I have a Magic Chef model MC0160UQ. Within 2-3 minutes of heating food it shuts off completely for about 5min. Also, when I select the low fan it does not work, however the high fan works. Please assist with these issues if possible. Am I able to fix or adjust the magnetron myself since it may be overheating? or what should i do?????

The microwave is not heating the food.

When it did heat food before and you used the same settings now, the microwave must be defect.
But before you are sure, put a cup with water in the micro and try to heat that.
Dry food can't be heated in a microwave. There must be some moist in the food if you want to heat it in the microwave.

Microwave has stopped heating, yet grill and convection oven still work.

A model number would have helped, but I can give you a generic answer.
It may be a bad door switch or mount.
(Anybody in the home opening the door while it's cooking?)
See our help file on door switches here.

Have a magic chef mco160uw microwave. Had a recent

No! there is no reset, the power surge has more than likely damaged the keypad controller, and on the back is a circuit board that has the microprocessor with additional components that controls the vital areas of the microwave oven. If that is gone, it is cheaper to replace than to repair.

Turns on and off itself

If unit heats your problem is in the control board, most commonly would be one of your door switches

The problem will be a bad relay, a component that drives the relay, or a broken trace on the circuit board.

This blown trace happens a lot when the cooktop lights blow.
