Do-It-Yourself Story

First checked the breaker at the electrical panel and it wasn't tripped. I then unplugged and opened the microwave to check the fuse for continuity and it was fine. Next I checked the cavity thermistor and it was open. Upon further investigation I noticed the cavity thermistor was slightly deformed as well. After ensuring the internal capacitor was fully discharged, I check the rest of the microwave over for possible additional component failures. Everything else was found to be satisfactory, so I found the correct replacement cavity thermistor part on AppliancePartsPros.com and placed my order. After receiving the new cavity thermistor I checked the continuity to ensure it was operational then I installed it into my microwave and tested the microwave's operation. As soon as I plugged it in I noticed the display was functioning again. Then I placed a cup of water in the microwave to further test it's operation. The microwave is back up and running! Although I am trained in electronics I found the following YouTube video very helpful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1tdj3OnlXU Good Luck!
