Kenmore microwave not heating food.

I have a kenmore microwave 709 80333310 that i bought new and have used about two months. Easiest fix you can find. When the voltage drops below 215 volts the microwave does not heat the food well enough. When i push start it sounds like it working but the turntable doesn t move and it doesn t heat.

This high voltage powers the magnetron to heat the food. A microwave that does not heat up may have a broken magnetron. Quick troubleshoot and what you may need to fix video. The light fan rotating table are working.

If the voltage is normal then it s time to replace the magnetron with a new one. Once the voltage is normal the microwave oven will start to work fine. The diode converts the a c power output of the transformer to d c doubling the voltage to nearly 5 000 volts. If the diode burns out the magnetron won t receive enough voltage to operate preventing the microwave.

If it is broken it may blow a fuse in your microwave which could lead to other components failing. A new and better video update for the previous one where i explain how to fix your microwave that works but doesn t heat. This high voltage powers the magnetron to heat the food. If the diode burns out the magnetron won t receive enough voltage to operate preventing the microwave from heating.

What we have heard in the past is when the microwave starts door closed and timer started it then turns on with a noise clunk and then the food is heated but now that noise no longer happens and the food is still cold. Lights timer display all work. Always put safety first when dealing with electricity.
