Just out of warranty 2.2 cubic foot Genius microwave just quit. (2+

Pad and clock works, but when it powers on to cook. it makes a buzzing
noise about 5 seconds in and shuts off, no ding.
Made in China crap.....
I realize the magnetron has a 5 year warranty but it's the labor that
get you .....
Worth fixing?

I'm not a microwave fix it guy (but not for lack of effort)--but is the
magnetron cooling fan working--can you hear it running?--perhaps its
hungup, resulting in a thermal switch overheating and shutting down the
unit after 5 seconds of run time.
