Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Weak or slow heating
• Uneven heating
• No heating at all
• Unusual humming associated with a no-heat condition

Check Before Replacing

• Place one microwave-safe cup of cold water in the cavity and run the oven for about 2 minutes at full power; verify whether the water heats. This is only a functional check and does not identify the failed component.
• Confirm the door closes completely and that the control is set correctly before attributing a no-heat condition to the magnetron.
• For qualified service personnel only: disconnect power before inspection and do not access the magnetron or high-voltage circuit unless the high-voltage capacitor has been properly discharged. Check for loose or damaged connections and inspect the related high-voltage components before replacement.
