My GE profile spacemaker microwave w LCD touch screen has a fan problem. the exhaust fan is too slow. High is equivalent to low on my previous ge xl 1800. The boost button works just as good as my previous one but the hi med and low are extremely slow. Low is almost not even on. Is there any way to increase the speed digitaly since this micro is all programable?
You likely need to replace the fan motor.

The magnetron almost shortening , the diode sound beeping / replace magnetron.

Home depot sells the lights as I believe reffigeratro bulds. bring the old ones with you to match them up. i got a price from an appliance parts place of $40. The depot was like $6.

Remove the light cover /filter opening.Its very easy to remove.The filter will be removed by hand and may give you the best reach.
Please rate this !!

Sadly, GE does not make individual parts available for these controllers, so they cannot be repaired.
You have to replace the control panel sub-assembly (part number WB07X10733 in your case) and the best price I've found on that is $370.32 here (compared to $483.25 direct from GE).
In my opinion, this does not do much to inspire brand loyalty...
Or you may be able to find a whole oven on eBay for about that or less.
Sorry to bear bad news. Good luck.

Hi and welcome to FixYa. I am Kelly
When a micrwave quite during use it does have a tendancy to make the user wonder just what happened. There are several components that can cause this symptom.
1. The High Voltage Capacitor
http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/model.aspx?model_id=5227571&diagram_id=22974428#d22974428
(item 49)
2. The diode in the diode cable has failed
(Item 50 in the link above)
3. An open thermostat (Item 110) of above link (there are 2 of them)
4. A failed Magnatron (Item 73) This is pretty rare that a magnatron fails... It is usually something else.
Since you do not have any lights or appearance of power the fuse is probably blown.

(Item 47)
It can also be the duct thermostat item 27 but again this is a rare failure.
Usually what happens is either the HV Cap or the Diode in the Diode wire fails.
IF you even attempt repair... make sure to short across the HV Cap terminals at least 3 times. The first time if the cap is good it will really make a bang and spark.
To test the diode wire... "unhook / disconnect one end of it and use a meter to read it using resistance. One direction it should read. Reverse the leads and it will appear open.
There are a few other things like interlocks, HV transformer and control panel board that can cause this but again the instances of failure are pretty slim.
Replace the 20A fuse in the fuse holder. IF it blows again either the diode or the Cap is most likely the problem
An informational note... IF someone opened the door slowly without pressing pause / stop it can via the door interlock switch blow the fuse.
Hopefully this give you a clue as to what has happened and what to look for as far as repair and expected expenses.
Thanks for choosing FixYa.
