Can anyone confirm whether following microwave oven components are
dead
-diode hvr1x8019:tested with analog ohm meter-short both directions


** Dead for sure.

-rectifier 2x062h 8025:..open in both directions


** Probably OK.

Testing such high voltage diodes ( really a multi-diode stack ) requires
a source of voltage more than what a DMM or analogue ohm meter has
available.

Try connecting a 9 volt radio battery in both directions, while
monitoring current flow with your meter.

With some sort of current limiter, like a light bulb, of course.
