Ge spacemaker microwave JVM1330BW002 making noise, food not warm

Suspect inverter (power) and or the Magnatron---neither are cheap parts.

If you hear an unusual buzzing noise, the magnetron (the component that actually generates the microwaves) or other electronic module may be broken. This is not easily fixed; contact a service technician.

Thanks,

pls. rate..

If it stops heating and the other parts of the oven still work, the problem is with the magnetron circuit. If it makes a loud buzzing noise when you try to heat the food, then the magnetron has shorted out. The replacement cost for the magnetron is almost as much as a new oven, so it does not make sense to have it fixed. Sorry.

If the oven is making a loud buzzing noise when you try to warm food and the food remains cold, it usually means that the magnetron has failed. Not usually worth fixing since the parts alone can cause as much as a new oven.

the most likley problem is the magnetron has gone bad.but there are a couple of thermal sensor in the cabinet that need to be checked. one of those could be bad as well.

the magnetron needs replacement my friend, although you can still heat up food but eventually it will soon fail.
