A microwave looks simple, but inside it holds a high-voltage capacitor that can store a dangerous charge long after it is unplugged. Microwave repair is not a job for a screwdriver and a video.

NRPS repairs over-the-range, built-in, drawer and speed oven microwaves, where replacement also means removal and installation work. For an inexpensive countertop model, we will tell you plainly if a repair makes sense.

Microwave problems we fix

•     Runs but does not heat: a failed magnetron, high-voltage diode, capacitor or high-voltage fuse.

•     Sparking or arcing inside: a burned waveguide cover, damaged interior paint or metal in the cavity.

•     Completely dead: a blown fuse or failed door interlock switches.

•     Turntable not turning: a worn coupler or turntable motor.

•     Door not closing or latching: worn latches and hooks, which also stop it from starting.

•     Keypad not responding: a failed membrane keypad or control board.

•     Exhaust fan or light not working: fan motors, switches and bulbs on over-the-range models.

•     Microwave drawer will not open or close: drive motors, rails and drawer sensors.

Models we service: Over-the-range microwaves, built-in and trim kit microwaves, microwave drawers, speed ovens and combination wall oven units.

Safe checks you can do

•     Reset the breaker for the microwave circuit.

•     Check the door closes firmly and fully. A worn latch can stop the microwave from starting.

•     If it sparks, stop using it and look for foil, metal trim or twist ties inside.

Do not open the cabinet: the high-voltage capacitor inside a microwave can hold a lethal charge even when the unit is unplugged.
