GE PNM1971SR1SS microwave filter fit guide
GE lists charcoal filter WB02X10956 and grease filter WB02X11534 as different diagram items. Glass tray WB39X10038 is explicitly replaced by WB49X10063. The page provides component identity only and no microwave internal service steps.
Safety boundary
- This is a model-to-part identity reference, not an installation guide.
- Do not open a microwave cabinet or handle internal microwave components; use qualified service if a listed item requires internal access.
Compatibility requires a direct model listing, explicit supersession, or equivalent manufacturer evidence.
Models explicitly covered
These model identities have the source evidence listed below. Read the part decision and suffix limits before ordering.

Required identifiers
- Complete appliance model: PNM1971SR1SS
- Manufacturer diagram section and item number
- Original and replacement identifiers exactly as shown in the GE model diagram
Compatibility rules
- This guide reports GE Appliances Parts diagram fitment for exact model PNM1971SR1SS; keep the full model suffix when checking fit.
- Only a replacement arrow explicitly shown by GE is described as a supersession; no cross-model inference is made.
- Part identity is not an instruction to install or repair the component. Use the exact owner manual for permitted filter or accessory care; arrange qualified service when access requires disassembly or electrical work.
- For this over-the-range microwave, this record only identifies listed exterior accessories and filters; it gives no microwave cabinet-opening or internal repair steps.
Never assume
- Do not infer fit for neighboring model suffixes or a different color/revision from this exact diagram.
- Do not treat a grease filter as interchangeable with a charcoal/odor filter; GE lists these as separate diagram items where shown.
- Do not infer that a symptom proves any listed part has failed.
- Do not treat a superseded part number as cross-model fit evidence.
Exact-model diagram items
Charcoal odor filter: GE diagram item 44 lists WB02X10956. Microwave glass tray (superseded part number): GE diagram item 46 lists WB39X10038 → WB49X10063 (explicit GE replacement). Grease filter: GE diagram item 60 lists WB02X11534.
Fit boundary
The diagram lists charcoal and grease filters separately and maps only the glass tray from WB39X10038 to WB49X10063. Do not treat the glass-tray replacement as a filter supersession or infer fit for other PNM1971 suffixes.
GE lists these rows under exact model PNM1971SR1SS. The source page does not establish fit for other suffixes; verify the full appliance label and source diagram before ordering.
Component function and access
GE lists microwave vent grease filtration separately from charcoal odor filtration. Match the filter function and diagram number; no cabinet-opening or internal replacement instructions are provided here.
