I have a frigidaire above the oven microwave oven. It functions properly ie the turntable turns, the indicator lights work but it does not heat the food products placed inside,,bottom line it will not heat.
Since the light comes on and the turntable rotates, I would suspect a bad magnetron, a loose connection at the magnetron, a failed high voltage transformer, or shorted high voltage rectifier diode.
If it's less than one year old, it should be fully covered under warranty.I'd suggest contacting the manufacturer to get it fixed free.
Ifit's within the magnetron portion of the warranty (usually 5-9 years)but out of the original full warranty (usually 1 year), then yourmanufacturer will cover the part cost, but not the cost to visit you orthe labor charge to do the work.
If you or a friend want to work on it, please see these links first:http://www.microwavedisplay.com/safety.txt& http://www.microwavedisplay.com/disassembly.txt
Here are some links you or someone you know can use (in order given) for test help, but read the safety warnings first:

Thereshould also be a "mini-manual" hidden inside the unit behind thecontrol panel or hidden on the left side behind the grille, which isvery helpful when troubleshooting & testing.
