    ALWAYS discharge the high-voltage capacitor first if you even think your hands will come close to any HIGH VOLTAGE components.

    Jeff mentions this: Anything in the high voltage ( magnetron, capacitor, diode, wires to and from ):
    ...Use a metal ( not the shiny chrome type ) screw driver with a insulated handle to short across ( touch both at the same time ) the terminals of the high voltage capacitor to discharge it.

I just replaced the Magnetron and the Diode and now when I plug it up there is no power at all.

Circuit breaker checked and it is working fine.

Any idea why there is no reaction to the new things, was working fine until the last magnetron died.?

One of the 2 fuses, noise filter board, thermal cut off on the base, thermal cut off on top of the oven cavity, magnetron thermal cut off, power cord, house fuse/breaker.
