This video will show you how to seperate the door into 3 pieces to clean the glass from the inside, as well how to replace the handle(2 additional screws to remove)

Thanks for this video. Totally helped and now my wife thinks I'm the best.😊

Than you so much. Every other video shows that just taking off the trim panel reveals the handle screws. Mine did not , so had to go through all the other steps you outlined. Don't know why I keep buying GE stuff. My door handle was plastic as were the holding bracket. Both of which broke. I got a brushed nickel handle from Wal Mart online for $7 delivered. It looks really nice on the microwave. Thanks again for the instructions.

Thank you for this video it’s exactly what I need to do to my door and your video is the only one I’ve found that has actually helped. Mine has so many streaks I hate the way it looks. The only problem is for some reason I can’t remove the door like you did, it does slide up but doesn’t detach. I have a GE JVM3162DJ2BB. It looks just like the one in the video but I can’t take it off that way. Do you think I can do this with the door still attached?

You have to open the door completely, and lift up and out. The top comes out first, than the bottom

@@besicm1 thank you I’ll try again I just don’t want to rip my microwave off the wall 😂

The trick is not shown in the video. The upper panel does not "pull off". You remove the screws (mine had 3 screws) on top, then SLIDE the upper panel to the left. If you pull straight out hard enough without first sliding to the left, you will break the retaining tabs. After removing the upper panel, then you can remove the door by lifting off the hinges.

You have got to be kidding me. I mean seriously what the gdmfs, you skip right past separating the two parts! So did it not work out the way you explained or are we supposed to believe you had another reason for just skipping past the most important part of separating these two pieces. Maybe it was so easy and quick that you felt like we didn't need to know? Or did you somehow mess it up because of another unexplained mysterious skip? No video, I mean an absence of any video, would have been better than what you left me with. Unbelievable!😡

You try filming with one hand and working with the other! It comes apart as I explained in the video. I have done it hundreds of times on this type of microwave the same way. What exactly are you stuck on?
