repairs we do on microwave ovens

These are just some of the repairs we carry out 

  1. Replacing the Magnetron: The magnetron is the component that generates the microwaves. If it fails, the microwave won’t heat food.

  2. Replacing the Diode: The diode converts AC power to DC and works with the capacitor to double the voltage. A failed diode will prevent the microwave from heating.

  3. Replacing the Capacitor: The capacitor works with the diode to store and release electricity. If it’s defective, the microwave may not heat.

  4. Replacing the Door Switch: The door switch ensures the microwave only operates when the door is closed. If faulty, the microwave might not turn on or off properly.

  5. Replacing the Turntable Motor: The turntable motor rotates the plate inside the microwave. If it’s broken, the turntable won’t spin, leading to uneven cooking.

  1. Fixing the Control Panel: The control panel can have issues like unresponsive buttons or display problems, often due to faulty wiring or a malfunctioning control board.

  2. Replacing the Light Bulb: The internal light bulb may burn out, making it difficult to see inside the microwave while it’s operating.

  3. Replacing the Thermal Fuse: The thermal fuse cuts off power to the microwave if it overheats. If it blows, the microwave will not start.

  4. Fixing the Fan Motor: The fan motor cools the magnetron and other components. A malfunctioning fan can cause overheating and shutdowns.

  5. Replacing the High Voltage Transformer: This transformer powers the magnetron. If it fails, the microwave won’t heat properly.
