Microwave Repair

Warning: Your microwave oven is capable of giving you a serious electrical shock, even when it is unplugged. We strongly suggest you seek the assistance of an appliance repair technician when conducting any microwave oven repair.

OK, now that the warning is out of the way, let’s get down to business. Yes, it is true that attempting to work on a microwave oven can be extremely dangerous if you don’t have the training or tools to do it properly. So, let’s take a look at the most common problems and determine which ones you can repair yourself.

  • My microwave isn’t working.
  • I see sparks inside my microwave.
  • My microwave turntable isn’t turning.
  • My microwave isn’t heating and I can hear a loud buzzing.
  • I slammed the door, and now my microwave won’t work.
  • Microwave burning smell.

Most of the problems listed above need a professional technician to repair. However, the scariest of these problems, seeing sparks inside your microwave oven, is probably the easiest to repair yourself.

Check the inside of your microwave for food that has splattered or dripped into the microwave. It will continue to cook and can cause sparking. This also applies to grease accumulating on the ceiling. Give your microwave a thorough cleaning. If the problem persists, call us immediately and we will get to the root of the problem.
