Never open a microwave yourself

Microwaves contain a high-voltage capacitor that can hold a lethal charge even when unplugged. If the outer casing has to come off, leave it to a technician.

Microwave repair FAQs

Why does my microwave run but not heat food?

The high-voltage circuit is the usual cause: a failed magnetron, high-voltage diode, capacitor or transformer. A faulty door switch can also stop heating. These parts carry dangerous voltages even when unplugged, so they must be handled by a technician.

Why is my microwave sparking inside?

Often a damaged or greasy waveguide cover (the small panel on the inside wall), metal in the cavity, or chipped paint inside the cavity. Stop using it and have it checked, because continued arcing can damage the magnetron.

Is it worth repairing a microwave?

For built-in, convection and premium microwaves, repairs are usually worthwhile. For a low-cost countertop solo microwave, a magnetron or board replacement can approach the price of a new one, and we’ll tell you that honestly before any work.

Do you repair built-in microwaves?

Yes. Built-in microwaves and microwave-combi ovens from Bosch, Siemens, Miele, Samsung and others are removed from the housing, repaired and refitted.

My microwave turntable doesn’t turn. Can that be fixed?

Yes. Check first that the roller ring and glass plate are seated correctly. If they are, the turntable motor or coupler has usually failed, which is a straightforward repair.

Can I open my microwave to fix it myself?

Please don’t. The high-voltage capacitor can hold a dangerous charge long after the microwave is unplugged. Leave internal repairs to a trained technician.
