As it says above basically, my 2 yr old panasonic digital
microwave
has given up it's primary function of heating food.
Is it worth repairing, it only cost 70 quid and can possibly get
a
replacement for cheaper these days.
If I thought it was a simple fuse or something I'd have ago at
changing it.
Any suggestions?

Unless it's still under warranty I would suggest that it's
'beyond economical repair', with labour you'll end up paying more
a replacement will cost, the fact that most of the functions work
suggest that the megatron has expired - just wondering if someone
has tried heating foil rapped mince pies... :~o


I think you have been watch too much sci-fi

"the megatron has expired"

pmsl!


Fairly obvious he meant magnetron isn't it?

Yes Andy, I did manage to interpret what he meant but what
credibility does a reply have when the name of a basic component is
wrong?

More credibility than the person who picked up on a simple/silly
spelling mistake, could it be that the spelling was got wrong because
the person making the mistake can't always work out the correct
spelling (even with the aid of a spell checker [1]) because of
dyslexia - of course 'Mr Perfects' like you are to far up your own
arses to grasp the concept that not everyone is as perfect as you
are...

[1] there really is a need for a context driven spell checker
