Is Your Microwave Trying to Tell You Something?
Microwave problems are often electrical, so they're worth having checked rather than ignored. Here's what we see most.
Running but not heating
Usually a failed magnetron or a faulty high-voltage diode.
Sparking inside
Stop using it immediately — this can be a damaged waveguide cover or metal debris inside.
Turntable not spinning
Often a simple motor or roller guide issue, usually an easy fix.
Buttons or display not responding
Could be a control panel or membrane switch issue.
Loud buzzing while running
Often the magnetron or transformer working harder than it should.
Door not sealing properly
A damaged latch or hinge can prevent the microwave from starting at all as a safety measure.
