Microwave overheating - what todo? - Microwave Ovens

If your LG Solardome microwave oven is overheating a melamine plate within 30 seconds, there could be a few potential issues at play:

1. Power Settings: Check to see if the power settings on your microwave are too high. If it's set to a high power level, it can cause certain materials, like melamine, to overheat quickly. Try reducing the power level and see if that helps.
2. Plate Material: Melamine plates are not suitable for use in microwave ovens as they can overheat and potentially release harmful chemicals into your food. It's recommended to use microwave-safe dishes made of glass, ceramic, or microwave-safe plastic.
3. Microwave Performance: If the microwave is consistently overheating items within such a short time frame, it might indicate a malfunction. In this case, it's best to contact LG customer support or a certified technician to inspect and repair the microwave.
4. Placement and Usage: Ensure that the plate is placed centrally on the turntable and not touching the sides of the microwave. Also, avoid using the microwave for extended periods without interruption, as this can cause overheating.
5. Testing with Different Materials: Try using a microwave-safe ceramic or glass plate to see if the issue persists. If other materials heat up quickly as well, it could indicate a problem with the microwave itself.

this is generally caused by the magnetron overheating,you need to check the cooling motor for function and that the airways on the machine are not blocked as this is a commonly looked over reason for overheating magentron triggers.the other fault is a failed part

The magnetron is overheating causing the thermal switch to switch off the system . The cause of the magnetron overheating could be of a dirty/faulty waveguide or magnetron.

replace unit.. it served it time and purpose

That is not good, the magnetron has gone, or the thermal fuse has failed, "protects the magnetron from overheating" There is a possibility the keypad control board was a affected.

Generic questions and comments:

Does your microwave have a "popcorn" setting and are you using it? Is there a rotating table in your machine? Is your popcorn bag elevated on top of a bowl or similar? Are you using some other "sensor" setting? Can you use straight time setting and get it to go past the 1 min 45 second mark?

On my microwave, it takes just about that much time and the popcorn is done ... BUT only if I elevate the bag to about the middle of the oven.

Let me know if this works for you.

It may have overheated. Wait 30 minutes and try again. I suggest contacting the manufacturer for repair or replacement. This unit is essentially new and should not do this.

Just cleaning is not enought.The terminal is loose and that isusually the problem most of the time.Replace them with new ones and I think you be happy.

There is a fuse that should be easy to get to behind the control panel.  Will need to take the grill off first to get control panel off.  Make sure unit is unplugged first.  There are high voltage parts in a microwave so you should have a professional do the work if you are not comfortable with it.  Would appreciate a solved rating for expert advice.
