Take the cover off and check the fuses.

dis-assemble waveguide and clean thoroughly. try again. if no-go then failed magnetron. get new unit.

The most common causes for a lack of heating are a bad door switch, a loose connection on the magnetron, a bad magnetron, bad connection on the control circuit board, a bad relay on the board, bad high voltage diode, or bad high voltage transformer.

This is usually caused by either a bad door switch, a loose door switch mount, or a problem on the control panel.
Even though a door switch clicks, it may still be bad inside. Its continuity must be checked.
Door switch or mount trouble can be caused by slamming the door or by opening the door while it's cooking without hitting the Stop pad first.

Yes, I'm trying to help you. Sorry about all the questions, but it's part of diagnosis.
Generally, the most common causes of a failure to heat are:
- bad door switches or door switch mounts
- loose or corroded connection at the magnetron
- problem or loose connection on the control unit circuit board
- bad magnetron
- shorted high voltage diode
At this point, it seems pretty clear that the problem is in the high voltage section, most likely the magnetron, but possibly the high voltage diode or transformer..
Here are some links you or someone you know can use for test help to find the defective component, but read their safety warnings first:

Magnetron is done. This part heats the food. GE microwaves tend to have them stop working quite frequently. They basically make up the majority of the cost of the microwave, so instead of replacing the magnetron, you would be better off getting a new microwave.
