The microwave appears to function properly except it won't heat anything in the cooking chamber.I have replaced the magnetron,checked the switches.thermal fuses and inspected the electronics for heat or solder issues,all wires are connected.The magnetron gets hot and the wall inside by magnetron gets warm but nothing placed inside will heat up.Anybody experience this problem? If so what needs to be replaced?

Did it show any error code?

Do you have the tech sheet?

gene thanks for replying, no the microwave runs like nothing is wrong with no errors.I could not find the tech sheet inside.Although after more inspection I found a burned up ferrite in the wave tube.I had to order it from the factory. My hope is that the loose burned up ferrite was sinking the energy from the magnetron into the interior wall and top of cooking chamber.Have you seen this one? (ferrite part # w10252581)

johnnyjfo,

This is the Microwave repair forum. So you posted your question in the wrong place. Go to the Dryer repair forum and open a new thread with your questions there. Do not forget to post the Complete model number of the dryer.
