My spacemaker 2.0 pvm2070dmww microwave is not heating and the turntable is not turning everything else is working fine.

The problem is more than likely a bad door switch, a digital meter is the best option for testing to find the defective one. If you have one post back for instructions or have serviceman repair it.

Will not heat

There are three common causes, magnetron, cracked high voltage diode, and a high voltage capacitor,"sometimes shorts"

The microwave isn't heating/cooking on any setting but the turntable, light is working. What should I check before calling a repairman?

There is nothing more you can do, you have verified everything is working except it is not heating the food. The next step is have the repairman come in to isolate the cause.

Everything works. Time, fan, turntable, light. It

Magnetron and accompanying high voltage diode are usually to blame. Everything else works but the magnetron isn't resonating (providing the proper energy to excite your water molecules).
An appliance repairman can change it for you (typically $180) or you can get a new microwave.

Microwave model MV-1510M is not heating, also sounds louder. Everything else is working, fan, lights, turntable etc..

If everything is working normally, except for heating, the likely cause is the magnetron.  Microwaves can be dangerous to work on, as the site below points out.  If you have an ohmmeter, it is possible to check the magnetron, but be certain to follow the precautions outlined at the webpage:

My Maytag microwave stopped heating. Everything

Generally the magnetron (the part that heats the food) is the cause if everything else still works. Unfortunately replacing the magnetron is barely cheaper than buying a new microwave though you can check out repairclinic.com to decide whether you want to attempt replacing the part.

Let me know how this works out for you.

MICROWAVE NOT HEATING

Most likely you have a magnetron problem. Easy to replace (DYI) but make sure the high voltage capacitor is fully discharged first against the case.

Sharp 1870 just quit cooking and no turntable

The fact that the microwave and convection both do not heat indicated that the oven is in demo mode, check the user manual, otherwise it will possibly be a relay not triggering, may need a pcb replacement, check Demo mode 1st....Phil

GE microwave oven

Does the turntable rotate? If everything but this works (except no heat), you probably have a bad door switch. Here's a discussion of what's involved in replacing it: http://www.fixya.com/support/t267796-kenmore_microwave_hood_combination_over

If the turntable does rotate, I'd suspect a more significant failure, such as the transformer, capacitor, or magnetron. If it's any of these, it's time to replace the unit.

Noisy when running - not the usual humming noise

check turntable motor or bush, this very easy problem, you can use oven no problem..
