Remove the contaminated and fit a new Waveguide cover.

Here are the steps to remove the door cover from the door of your LG Microwave model LMHM2017ST:

1. Unplug the microwave from the power source.
2. Open the microwave door and locate the four screws on the inner edge of the door.
3. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the four screws.
4. Carefully separate the outer door panel from the inner door panel.
5. You will now see the door cover attached to the outer door panel.
6. Use a flathead screwdriver or plastic pry tool to gently pry the door cover off of the outer door panel. Start at one corner and work your way around the edge.
7. Once the door cover is removed, you can replace it with the brushed silver cover from the new door.
8. To reassemble the door, simply snap the new cover onto the outer door panel and then reattach the outer door panel to the inner door panel using the four screws you removed earlier.

Make sure to be careful when removing the door cover, as it can be fragile and may break if handled roughly.

Question edited for clarity. It depends where you live? In the UK, the fuse is in the wall plug. In the US and other countries it _may_ be at the rear where the mains lead goes in. Sometimes they pull out, sometimes there is a small screw cap. If you are thinking of getting inside it, this Tip I wrote applies. https://www.fixya.com/support/r29874712-repairing_microwave_ovens ..

Question edited for clarity. Question moved from Building Materials to LG Microwave. Take into an LG Service centre for repair. They are sealed by security screws and are dangerous inside. You won't be able to get parts.. If it is a counter top microwave and cost $60, just buy a new one as they are a disposable item.

if smells like something then something is burning stop using answer about can it be fixed is unknown till diagnosed

latch/catch failure

THE HIGH VOLTAGE FUSE IS IN A PLASTIC EXTRUSION NEXT TO THE CAPACITOR AND DIODE. YOU CAN USE 3 OR 4 STRANDS OF THIN WIRE FROM MULTI STRAND 15A MAINS CABLE. SOLDER IT OVER THE BLOWN FUSE. I HAVE DONE THIS 100'S OF TIMES.

Possible fuse for the magnetron power, capacitors or magnetron or all.

Go for a warranty repair anyway. It may be the magnetron, and the clicking is the big condenser discharging. https://www.lg.com/ca_en/support/warranty Microwave Ovens (Over-the-Range):

• 1 year parts & labour
• 5 years on the magnetron (part only)

Microwave Ovens (countertop):

• 1 year replacement warranty
• 5 years on the magnetron (part only)

A Combination microwave has two separate sides to it, a grill with elements and a microwave with a magnetron and associated step-up transformer, capacitors and circuitry. Check at the rear for a fuse, but you probably need an LG Service Centre. Click Support. https://www.lg.com/za/microwaves/lg-MP-9485S-microwave-oven ..

The fuse is located inside.

Take it back, it is defective

Ideas about this are:

• Get a new board for it
• troubleshoot it down to the component level.

It depends on your time investment and cost analyses. What do you want to do? That is all I can say since you did not post the model number of the unit.

It's most likely your door switch. I have the same problem and was told that. I'm not 100% certain, but will take a look at mine and let you know.

Is the timer timing down?

Check the fuse for the magnetron

What is it that you are losing ? You can set the power level by using the marked touchpads on the touchpanel, much like setting the volume on a TV. If you do not change the power setting and it is taking a long time to heat things or intermittently fails to, that is usually a sign that the Magnetron has reached its use by date and needs to be replaced. Not always an economical proposition unfortunately as spare parts are often exorbitantly priced. Before removing the cover of the oven in attempt to carry out any maintenance such as replacing the Oven cavity lamp, make sure the oven is disconnected from the power point ! The voltages in a microwave oven ARE LETHAL !

Check microswitches in the latch assembly.
