Question posted by meyebev on April 25th, 2016

I Know I Overheated Something And Lost The Power (to The Microwave Only). The

microwave is less than 3 yrs old so I doubt it is the wiring. Is there a way to test if it is a faulty fuse in the microwave? What part would that be? I do see a Thermal Cutout, hood and a Thermal Cutout oven cavity as well. There is also a fuse magnetron. What do you recommend testing first that is the most likely culprit?

I Know the Answer!

Good Afternoon meyebev, thank you for your post!

I understand that your Frigidaire microwave lost power and is no longer working. It could be a possible issue with the control panel or a wiring harness. Normally, the magnetron will cause the microwave to stop heating. Since it could be an electrical component I would suggest having a professional technician out to perform a proper diagnosis. This will help prevent you from purchasing any unnecessary parts. -OOS
