Turntable not working & keys "stick"

My Matag microwave (range hood model) is 8 years old. The turntable is not working and the key pad is having issues "sticking" on certain numbers. Is it worth it to try to repair it - or just get a new one?

8 years old, huh? In my experience, once faulty, may keep on doing so even after fix. So if it were me & I could afford it, I would get a new one with a warranty.

Microwave turntable works intermittenly - also no light

if you have on the key pad turn table on/off it may be the pad itself / I would ck the connections on the prosser . as the get film (correded ) you can use a spray cleanner for this . and it may correct the problem . flickering light may be the element and it may fail . (soon ) ****

Microwave not heating

OK, you have two components that are faulty. the magnetron and the turntable motor as well. replacing these two components will fix both issues.

Have GE JVM2050 over the range microwave, which stopped heating food and water since this morning. All other functions including light, key pad, clock, turntable work normal. The magnetron sound also

if everything works except the heating, it is most likely the mag tube is on its way out.........that is the most common reason for it not too cook.......since the microwave is a GE and it is 3.5 years old, i would say you are better off buying a new microwave, the mag tube starts at around $70.00 and up + the labor it costs too have a service person put it in........around another $60.00

I have a gold star above range microwave, mvh1615ww, man. in Sept. 2006, the turntable is not turning, any quick fixes?

Try the TURNTABLE ON/OFF pad. Touch this pad to turn off the turntable or turn it back on. “OFF” will appear in the display when the turntable is turned off.

Do you mean MV1615?

If so, we have the service manual for this model and have uploaded it to our site here to help you. You will need the free Adobe Reader to view or print it.

You may need a new turntable motor or coupler.
