A new and better video update for the previous one where i explain how to fix your microwave that works but doesn't heat. easiest fix you can find. follow th. The most common problem is a faulty magnetron. when in operation, the magnetron utilizes high voltage electrical power to generate the microwave frequencies that heat up your food (even with microwave toaster combos). when it has gone bad, your microwave will appear to work but may make a buzzing sound while rotating the food.
Simply hold the diode to one of the probes while touching one of the battery’s terminals. the other probe should be touching the other battery terminal. continuity should be visible in only one direction. if it shows continuity in the other direction, you know the diode has failed and needs to be replaced. If your microwave has a button to release the door, press it down while checking the door switches. if the terminals of the microwave read zero, they have continuity. if not, the switches will. Confirm that the microwave is receiving power by plugging it into a different outlet or using a voltage tester. plug the microwave back into the power outlet and test it by heating a small cup of water for a few seconds. To replace the capacitor, make sure your microwave is unplugged and remove the side panel. discharge the capacitor by touching the terminals with a pair of pliers. do not touch the metal portion of the pliers. detach the wires from the capacitor and remove unscrew the mounting bracket.
