This Part Fixes These Problems

Turntable Won't Turn

Motor fails to rotate the glass tray, causing the turntable plate to sit completely still during the entire cook cycle.

Grinding or Buzzing Noise

Worn motor gears produce loud grinding, humming, or buzzing sounds from beneath the turntable during microwave operation.

Intermittent Rotation

Turntable spins inconsistently — stops mid-cycle, moves only partially, or only rotates when the microwave first starts.

Uneven Heating

Food comes out with hot spots and cold spots because the turntable is not rotating to expose all areas of the food to microwave energy.

Product Description

Why Choose Our WB26X10038 Microwave Turntable Motor?

🔧
Built to OEM Specifications 21V AC, 50/60Hz, 4.0W synchronous drive motor — engineered to match original GE factory parameters for seamless drop-in replacement.
🔩
D-Shaped Metal Shaft (1/4") Features a precision 1/4-inch D-shaped metal shaft for a secure, non-slip connection to the turntable coupler — no adapter or modification needed.
🔄
Bidirectional CW/CCW Rotation Operates at a constant 2.5/3 RPM in both clockwise and counter-clockwise directions to ensure even heat distribution throughout every cook cycle.
🔌
Quick-Disconnect Terminals Equipped with two 3/16-inch male spade terminals for fast, tool-free electrical connection — plug in and go.
🛡️
Wide Brand & Model Coverage Compatible with GE JVM / EMO / DVM / CGLMV series over-the-range and countertop microwaves, plus Kenmore (363 & 721 prefix), Hotpoint, and RCA models.
🤫
Low-Noise Internal Gear Set High-temperature-resistant materials and a precision internal gear set eliminate the grinding and clicking sounds caused by a worn-out original motor.

💡 Pro Tip: How to Diagnose a Failed Turntable Motor

Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:

⚠️ Turntable plate has completely stopped rotating during cooking

⚠️ Grinding, humming, or buzzing noise coming from beneath the turntable

⚠️ Turntable rotates intermittently or only moves a partial turn then stops

⚠️ Food heats unevenly with hot and cold spots in every cycle

🔍 Quick Test: Unplug the microwave, remove the glass tray and roller ring, then use a multimeter set to the resistance (Ω) range and probe the two motor terminals. A good motor reads continuity (typically 2,000–5,000 Ω). An open reading (OL / no continuity) confirms a failed motor — replace with WB26X10038. Always place a cup of water inside the microwave cavity when running a function test after installation.

Questions & Answers

Will this WB26X10038 motor fit my GE JVM1660BB over-the-range microwave?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 15, 2024
Yes. The WB26X10038 turntable motor is confirmed compatible with the entire JVM1660 series, including the JVM1660BB variants. Verify the D-shaped shaft on your original motor before ordering — if yours has a square shaft, you will need part WB26X10037 instead.
My turntable makes a grinding noise but still turns slowly — is the motor definitely bad?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 20, 2023
A grinding or buzzing noise combined with slow or labored rotation is a classic sign of a failing turntable motor. First remove the glass tray and roller ring and check both for cracks or debris. If the tray and ring are fine, the motor's internal gear set is worn out. Replace with WB26X10038 and the noise should stop immediately.
What are the electrical specs of the WB26X10038 motor? I want to verify it matches my old unit.
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 8, 2025
The WB26X10038 operates at 21 Volts AC, 50/60 Hz, 4.0 Watts, at 2.5/3 RPM. It features a 1/4-inch D-shaped metal shaft and supports bidirectional CW/CCW rotation. You can also verify your old motor's label — if it reads SSM-16H, MDPJ030AF, ST16F, or SM16F, this is a direct match.
Is this motor compatible with Kenmore microwaves, or only GE branded units?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 22, 2024
Yes. GE manufactures many Kenmore / Sears microwave models, and the WB26X10038 is compatible with Kenmore models carrying a 363 or 721 model number prefix. It also fits Hotpoint and RCA microwaves that share the same motor specification. Always cross-check your full model number before ordering.
How difficult is it to replace the WB26X10038 myself, and what tools do I need?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 10, 2026
This is a beginner-friendly repair that most homeowners complete in 5–10 minutes. You only need a Phillips screwdriver to remove the bottom panel screws (typically 6–7 screws) and 2 motor mounting screws. No soldering, no cutting, and no special tools are required — the electrical connections are simple snap-on spade terminals. Always unplug the microwave before starting.

We typically respond within 1 business day. Include your appliance model number for the fastest answer.
