Gordon for Model Number lmv2053sb My microwave is only 4 years old and everything works except there is NO HEAT. Is the fuse the problem?
Answer Hello Gordon, If the fuse were bad the unit would be completely dead. In the case of the unit working except for heating, the problem is a high voltage issue. This includes the control board, the high voltage transformer, the high voltage capacitor, the high voltage diode, the magnetron high temperature cutout, and the magnetron. One or more of these can be the issue. The only way to know for sure is to open the unit, discharge the high voltage capacitor to ground, and test the individual components. According to the manufacturer, there is no definitive test for the magnetron other than testing to ensure the terminals are not shorted to ground, (chassis). Read More...
