-Oven heats weakly--won't boil a cup of water on high after 5 minutes

-Measures -10KV DC to case at Magnetron terminals on high (10 to 1 high-voltage divider measures 1KV on voltmeter)
-diode and capacitor appear to pass simple out of circuit tests
-magnetron did actually pass simple resistance tests
