Microwave stopped heating
(pj) wrote in message ...
Hi,
All it does is make a VERY loud, whirring sound
when I try to use it. I say loud, because it has never sounded this way
before. The turntable still rotates, but nothing else happens.
A copy...
Q - The microwave makes a loud "hum or buzz" noise but will not heat
up the food?
A - 9 times out of 10 this is usually this is a bad magnetron, the
other time is sometimes a bad high voltage diode.
This may sound like a dumb question, but where exactly IS the fuse? The
manual neglects to tell me that. (This is a countertop model, not an
over-the-range type.)
The fuse is right in side the unit, but if the fuse lets go the entire
unit ( clock, lights everthing ) would go off.
Can anyone offer any advice, other than the usual "replace it, it's time!"?
Thanks in advance.
