GE PROFILE SPACEMAKER 2 JVM2070SH001 MANUAL HOW DO i REPLACE CHARCOAL FILTER?

You are right the control panel is very expensive, you can try the filter to see if you can get it working, but I must admit a new microwave oven sounds appealing.

The turnable motor must be replaced, go to www.ebay.com Type: make and model of microwave oven, refine search to turntable motor.

Replace the burned-out bulb with a 120 volt, 30-watt incandescent bulb (WB36X10198), available from your GE supplier

• 1 To replace the oven light,

first disconnect the power at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel or pull the plug.

• 2 Remove the top grille by

taking out the 2 screws that hold it in place.

• 3 Remove the charcoal

filter (if present) to access the light cover (see Remove Charcoal Filter section).

• 4 Remove the light cover

located near the center of the oven that holds the bulb. Remove the bulb by gently turning. Replace with the same size and type bulb.

• 5 Replace the light cover

and charcoal filter (if present).

• 6 Replace the grille and

screws. Connect electrical power to the oven.

That's covered in the owner's manual. If for some reason you don't have yours, you can download GE owner's manuals and installation instructions here.

You can find handy exploded views and order parts (including filters) here.

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.

top of the front grill there are 2 screws. remove those together with the grill. install filter in location underneath.

This of course assumes that your oven has the optional Recirculating Charcoal Filter Kit (part # JX81C available here) already installed.

The grease filter is changed from the bottom of the unit.

The charcoal filter is changed as follows:

To Remove Charcoal Filter
To remove the charcoal filter, disconnect power
at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel or
pull the plug.
Remove the top grille by removing the screws
that hold it in place and sliding the grille to the
left (opening the door makes grille removal
easier). Slide the filter towards the front of the
oven and remove it.
To Install Charcoal Filter
To install a new filter, remove plastic and other
outer wrapping from the new filter.
Insert the filter into the top opening of the oven as
shown. It will rest at an angle on 2 side support tabs
and in front of the right rear tab. Replace the grille
and screws.

Charcoal filter is behind the grille at the top of the oven. Find screws in front or at top of the grille and remove them.  Remove the grille by shifting to one side and pulling forward with the door open.  You should see a slot where the filter is inserted.  Remove old filter and replace with new.  Note which side of old filter is up and position the new one the same way.  The filter sits on tabs at the side and back.   Replace grille and screws.
