There are other videos with possible causes and solutions on YouTube.

A relay sometimes gets bad connections inside and needs replacing. The door switches turn everything on and off, likeely one of the switches is bad

It all depends on your model number of course, but if JUST the turntable is failing, it may just be a defective turntable motor or coupler.

If your internal cooling fan and/or inside / cavity light is defective, too, it may be the internal fan motor, a door switch, or a relay on the control board.

We repair those and can offer more free advice with the full model number and a little bit more detail about what's working, what's not, and when.

You can find handy exploded views and order parts by model number here.

The signs are not always evident, but from the description the magnetron has failed.

There should be a "mini-manual" (tech sheet) hidden inside the unit behind the control panel or hidden on the left side behind the grille, which is very helpful when troubleshooting, testing, and locating components.



Also at our Web site, we have a video available showing how to remove a typical over the range control panel assembly in under 5 minutes.

You can find helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your full model number here.

I would also suspect the thermostat associated with your magnetron.

Feel free to contact me directly (and please remind me of your full model number) for more information & help or see our Web site.

We're happy to help you with free advice and we'd appreciate your thoughtful rating of our answer.
