The sound was sort of like an electric moter that is froozen but the motor is trying to turn on. After reading all the posts I tested the doide and it was good. I ended up replacing the magnetron and that took care of the problem. Is there a link on this forum that tell how to test a magnetron. I wont to thank everybody for all the posts on this forum, it has been very helpful.
