It is usually the magnetron tube that fails which then blows an inner-cabinet fuse. The world seems full of bad Asian made magnetrons that fail prematurely due to air infiltrated internal vacuums from leaking metal to glass seals. It will probably cost more in parts and labor to repair than a new unit. A well made magnetron should gradually lose output power over time (years), not just quit. Hope this helps!

Oster microwave OM1101NOE wont heat carosel turns light is on time runs but not heat
There are three things to consider, the magnetron "heats food" high voltage diode "sometimes cracks" and the high voltage capacitor "sometimes shorts" one or more can cause the symptom of no heat. I recommend a professional to assess.

No heat
If the fan, lites, all work and appears to be running normal but just no heat, chances are its the magnetron that has failed. Sometimes magnetron will make a deeper noise if it has failed

Microwave will run but will not heat?
**CAUTION**
HIGH VOLTAGE IS PRESENT IN CAPACITORS. THIS COULD SERIOUSLY INJURE YOU. DO NOT ATTEMPT IF YOU ARE INEXPERIENCED! IT IS CHEAPER TO BUY A NEW MICROWAVE THAN PAY FOR AN EMERGENCY ROOM VISIT.

The magnetron probably needs to be replaced. You can test it with these instructions.
