This magnetron capacitor is the microwave high-voltage capacitor that helps supply the magnetron with the pulse of energy needed to produce heat. Replacing a failing capacitor restores normal heating performance and reduces arcing or loud humming. What it does

• Stores and releases the high-voltage pulse required by the magnetron so the microwave can generate heat.
• Prevents unstable magnetron operation that can cause weak or no heating.
• Common symptoms of a failing capacitor: oven runs but doesn't heat, intermittent heating, loud buzzing/humming, or visible arcing inside the cavity.
• A failed capacitor can also cause blown internal fuses or tripped circuits.

• One capacitor.

• Disconnect power and verify the appliance is completely de-energized before servicing.
• Capacitors can hold dangerous charge; discharge the capacitor safely with an insulated tool.
• Use the exact replacement part and follow the appliance service manual for routing and connections.

• Use two people to remove/hang the microwave for safety
• Locate wall studs, level the plate, and fasten per your model's installation instructions with the correct hardware
• The microwave's rear tabs fully engage the plate before final tightening

This magnetron is the microwave's high-voltage tube that generates the microwaves responsible for heating food. Use it as a direct replacement when your microwave powers on but no longer heats properly. What it does:

• Generates the microwave energy that heats and cooks food inside the oven cavity.
• A failing magnetron commonly causes the oven to run but not heat; other signs can include weak or uneven heating.
• Can produce unusual humming, arcing or sparking inside the cavity, or a burning smell when failing.
• Works as part of the high-voltage circuit; other components affect overall function.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before servicing; the high-voltage capacitor must be safely discharged.
• Handle the magnetron carefully by the mounting flange—avoid touching the ceramic antenna or terminals.
• Verify exact part number compatibility with your model before ordering; some repairs require replacing other high-voltage components.

This stirrer cover rivet secures the microwave's stirrer cover in the ceiling of the oven cavity. A snug, intact cover helps protect the stirrer mechanism from splatters and keeps it properly positioned for consistent heating.

• Holds the stirrer cover firmly in place inside the cavity
• Helps prevent rattling noises from a loose or missing cover
• Can address issues like a sagging or fallen stirrer cover
• Replacing damaged or missing rivets supports even cooking performance

• Disconnect power to the microwave before servicing
• Access the interior cavity; support the cover while installing the rivet
• Insert through the cover and mounting hole; seat fully so the cover is secure
• Microwaves contain high-voltage components.
