Microwave repair questions
Why does my microwave run but not heat?
The high voltage circuit has failed. The diode, magnetron, capacitor and transformer are tested in that order, along with thermal cutoffs that protect the magnetron.
Is it safe to repair a microwave myself?
No. The high voltage capacitor can hold a lethal charge even after the microwave is unplugged. Leave internal repairs to a trained technician.
Is it worth repairing an over the range microwave?
Usually yes when the fault is a switch, diode, fan or keypad, especially if a replacement would need a matching mounting plate and cabinet cutout.
