Description

This magnetron is the microwave's high-voltage tube that produces the microwaves used for cooking. Replacing a failing magnetron restores heating performance and stops cold or weakly heating cycles. What it does:

• Converts high-voltage electrical energy into microwave radiation to heat food
• Common symptom: microwave runs but does not heat or heats weakly
• May also cause loud humming, arcing, or burning smells when failing
• Works with the oven's high-voltage circuit and waveguide to deliver microwave energy

What's included: One magnetron (single unit) Install notes:

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before servicing
• The high-voltage capacitor can retain a dangerous charge—discharge before touching components
• Do not operate the microwave without the protective cover and proper grounding in place
