Default What might be wrong with my microwave?

Thanks for the suggestion...I m facing a similar issue... Microwave used for twenty minutes on full power to defrost frozen spaghetti (probably shouldn't have done that) since then microwave cuts out after 30-40 seconds although once or twice a day it still goes on without cutting but doesn't really heat the food, sort of warms it up... I guess magnetron is on the blink....


Most likely a partially shorted transformer. A damaged thermal cutout is not impossible.
