Could be the magnetron, I suppose..

Why is my microwave not heating up?
This high voltage powers the magnetron to heat the food. If the diode burns out, the magnetron won't receive enough voltage to operate, preventing the microwave from heating. When the diode fails, it is often visibly burned out. Inspect the diode and if the diode is burned out, replace it.

Test the Magnetron:

SOURCE: microwave is loud

It is normal to have a moderate sound, but if extremely loud it indicates trouble with the magnetron, should be returned for a replacement.

SOURCE: Cuisinart microwave CMW-100. How do I change the lightbulb?

You need to remove the cover from the oven. Pull the plug first! Remove the Philips Screws. There are two special screws that are meant to prevent your proceeding further. No standard driver will fit these screws. You can remove them with small pliers gripping the outer edge of the screw and turning counter clockwise. If you are not familiar with capacitors, get somebody who is familiar. The light socket snaps in. Unsnap it. The lamp is taped to the socket with cellophane tape. I have never removed the lamp nor do I know the number. Do not plug in the oven with out the cover!!!!!

I have a Cuisinart cmw-100 microwave everything works except for the turntable. any suggestions?

Order a new turntable motor. Turn the microwave upside down and you can see the little door in the center where you can install it. Pretty easy, really.

Cuisinart CMW-100 , wont heat or turn the table? all else o.k.

We changed the 20amp fuse and that was not the problem so we returned it to Macy's. If anyone knows of a reliable brand of microwave today please let us know. All the reviews on microwave ovens recently are bad.
