GE Profile Advantium 120 oven: Clock is on and stuck, unit will not work otherwise.

Storm blew though this morning. Clock appears to have frozen at 6:49am. Not advancing. No response from any buttons, light doesn't come on when you open the door. Tried all our breakers to the kitchen, and the clock is still on. Any thoughts?

    Didn't want to have to pull the unit out of the wall (built in). Feeling stupid, now, though: I went through the rest of the breakers, found our microwave on a completely unexpected circuit. flipped it off, left it off for about 5 minutes. Now working fine. Thanks!

Unplug the microwave oven for 60 seconds to reset microprocessor, hopefully this will cure the problem.

How long does it run before it fails? Does it look like the display is getting scrambled characters? I'm leaning toward a bad magnetron, but it may be more or less than that. If you can give more details and especially the actual full model number (as opposed to the model name Advantium 120) that would help. Thanks!

You may consider using epoxy to "glue" the handle back into place. The epoxy will be stronger than the handle itself. If you do this get the one minute epoxy

Most likely a blown fuse inside the MW. It will be on the control board or on the incoming power line inside the cabinet.

My GE Profile Advantium 120 microwave sparks when I try to sterlize a kitchen sponge

Wayne,
If your sponge has any metal in it, that would be the cause of the sparking. The only other thing that could cause sparks is grease built up behind the wave guide cover or the magnetron is going bad.

Need to unlock the control panel on my GE advantium 120

The first thing I would suggest is a hard reset. Unplug the unit for a minute or so. Then plug it back in, set the clock and try again.

If that doesn't work, leave it unplugged for about 5 minutes.

Then I would refer you to the owner's manual.

If for some reason you don't have yours, y
ou can download GE owner's manuals and installation instructions here.

I have a GE profile advantium 120 . The panel lights up I do not get an error code the timer works but it does not heat up. what could cause this

Check your power setting, making sure that you are cooking at 100%. Adjust if necessary.
It could also be a bad magnetron.

GE Profile Advantium 120 Oven not working; less than year old!!

No need to scan now...

We got the service manual for this model and have uploaded it to our site here to help you.

You will need the
free Acrobat Reader to view or print it in case you don't have it.

I'm suspecting the keypad or a door switch or switch mount issue.

Also, you can usually find helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your full model number here.
