Technician was able to repair the refrigerator by replacing the seal and cleaning the motor. He decided that it didn’t need a new fan. Very prompt service.

Amazing service! Emil did such a great job repairing my front loading washer. The door gasket needed to be changed. When I used the washer the next, we still had a leak. He made the extra effort to come back that day and found we also had a leaking hose, which he repaired on the spot. Amazing customer service A+.

A+ Appliance Repair saved Thanksgiving! 🦃 Our refrigerator died TWO DAYS before hosting 20 people. Called in a panic for fridge repair near me and they understood the emergency. Sam came out same-day to our Georgetown Washington DC home, diagnosed a failing compressor, and worked late to fix it. He even helped reorganize our food back in the fridge. These people are lifesavers - professional, fast, and they genuinely care. Worth every penny!

My Kenmore gas wall oven would not heat. When I called, the young lady (Bernadette) that answered was so kind and attentive. Very professional, friendly, and efficient. Found and explained the issue to me, politely asked if I wanted the service for the quoted price and after consent, fixed problem. I was very pleased. Thank you, A+👍🏾

I recently had my fridge repaired, and the experience was excellent! The technician arrived promptly and diagnosed the issue quickly. The repair itself was done in no time, and my fridge was back to working perfectly. The service was efficient, professional, and hassle-free. I’m very happy with the quick turnaround and would highly recommend them to anyone needing a fast and reliable fridge repair!

When a GE microwave runs but will not heat

This is the most common GE microwave fault. The plate turns and the light is on. After two minutes the coffee is still cold. GE's support page gives two checks first. Make sure you did not set the kitchen timer instead of a cook time. Then check that the door is shut tight.

If both are fine, a part has failed. The usual one is the magnetron, the tube that turns power into microwaves. It wears out over time. The high voltage diode and capacitor feed it, and each can fail. A door switch with a burned contact can let the fan run and block the heat. Our General Electric appliance repair page lists the rest of the GE line.

Why this is not a home repair

A microwave stores a strong charge in its capacitor. It can stay there with the cord pulled. That charge can badly hurt you. Our techs drain it with the right tool before they reach inside. Please leave the outer cover screwed on.

A microwave that will not start

GE explains that the door must close on its safety switches before the oven can run. A microwave has more than one of these switches. If one fails, pressing Start does nothing. A worn door latch or a cracked hook gives the same result. So does a blown main fuse, which often follows a bad switch.

A blank display is a different fault. We check the outlet, the fuse and the control board. GE suggests pulling the plug for a while as a reset. For an over-the-range unit, the plug is in the cabinet above.

Over-the-range models do two jobs

An over-the-range GE is a microwave and a vent hood. It has a fan, lights and grease filters on the bottom. Those parts have their own faults:

  • A vent fan that starts by itself. On many models a heat sensor turns it on when the range below gets hot.
  • A fan that will not run, from a failed motor or board relay.
  • Cooktop lights that stay dark with good bulbs.
  • A door handle that has cracked or pulled off.

The unit hangs from a wall plate and bolts through the cabinet. Taking one down is a two-handed job. We bring it down, fix it and hang it back.

Sensor cooking that stops early

On sensor cycles the oven waits for steam from the food. GE notes the sensor will not work when the oven is already hot. If sensor reheat always ends too soon or runs too long, the humidity sensor may be bad. Timed cooking still works in that case.

Sparks inside the oven

Sparks usually come from the small cover on the side wall. It is called a waveguide cover. Grease on it burns and arcs. A chipped spot in the paint can spark too. A new cover is a small part. A hole burned through the metal wall is not fixable.

Microwave visit price and whether to repair

We come to the house, test the unit and give you a fixed price. Labor and parts are both in it. A microwave diagnostic at a house is $79. Approving the repair wipes that charge. Same-day times are open most days between 6 AM and 9 PM. A+ is an independent shop. Microwave techs are insured, licensed and background checked.

A small countertop GE is often cheaper to replace. One that hangs over the range, or is built into a cabinet, is usually worth a repair, since it matches the kitchen and the cutout. We will give you both numbers.

Los Angeles owners can start at our California service page. GE microwave calls also come from Houston, D.C., Chicago and Northern Virginia. See microwave repair for other makes. If the range under it also acts up, read GE range repair. Wash the grease filters under an over-the-range GE monthly. It keeps the fan motor alive.
