Interestingly, a friends light went out in the microwave and the turntable
stopped as well, apparently in that case both work off a low voltage and the
fuse had merely blown when the bulb died.
Still nobody said these were not made to a price!

how universal are the "so called" universal motors?

Wouldn't a synchronous motor have "some difficulty" running on DC?

which is unlikely to be an available choice in the context. Just
a kind of brush using motor.

The phrasing of "universal microwave motor" rather than "microwave
universal motor" implies to me more about what it's intended to fit,
that how it works internally, but interested to hear other opinions ...

OIC, a totally dfferent animal! (In my defence, you did say 'universal
motor'.)
