Troubleshooting your GE range/microwave combo when the broiler won't work

A broken broiler element or failed electronic oven control board could prevent the broiler from working in an range/microwave combo.

A broken oven temperature sensor probe also may prevent the broil element from heating or staying on in oven. When the oven temperature sensor probe fails, you'll likely see temperature control problems in the bake mode as well.

You can test the oven temperature sensor probe by unplugging the range and measuring sensor probe resistance using a multimeter. You should measure about 1,080 ohms of resistance through most probes at room temperature. Refer to the tech sheet for the probe's resistance specification for your range. You can likely find the tech sheet in the control console or taped to the back of the range. Replace the oven temperature sensor probe if you don't measure the correct resistance through the probe. If the probe is okay, then you may need to replace the electronic oven control board.

Microwave safety precautions for your GE range/microwave combo

• Never attempt to repair internal microwave components inside the microwave oven cabinet. The high-voltage capacitor inside the microwave retains a lethal electrical charge even when the microwave power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet. Have a service technician repair any internal microwave component failure
• Do not operate the microwave with the door open. Interlock switches should prevent the microwave from starting with the door open.
• Don't use the microwave if you see door damage. A damaged door can allow microwave radiation to leak out of the cavity. Have a service technician repair the microwave door and test the door for radiation leakage.
• Clean food residue out of the microwave cavity often.
