If you look at your owners’ manual you may find that this part is in warranty for 10 years. If it is then yes it is worth fixing and if its not still in warranty the repair bill will be high unless you do-it-yourself. Note if it is in warranty you will have to hire a GE warranty service man and you will still have to pay for the labor.[URL="http://www.appliance-repair-it.com/microwave-repair.html"][/URL]
