More likely a failed power supply. Its pretty crude normally. a large

The problem is its a very dangerous area to work on for many reasons as a

and really hard to get details of the circuit, at least back in the days of
yore.

Nearly all microwaves use the exact same HV circuit.
The diode is the most failure prone part of it, cheap & easy to replace. But the OP doesn't really want assistance as they've not provided the symptoms.
