When trying to run, intermittently, the light would come on but the tray wouldn't rotate or cook. When the door was open, the tray would intermittently rotate.
I pulled out the unit and found 2 interlock switches that are depressed when the door closes. After cycling the door open/closed I found that one of the switches occasionally would stay depressed. The repair was easy (after I took off the panels so I could get to the switch) I simply removed 2 screws that attached the interlock switch assemblies to the main unit. Then I popped out the defective switch and popped in the new one. This did indeed fix my problem.

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 Function Not Working but Speed Cook Okay
Used diagram on the web-site and a screw driver to replace the fuse and just one of the 2-Terminal Micro-Switches. When I looked at the three micro-switches one of them had a brown connector and you could see it had been burned. I just replaced that 2-Terminal Microswitch and the connector and the Fuse. Now the Microwave is working fine.

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.

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.

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.
