Hello Stephanie.
Get a new filter and try again.
Otherwise scrap the micro.
It the filter plate rusted through, or is it burnt?
The microwave's Magnetron-wave-guide is just behind this filter plate.
Looks like a small tube with a silvery cap with hole in center.
Very hazardous condition here.
The high energy from it is damped by the filter.
Is there food in the micro when arcing happens?
An empty micro will arc.

SOURCE: break my glass plate inside my micro wave

You might do better to replace the microwave. My plate broke and would cost $27 to replace. I bought a new microwave for $40.

SOURCE: I have LG model number

The turntable may have a belt that is broken or sliped off, some models may have a motor for this and it may be dead. Most microwaves have a service sheet folded up inside, remove the outer cover and look around. Unplug the MW before going inside. Replace the outer cover before testing your repairs.

The phone numbers I received from you are wrong numbers. They are not Daewoo. Can someone out there refer me to the right company to find a plate for my Daewoo microwave, Model KOR-1B4H.

While i was trying to prepare some coffe in the microwave after 2 minutes i opened the micro and the coffe was all over and now it's not functioning well? Can it be repared ?

Yeah a kind of. If the wave cover plate is only went bad(A rectangular plate inside the food chamber).
If you have little idea how to use voltmeter then only you can try to fix it.Otherwise,without any experience it is very risky.
First check the magnetron which produce microvave.(check two terminal resistance in isolated sysem).MAKE SURE YOU DISCHARGE CAPACITOR FIRST .MICRVAVE CONTAINS 5000V IN IT.

If magnetron is good then just clean the wave guide and replace the rectangular plate(wave cover).

it should work okay then

Thanks

My microwave starts however food does not heat up.

Micro wave as the name suggests produces heat when the micro waves aimed at an object causes the water molecules inside the object to vibrate hence producing heat.The gadget responsible is the magnetron. If your magnetron is not receiving ht voltage or receiving but faulty, then your micro wave wont work please take precaution when opening micro wave due to high voltage caps that remain charged sometimes even when it is off.check the high voltage fuse/ diode and capacitor if they are fine and the step up trans former o.k then the only option is to replace the magnetron

Micro is turning on ok and working but not heating up,what would cause that? light is on ok and plate is turning, just not heating

How old is your m wave? Sounds like you need to replace it .You can get a new one from Wal mart for under 75.00.and that will get you the big 1 sq.ft one..I once broke the plate in my m/wave and believe it or not they wanted more for the new plate than I paid for the M/wave BEFORE you do that check your power level settings perhaps it was turned down

Arcing inside and there is now a small hole on the panel side. Is this fixable?

Hi,

It looks like there's lightning (arcing) inside my microwave When you see arcing inside your microwave, it's because of food or liquid left in the cavity or on the wave-guide cover:

  • If the wave guide has any burn spots, replace it and clean the unit well.

  • If the cavity has any burn spots, spot-sand it smooth and touch it up with microwave interior paint.

Note… If there are any burn holes in the cavity, don't use the unit-seek help from a qualified appliance repair technician.

Thanks for contacting Fixya
