This is the most comprehensive video I have seen yet on TH-cam I was able to replace my microwave after watching this video. THANK YOU!
Excellent video. I see many questions on repair or replace, I say it all depends on individual situation. In my case my microwave is 19 years old and the magnetron just went bad. I also need to replace the filters so if you add up here and there with a possibility of other things going bad due to age is best to replace but if you only had it for less than 5 years I guess you could fix it. Hope I make sense of this. Good luck to all.
Thanks for the helpful video. I just replaced the magnetron on my 15 year old GE Spacemaker XL1800. Works like a champ again.
I have the same microwave. Which magnetron did u get and where, would welcome a link for the part if u have it avail. Thanks in advance!!
Nicely done, very informative. Followed your guidelines, micro working again! Thank you
Solid video. I changed the magnetron today and tadaw!!!! Heat. Appreciate the detailed video!!!
Thank you for posting this video ... Made it simple to understand and ever safer to work with .... Thanks
Great, thanks!
Thanks for making this video! Although I have a Kenmore Elite, this gave me the information I needed to replace the magnetron. Microwave works like a charm now. Thanks again!
+Carlos L Aguilar Thank you.
where do you get the part, Is it cost effective to repair or replace
@@jegan6537 You can order from any website that sells Kenmore parts but you need to first find the part number from the drawings they provide. Since this post was 4 years ago, I don't recall where I bought the part. Sorry
1:36 This dude has been through some microwave battles.
Or he owns a cat :)
While not exactly the same microwave and parts. The guide was super helpful and let me remove my microwaves magnetron safetly. Thank you!
Great video….. it was super easy to replace the magnetron and diode in my GE microwave. I did it on my own and used a sturdy cardboard box underneath the microwave to take the weight when removing it and reinstalling the microwave.
Did your microwave have a weird burn smell when you try to use it and not heating
? Mine does, could that mean it is the magnetron, or diode, or both?
And how will I know?
Great video. I followed these steps and saved myself a bunch of money!
You're welcome!

Have a great day!
Thank you really great job
I remember when i was shocked by that red wire that comes out from capacitor into magnetron , it lasted for 6-8 seconds or so and i couldn’t take my hand away then it came out from my leg, still have a scar on it.That was literally nightmare. Still afraid of electricity. Please be careful out there folks. It’s not a good idea to risk your health/life for 200-300 bucks.I thought i will die in there.
What did you do wrong??
@@terrylane9570 I accidentally touched plies metal part , it was my fault 🤦🏻♂️ 😅
Unplug it next time, give it give minutes.😉
@@robkellerman4666 yeah i mean it’s been like 4 years since it happened and 2 years since i wrote a comment bro
@@solidredd6481 yah and what like 4 minutes to reply?🤣🤣🤣
Next time I'll make sure to assess the age of the comment before I then reply to it.🙄
Excellent thank you very much
THANKS FOR VIDEO ITS HELP I REPLACE BY MY SELF EASY
My similar 1 year old GE microwave would start but not heat. Will this fix it? This is a great video. Thanks.
Thank you so much
Are all magnetrons standard in power, voltages, watts and ohms, etc., and can be used as replacements in any microwave oven?
I'm trying to repair my microwave oven which is just about 2 years old, and the magnetron has stopped working. It's one of those that has a static (hot) plate - not the rotating kind. Can I use a magnetron from a rotating plate microwave oven to repair mine?
Are there any parts in the magnetron that can be placed or repaired? or is it a complete part in itself? I'd like to fix my old microwave but not for $100.

I have this exact microwave and it made a loud pop the other day and won't heat uo anymore. All of the buttons are still working, and it makes a humming sound, but just doesn't warm the food. Is that a magnetron issue? Thank you
Thank you so much very helpful
You're welcome!
We are always happy to help. If you would like to give us a review on Google, we would much appreciate it: g.page/r/CcVUrahZNozMEBM/review
We hope that you have a great day!
Everyone, please be careful with the capacitor. I am a HVAC Tech. They do not feel good.
What parts, transistors, etc operate the convection and heating?
my micro I replaced 15 amp fuse plate turns , light turns on but no led lights!, advise please!!!!
Does this technique apply to emerson microwave oven from 2011?
I have GE Model ZDP 48N6DD1SS, Serial # DD2035407
I cannot find this part in the GE System: Wire Relay Part # WB21X5362 Hot
Any advice for sourcing?
Well I replaced my magnetron and my microwave is still not heating! Is there another fix? Could my new magnatron be faulty? 🤷🏻♂️
I’m not a microwave guy just a homeowner so any advise is welcome.
hello my question is.. it can be any niddle nose supplier to deactivate the compositor? if does, it is only a touch for how long? thank you
I had halmtion Beach micowave in 2015 did last long because magagton stop working after power outage from Toronto we had when we we're was moving out of my apartment i grew up we living in for 14 years guessing power surge
is magnetron only reason for not heating up, o are there any other issues like transformer, diode or capacitor.
I forgot to take a picture of the capacitor and don't know if the red wire goes on bottom with the diode or the top, does this matter???
That repair guy has a kitten at home 1:35. Great video! Thanks!
LOL. More than a kitten!
Super
I know in testing a magnetron there should be less than 1oHm between the contacts. But what I there's absolutely NO reading at all?
If the magnetron looks good and not burnt should it be replaced? If it it replaced as in this video and still does not work what could the problem still be?
Did you find any answers?
Where do you go to find the correct part for the GE model Microwave? I see Magnetrons for sale on Amazon but they do not show the Models they fit. Where do you find this out?
You can find all the parts for your appliance by entering in your model number on our website. All of our parts are OEM parts. We sell them here: RepairClinic.com
Must same magnétron or other refrence
I tried this repair today. Very easy to perform and this video makes it a lot easier. Thanks for making it! Unfortunately, it did not fix my problem. The turn table no longer worked after replacing the magnetron and it still didn't heat up. I'm guessing it is a motherboard issue. Time for a new microwave.
Wow that sucks
My microwave aint heating i changed all the door switches an the little black diode connecting to the capacitor an to a ground i dont know if its the magnetron r the transformer any ideas?
Ashley lanclos could be one of that , me not aware fully too.. get it done buy some repair place...
Does this work for introverts?
Thank you RepairClinic for all your great work. Random question: I have a Bosch HMV9302/01. Do you know if this video would apply?
For the most part yes. I have an HMV8051/01 and the magnetron layout was almost exactly the except for the capacitor being screwed onto the magnetron and had to be removed via an access door prior to removing the magnetron..
@@MORNINGSHADEMIAMI Thanks, much appreciated
my microwav oven some time work good and some time show work time in
disply but not work still cold my items can you like help me how i fix?
Google it.
Why did you remove bottom panel? Is it even necessary for this fix
why remove the bottom panel ?
It is required to pull out the main cover.....@6:57.
I replaced the magnetron and it still not heating up.. any other suggestions??
How about the Diode, I read that should be replaced too? FIxed mine was the Magnatron
Is the diode that little connector to the capacitor?
@@MOAON_AABE Wasnt an issue with mine
@@shckltnebay did your microwave have a burning/weird smell like mine?
@@MOAON_AABE No just stopped heating
@@shckltnebay damn! Thanks anyway.
Americanz, u r so fucking greats!
How I'd love to be american too.
You made all the procedures seems so easy to do.
Amazing Video! Hugz from Brasil!
Had a smell when it stopped working and sounded alittle louder humming noise. Black soot behind the magnetron but i tested it and its ok but still no heat also tested everything from fuses to diode but cant find the issue, wasted my day and the parts are more than buying a new unit from HD
I think I will just invest in a new one. I like the video though.
I did the same.. bought solo Samsung microwave.
Wouldn’t you want to check the thermal protector too? Probably should check that before replacing the magnetron.

This is a great video, very through, Is cost effective to repair or replace
My GE Profile Microwave worked for about 5-7 seconds then shut off. Further exam revealed burning/sparking in HV Inverter/Transformer. Digital continuity checked OK for all door switches, primary thermostat, shut off fuse, etc. Replaced Transformer with new part. Everything worked fine except 'No Microwave Heating'. Next, replaced Magnetron and Relay Switch on the circuit board. Everything worked fine except 'No Microwave Heating'. Magnetron humming seems normal! Cleaned mica wave board inside of unit, no sparking here. Can anyone advise what the problem may be. Again, everything worked fine including settings for time, power levels, clock, etc. when started up except 'No Microwave Heating'. Last resort before dropping out to the curb for the landfill! Any ideas greatly appreciated! HELP!

You are very unfriendly to the environment as landfill is NOT for old appliances.
Have them took away and recycled!
seriously- you should have tried troubleshooting first - could just have been your wiring harness or a bad diode ... 50 cent part!
Great post, other than the risk of killing myself by becoming the ground on capacitor.
I've been shocked by the capacitor from a faulty microwave once. Painful but not deadly. The pain in my arm subsided after a few hours.
Can I ask why you didn't test the unit before reinstalling it on the wall?
Very confident in our work! No really not a bad idea at all, thanks Robert.

We sell parts and give resources for DIY'ers. You can find parts and more resources on our website: RepairClinic.com
You should retest the functions before completely reinstalling with temporary electrical.
EXLANT job
Anyone can take it apart and change parts, how about a video that teaches systematic parts check to fine what is not working.
Save time , never use a screwdriver and use cordless drivers
Yeah right, sure I'll do all that
Freaking $101. New microwave is $220.

@Barry Feldman I agree with you and one more thing, less garbage to an environment which is already fully polluted
need advise on your microwave go to tripod Milton on youtube leave a question
Why can't these so-called "experts" do a video explaining how to troubleshoot and give common scenarios as to why turntable stops, and convection and blower stops and what parts control them??? We're not electricians who can understand how it all connects and functions. I've replaced the door switches already and power fuse. Do the transistors at bottom of front panel have any relation????
that's not a repair - that's a replacement :(
Stupid idea to show the public how to work on a microwave. Not safe at all.
It is safe if you aren't stupid
my microwav oven some time work good and some time show work time in
