GE Microwave range hood aluminum grease filter WG02F05544

Genuine OEM washable aluminum grease filter for GE microwave range hoods. Approximately 5-1/16 x 7-5/8 x 1/16 inches; filters grease from vented microwave exhaust air.

❓ Is This the Right Part?

This is the correct fix if ALL of the following are true:

• ✔ Microwave powers on and heats normally
• ✔ Fan runs but ventilation seems reduced or greasy
• ✔ Existing filter is visibly clogged, bent, or damaged
• ✔ Filter dimensions match: 5-1/16" × 7-5/8" × 1/16"
• ✔ ONLY problem is poor grease filtration or blocked airflow through the filter

🔧 Common Symptoms

• Microwave vent fan running but not clearing smoke or steam effectively
• Visible grease buildup or discolouration on the filter mesh
• Grease dripping from the underside of the microwave during cooking
• Burning or smoky smell when using the vent fan
• Filter frame bent, broken, or tabs snapped off
• Routine maintenance replacement — recommended every 6–12 months with regular cooking

✔ If these symptoms match, this is the most likely failed or worn component in the ventilation system.

✔ In most cases, replacing this grease filter restores full ventilation performance immediately.

Do not operate the microwave without the grease filter installed.
