    Default LG microwve will not heat

    Model Number: LMV1813
    Brand: LG
    Age: Less than 1 year

    My LG LMV1813 microwave is 10 months old and suddenly stopped heating food. It runs and sounds like it's working normally, but food remains cold.
    I only paid about $250 for the microwave, so I'm not even sure it's worth fixing. Thanks for your help.

    Call LG for a warranty service call. It should have a one year warranty.

    LMV1813SB , I didn't include the SB because it is the same model as the SS other than the stainless.

    Thanks, I thought it would be the magnetron.

    Actually, no info was missing, the model number is LMV1813, the ST,SW and SB are just style abbreviations (stainless steel, smooth white and smooth black).
    You can see here :LG LMV1813SB | Specification - Page 2
