Microwave won't heat or makes humming noise? This capacitor works with the magnetron to generate heat. Moderate difficulty repair, 30-45 minutes.
Microwave not heating but runs normally? A failed magnetron is the likely cause. This repair restores heating function. Moderate DIY difficulty.
After checking on the internet for the probable causes of the noise in my microwave and confirming the diagnosis by listening to where the noise was coming from, I decided to replace the magnetron. A few days later, the part from AppliancePartsPros.com was delivered to my door. I've never repaired a microwave before, but it wasn't too difficult; I just kept removing parts until I could get to the one I was looking for. After buttoning everything back up, the oven worked perfectly. And only 2... Read more
Microwave not heating? This magnetron generates microwave energy to cook food. Moderate DIY repair—requires disassembly and careful handling of parts.
Printed out and followed the online written instructions and referred to the video several times. For us, it was a two person job to safely support the front of the microwave while removing the two mounting bolts which go through the cabinet from above. After tilting the front down, lifting the back up and off of the wall bracket required both of us. Not overly heavy, just awkward. The replacing of the magnetron and diode went fine, just follow the instructions. There are lots of screws to... Read more
Microwave won't heat but runs and hums? A failed magnetron is the likely cause. This part generates microwave energy. DIY repair takes about 2 hours.
I talked to the local appliance repair and they told me it would be $190 for the part. I asked them how much for them to fix it and it was over $300. That was if I took it to them. Appliance part had the part for $130 and it took me 2hrs. Read more
