Mco165uw stopped working - Magic Chef 1.6 cu. ft. Over-the-Range Microwave in White MCO165UW

The replacement fuse may have opened immediately because of a yet-undetected fault.

not unless you change the motor direction rotation

Unplug your microwave and turn it around and remove the screws holding cover on and then remove the cover. Look for where the power cord goes into the back of the unit and follow the black wire from the cord to where it ends. It should stop an either a circuit board or a fuse holder. Make sure that you replace the fuse with the same amperage fuse as what you take out. You will find the amp rating stamped on one of the silver collars on each end of the fuse. Good luck!

I did not know Magic Chef made the Ford Fairlane!! Please post on the automotive area. It has fuses under the dash and under the hood.

need a plate rotor remplace

where is the fuse for my heater as its not working on my renult modus

I didn't know they had noise filters! :)
Then you have blown a fuse. Check inside the oven chamber and look for missing powder paint or signs of arcing, if so dispose of the microwave. If the inside is good remove all the screws and remove the cover. Replace the fuse. If the magnetron was making louder noises prior then replace the magnetron. Since the fuse went the giant capacitor is likely bad. While the cabinet is open make sure to look for burned wires, check the continuity of thermal cutoffs, and check the main circuit-board for burned traces or components. The relays in most electronics are known for arcing (spot welding) and staying in the wrong position. Tap them hard with the back end of a screwdriver. During all of this use safe electrical practices by having the power cord unplugged. The capacitor could still have a high charge on it so be careful.
