magnetron

I changed my magnetron on my JVM2070 and it has worked fine for almost 5 yrs but yesterday when I went to heat a cup of water on 2 min setting and it made a snap noise and water was cold (after 2 min). I tried again and water was hotter but it took at least 2.5 min to do what it did in 2 min...

So my wife came home to a buzzing noise on the microwave. She proceeded to try and use it and it did not heat and then went completely dead. I diagnosed a bad thermostat to the control board and have that fixed and the unit has power again. The other thermostat's seem appear to be fine...

Hi: Kind of a science question here. You might not know the answer, but your knowledge of how microwaves work could put me on the right path. My Sharp microwave is basically brand new. (Unfortunately it's also out of warranty because it sat for a year waiting it's turn to be installed...

I have a Maytag convection/microwave combo (MMV6178AAW). I found a "shorted" diode (25 ohms both directions). I replaced the diode with a new one and it shorted again. I used a capacitive HV probe to measure the HV transformer output. I get 6.5kV pk-pk while disconnected from the rest of the...
