Please do these test and fix it. God bless you
Ernesto, YOU JUST SAVED ME at least $85.00! Your simple suggestion about unplugging a GE CVM2072SM3SS in order to clear up an 'infinte loop' in the control panel touch screen. Thank you!

SOURCE: Some buttons work, some don't.
The keypad may be bad. Most often they go bad due to moisture from cleaners being sprayed directly on them or steam from the cooktop when the vent fan is not used.
They can also go bad when the unit is stored in an unheated environment where there's a lot of air temperature change (hot during the day, cold at night, etc.)
It may also be some residue on the connections where the keypad plugs into the control board. Unplugging then replugging the keypad can sometimes clean them.
In other cases, a new keypad is needed.

There's no other reset function. If a reset (unplugging) does not correct it, it will need to be repaired.
If it's less than one year old, it should be fully covered under warranty.
I'd suggest contacting the manufacturer to get it fixed free. GE Customer Service is here.

There
should be a "mini-manual" (tech sheet) hidden inside the unit
behind the
control panel or hidden on the left side behind the grille, which is
very helpful when troubleshooting, testing, and locating components.
I would suspect a blown fuse or the magnetron;s thermal cutout / thermal fuse.

I HAVE KENMORE 665/61629 LIGHT STAYS ON. AND DO NOT COOKS. AND THE FAN DOES NOT WORK.
SOURCE: capacitor burned out? horrible burnt smell.
YOUR GOING TO NEED A NEW MICROWAVE . the cap may be bad but the real bad smell you have is most likely the HV tranformer , if the magntron shorts to ground there will be a small smell if you dont pick up on that and your microwave is set to run another few mins the transformer will overheat and burn , then the fuse blows and the controls shut down . the end result , you have more parts bad than you have good . if you google " GE SPACEMAKER MICROWAVE FIRE ' you will see your not the only one , its getting to be COMMON . good luck
SOURCE: Touch sreen won't work
I would suspect it either needs a hard reset (unplugging it for a few minutes, then trying again) or the membrane keypad is failing.
Instead of JMV1540BMC01, it would probably be one of these models:
JVM1540DM1BB
JVM1540DM1CC
JVM1540DM1WW
JVM1540DM2BB
JVM1540DM2CC
JVM1540DM2WW
JVM1540DN1BB
JVM1540DN1CC
JVM1540DN1WW
JVM1540DN2BB
JVM1540DN2CC
JVM1540DN2WW
JVM1540LM1CS
JVM1540LM2CS
JVM1540LN1CS
JVM1540LN2CS
JVM1540SM1SS
JVM1540SM2SS
JVM1540SN1SS
JVM1540SN2SS
