GE Microwave Won't Work After Cleaning

Microwaves are one of the many conveniences of modern life that often taken for granted. They provide a fast and easy way to make full meals in mere minutes. GE is a popular maker of microwave ovens available from major retailers across the nation. However, sometimes even the most depended-upon appliances do not function as they should, even after routine maintenance like cleaning. GE recommends some troubleshooting steps to attempt to resolve the issue yourself so you do not have to involve customer support unless absolutely necessary.
