Default Sears Microwave stopped Cooking

Bought in 1999 it is a microwave/oven unit.
I have checked the following parts & they have readings on my ohm
meter.
Door switch sensors, upper & lower. There are two separate sensors for
the bottom switch. They read totally different from each other
depending if door is open or shut.
HV Capacitor
Replaced Diode (connecting to capacitor) could not get a reading on ohm
meter & guy at parts store said this is normally why they stop heating.
Magnatron
Fan runs
Heating sensors (one on top of magnetron & other just inside unit)

Bad: Turntable motor, I took it out & it had an infinity reading.

Question what else is there to check to see why the microwave is not
cooking?
Thanks for any insight
Garry
