GE 1800 XL not heating, no power, except fan works and clock also

Sounds like your losing power, have you tried it on a completely Different circuit??? Either that or bad fuse or connections inside of microwave.

probably fryed the magnetron, with something like foil or metallic, try unplugging it for 12 hours maybe it will reset if not throw it out

Check the circuit board.

If it was run without the fan a thermal protect device was more than likely taken out. Check for that and replace the fan.

It sounds like the main transformer has failed. It would be cheaper to replace the whole microwave than repair this one. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Hope this helps. Good luck.

You likely need to replace the fan motor.

in the microwave there is a part which produses the heat which will be called as magnetron you check that part.

This is not something that you can fix yourself. Most likely, the magnetron needs replaced, and this must be done by a service department. So, if the microwave is relatively new and expensive, take it in for service. If it's an old one or relatively cheap model, you would be better off replacing it because the cost of the repair would likely be more than the unit is worth. Hope that this helps.
