The turntable stopped working in the microwave and even the turntable button on the front panel does not maker it work either. How can this be fixed. It was working fine ever since my purchase of the oven. Turntable no longer turns????
If the rest of the oven works fine, then this indicates that you might have a problem with the motor that turns the turntable.
If you try to turn the turntable manually (gently), does it turn freely or is there resistance? If it turns freely, the mechanical mechanism between the turntable and motor may be broken and the motor may be ok.
The oven's microprocessor also controlls the motor. There could be a problem there.
You'll need to have it looked at by a service center. Although its not that difficult to determine which of the reasons I mentioned above is the cause, it can be however, dangerous to operate a microwave oven with the cover off and with high voltage circuits exposed.
Please let me know if I can be of further assistance to you.
Good luck!

Remember, while
you can do some repairs on your microwave, what you don't know can kill you...
even on an unplugged microwave, so make sure you understand the dangers and how
to reduce them before you try anything inside a microwave. If you want to
do more yourself, let me know and I will point you in the direction of some
good resources.
