Microwave won't stop running or starts when door closes? A faulty door switch is likely the cause. This safety switch is a 45-minute DIY fix.
The first symptom was our microwave would continue to run after the time was up. The light would go out, the turn table would stop but you could still hear the microwave running and whatever was in it would continue to cook. The only way to stop it was to open the door. It was intermittent at first but eventually it would always run no matter what as long as the door was closed. Several other posts referenced these switches as the problem. I just replaced both and problem gone. It turns out... Read more

Microwave won't start or heat but light works and timer counts down? A faulty monitor switch is often the cause. DIY repair typically under 30 minutes.
Microwave won't turn on or is completely dead? A blown fuse is often the cause. This safety fuse protects against power surges. Easy 5-minute DIY fix.
I read on line about other such ovens doing the same thing mine was doing, absolutely nothing! I even read stories of a major retailer telling customers to throw the microwave away. There's nothing you can do to fix it. After replacing a simple fuse that I ordered from you, the Advantium is as good as new. It took a grand total of 5 minutes to make the repair. The shipping cost more than the part, but it was all very worthwhile. Read more

Microwave not heating? The magnetron generates the radiation that cooks food. Moderate DIY repair—discharge capacitor first, then swap 3 screws.
14 year old GE Profile microwave wouldn't heat, but had power. Read reviews here. Ordered triumvirate of magnetron, capacitor, & diode. Was hoping not to need the capacitor as this was an expensive part; and if not needed to return to AppliancePartsPros, which has been SOP. After watching a couple YouTube videos of microwave capacitors being shorted, I made a capacitor discharge tool ordering 24W 100K Ohm resistor and high voltage test wires w/ alligator clips from amazon. At the same time,... Read more
Microwave not heating but lights and timer work? The high voltage diode converts AC to DC for the magnetron. DIY repair in 1-2 hours with basic tools.
Wife let me know the microwave was making grinding noise while I was in garage fixing her car starter, never a dull moment. Further questioning she also said it wan't heating the food. Due to being an odd sized built in $$ unit I had to have repaired. I was getting quotes in the $4-500 range for just the magnetron. I was pretty confident the magnetron was the issue and also ordered a new capacitor and diode since I was going to be in there and a lot of money ahead repairing myself. About... Read more
Microwave won't heat but runs? A faulty diode cable assembly prevents power conversion. DIYers report 10-minute fixes after diagnosing the issue.
Replaced the high voltage diode. You will need a special Torx screwdriver to remove the tamper resistant screws holding the cover. Once the cover is removed there should be a packet inside containing a schematic and detailed troubleshooting instructions. I used extreme caution to discharge the capacitor. The rest was simple. One screw and a push connector to remove and reinstall the diode. I fired it up and it was good as new. Thanks to AppliancepartsPros for the good guidance and extremely... Read more

Fix a microwave that won't heat or hums but doesn't start. This capacitor stores energy for the high-voltage circuit. Moderate DIY repair, 30-60 minutes.
Turntable stopped rotating or making grinding noise? This motor powers the carousel rotation for even heating. DIY repair in under 15 minutes.
When our turntable stopped rotating, I would hear a clicking sound each time I used our microwave, like something was not properly engaging in order to turn the glass tray. Even though our microwave was 10 years old, everything else worked fine. I did a little research on the internet and found a couple YouTube videos that showed replacing the small motor in the bottom of GE microwaves. I am not a mechanical person, but it looked fairly easy, so I decided to try it. The... Read more
If your microwave runs but won't heat food or makes grinding noises, the magnetron has likely failed. Moderate DIY repair requiring capacitor discharge.
Molded bracket that holds and aligns door interlock switches and latch levers behind the front panel. Replace if cracked, warped, or brittle plastic broke.
Replaced damaged switch but in the meantime broke part of the board latch. So, replaced that too. Read more
Microwave not heating or humming loudly? The high-voltage diode converts AC to DC for the magnetron. Repair takes 30-45 minutes with basic tools.
I replaced both the Magnetron and the high voltage diode. I now have a fully functional microwave. I received the parts on time and the quality was good. I would use appliance parts pro's again. Read more
