My micro will not heat, I have lights but no heat
There is a internal diode fuse. Your have to take the cover off. I have done this before. I think I bought the fuse a radio shack...not sure.But a appliance store will have one. Just don't miss with anything else inside.
The high voltage diode converts the A/C power output of the transformer to D/C, doubling the ... If the microwave doesn't heat the thermal fuse may have blown.
Every thing works but no heat
follow this steps and fix it. God bless you
- Check the power diodeThis
electronic component is responsible for transmitting current in one
direction. If the diode becomes defective it will cause your microwave
to not heat. Test the diode and replace it if necessary.
- High voltage capacitorResponsible
for storing electricity, this part is a key component in any microwave.
Remove, discharge, and test the capacitor to determine if it requires
replacement.
- Damaged magnetronResponsible
for generating waves and producing heat. When your microwave is no
longer heating properly, replacement will be required.
- Thermal CutoffsExamine
the thermal cutoffs on both the magnetron and the oven itself. Take off
one of the leads and using a volt-ohm meter on RX1, check the terminals.
If you get a result other than zero, replace the thermal cutoffs.
Microwave squeals
It may be a drying bearing on a fan such as the internal cooling fan or hood vent exhaust fan.Or it may be that a blade assembly is slipping on a fan motor shaft. That can be fixed with a little super glue.
