I just had a JVM3160DF4WW GE microwave oven installed. To my horror, there appears to be no simple way to turn off all blasted beeping forever.
It looks like the only option is to disassemble it and cut the wire to the beeper. Is that the case? If so, any tips about doing that? I have seen some YouTube videos on disassembling GE microwaves as well as videos on disconnecting the beeper (do GE microwaves use a standard beeper?).
Also, I hear that the capacitor can remain charged. What is the best way to be sure it is discharged? Can’t I just unplug the microwave some time beforehand and give it time to discharge? If so, how long beforehand to be safe?
Thank you for whatever advice you can provide.
