I have a 2004 June manufacture date Thermador microwave model MBB in black face. It was working perfectly than all of a sudden the tray does not go around and is does not heat. All of the other functions on the panel work. Clock etc. I am really handy at taking things apart and fixing them. This microwave is like new. I would rather fix it than replace it. What am I looking at? Gary

- Maybe you did not read the top. The circuit board is working. It takes all the commands. My question is if it is the magnetron would that also cause the turn table not to turn? Are the two connected switch wise? Maybe if the motor for the plate goes out it switches off the magnetron? Please only respond if you know what you are talking about. Going to a technician is not a solution for this guy!
When the microwave sounds okay, but there's no heat, one of the internal door switches, the high voltage circuitry, or the circuit board may have a problem. To resolve this problem, you need the assistance of a qualified appliance repair technician.
I strongly recommend the techie because teh high voltage circuitry in there will still get you even when the unit is unplugged.

- the carousel is usually driven by a small motor that's unrelated to the heating function of the microwave

I've been told they no longer manufacture replacement parts for my 6year old Thermador Combination Oven Model SMW272ZP. The microwave has crapped out and I would like to find a new matching microwave to fit the same opening. Any thoughts other than just checking dimensions on the internet and crossing my fingers that what I might find will really fit? Thermador offers no help!!!

The inside light of the MBBS microwave died on us. Microwave works fine but no light. I figure I should be able to change the bulb - like a refrigerator, right? Well there appears to be no obvious door inside. Outside also has no obvious door on left top and righ sides. Where is the bulb access on this thing?
