Microwave would only heat food items to a warm condition
Removed microwave cover using screwdriver and anti tamper bit available at local hardware store. Megnetron had broken magnet making discovery of deffective part easy. Removed wire connector and three screws attaching magnetron to case, removed magnetron and installed new item in reverse order. Installed cover and made popcorn for operational check of microwave. Happy days..........

Microwave light went out
I have the built-in microwave in the cabinet. The hard part was getting it out of the cabinet. Once out, removing the cover and replacing the bulb and fuse was very easy. You need the tamper proof star bits to take out the screws holding the cover to the microwave. I got the bit set from Amazon for about $8. My fuse was OK. But I replaced it anyway, since it was 4-year-old. I am no expert in appliance repair, but found it fairly easy to do the repair. After unplugging the microwave, wait for 20 to 30 minutes before opening it, so that the capacitor inside completely discharges. It is supposed to discharge in 30 seconds, but why take a chance of electrocution..?

Powered Off completely
After reading reviews that there was no power what so ever and a fuse replacement will solve the problem, I tried it. Replacing the fuse is very easy (and I am not handy at all). All you have to do is remove the microwave cover from the top by removing two screws, slide the cover to the left and pulling the cover off. Then remove the grill in front of you, by removing one or two screws. The fuse is in front of you, use pliers and be firm but gentle. Replacing the fuse is easy but it did not solve my problem.

All power to the microwave went out.
PartSelect had helpful repair instructions on-line which made the repair easier and faster. Unfortunately, there were other problems with the oven that immediately blew the new fuse I had just installed. It was then determined that additional repair would most likely cost almost as much as a new microwave.

Broken Rotating Ring Guide
The groove inside the microwave that the rotating ring guide traveled was rusted due to moisture; the rusted groove caused the rotating ring guide to lag, putting pressure on the ring guide until it broke. I sanded the rusted area and repainted. The interior of microwave looks like new and the rotating ring guide now has a smooth surface to rotate. The ring guide was very simple to install without any tools.

Microwave would not heat
I went on line, put in microwave repair and watched a video on repair. I then took the oven down from over the range and took it apart. I could see were the magnetron had burned out. There was a hole with obvious burn marks. I went on line looking for the needed part. I clicked on PartSelect and order the magnetron. I received the part within three days, regular shipping. As I had not put the oven back together it took only a few moments to save 150 to 200+ dollars. I put it back together and happy, happy me, it worked.
