Food's not getting hot. Light Works, turntable works. Taken case off and checked the 2 internal fuses. Main 1¼" fuse is ok. 20mm, 8 Amp fuse had gone. Changed it twice, blew straight away, both times. It it the Magnetron, or is there anything else I can try?
Thanks |

I presume it only blows during microwave operation?
I also presume the first fuse is the ceramic 15 - 20 amp located live side of AC line cord circuit?
Where is 20mm fuse located physically, and if you know electrically?
Unplug either primary winding lead of Power (HV) transformer. If still blows fuse - Is NOT due to any HV component including magnetron. _________________ You're over there, I'm over here. |

It's on the same board as the one you mention, and blows as soon as you press the start button to use the microwave function. I'll try what you suggest. |

sorry, you didnt, but both fuses are on a small circuit board where the incoming mains connects to. |
