Symptoms of a bad Magnetron include:
- The microwave not heating food
- Strange noises during operation
- Burning smell or smoke
- The microwave shutting off unexpectedly
This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore models.

Didn't heat. Harry W. • Maple Park , IL • January 21, 2018
My son told me that almost all the microwave ovens that came into the repair center he worked at, 15 years ago, had a defective magnetron. I ordered a magnetron, and sat back until one shipped. The one that came, the first time, was in a small factory cardboard box, which was in a large bubble-pak Fedex envelope; which didn't show any signs of abuse. Inside, however, the factory box was beat up. Removing the magnetron, I noticed that the socket, as well as its' pins, was bent, and loose in the...

Symptoms include:
- Intermittent cooking or complete failure to energize the tube
- Error codes appearing on the control panel display
- Buzzing or humming noises emitting from internal circuitry
This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore microwaves.

Our microwave made a "pop" sound and stopped working/ Daniel D. • Chesterfield , MO • September 12, 2020
I have a multimeter so I was able to check the fuse per website recommendations and it was blown. However, the capacitor on the microwave was also original so I elected to replace the capacitor, fuse, and the ground protect diode. The repair was very simple (making sure the capacitor was discharged before replacing) and the microwave is now up and running again. Excellent trade to buy $40 worth of parts rather than a new $400 microwave. One nit - Kenmore puts a screw in the back that...

Loud while heating Rick D. • Westville , IN • May 08, 2017
Checked Magnetron, capacitor, and diode. All checked ok. Magnetron was very low resistance across connections and infinite to ground. Cap checked out at 1uF and diode was checked with a 9V battery and checked out ok with a 3V voltage drop. Ran microwave with cover off and noise seemed to be coming from the high voltage transformer. Replaced transformer. All good.

Glass fell out of its retainers and plastic clips holding the frame assembly to the door broke off Steve C. • Caledonia , WI • September 23, 2015
Careful placement of new screws into the inside of the outer door that now hold the frame assembly to the door secured the frame assembly to the outer door. All of the other parts I bought and replaced were a waste of money. I figured since I had them I might as well install them anyways. Easier than sending them back since I had the whole thing apart anyways. The part I really needed was no longer available, the outside door. The glass reinstalled into the retainers in the door without a...
