Description

High-voltage magnetron that generates the microwave energy used to heat food in compatible countertop and over-the-range microwave ovens. Replacing a failed magnetron restores heating when the oven runs but doesn't cook. What it does:

• Produces the microwave energy that cooks food; a bad magnetron commonly causes little or no heating.
• Can be a root cause when the oven runs but food does not heat.
• Works with the high-voltage diode and capacitor—similar symptoms can come from those parts as well.

What's included: One magnetron. Install notes:

• High-voltage component — unplug the appliance and discharge the high-voltage capacitor before servicing; risk of severe electric shock.
• Remove outer cabinet and follow the OEM service manual for correct alignment and grounding; never operate the oven with covers or shielding removed.
• Verify related components (high-voltage diode, capacitor, door switches) when diagnosing to avoid unnecessary replacement.
