Mark October 10, 2011 for Model Number MMV4203DS00 Microwave will work one time when it cools down. After that inside cabinet gets hot, magnetron gets hot, but food does not.
1 Answer Hi Mark. Above the turntable tray is a stirrer cover held in place by a button part # DE66-20095B. Remove it and the cover. Is the stirrer blade broken? Rare but will not allow heat, part # is W10250840. The magnetron part # WPW10126786, capacitor part # 8206562, and the diode part # WPDE91-70063D all fire together to make 'Heat" . Usually there is a very noticeable growl noise along with no heat. Is the fan part # WPW10250841, working? Is the fan blade broken? Behind control assy.,not on top. Part # DE31-90051A. Examine all components. Thank you. Read More...
