Not dangerous, but your food will not be efficiently or evenly heated. To change the motor do the following:-

There is a panel under the microwave, held on by one or more screws. Remove it and you will see the synchronous motor inside. There should be a plug to disconnect the wires. Remove the motor and fit a new one. Ensure that the microwave is disconnected from the wall outlet before attempting any work on it.

I have a High Pointe model EM925Bss-s and although the turntable does not work the oven still works. Is this dangerous?
no as long as you never put any metal or foil inside but food won't heat evenly , the turntable can usually be fixed by cleaning out center bearing with Q tip and a shot of oven cleaner this sometimes gets lots of food and grease build up from heavy use machines (usually mass food prep areas) and slows and stops the drive of turntable

What do i do?m625 eg miele oven smoke from top and turntable ceased working
Impossible to say what the problem is but if the turntable has stopped you could check the turntable motor. This is easily accessed from the bottom of the unit but you have to actually break the sheet metal tabs that retain it in place and replace using the screws only.

Microwave turns off after 3 seconds
Your description indicates one or too bad door switches, since there are a few of them a digital meter is required to test them along with the dis-assembly of the microwave oven, due to the high voltage danger I recommend a technician for the job.

My microwave oven has are rust spots;can I paint over them?
Yes, you can paint over the spots and no, it's not dangerous. I'd let the paint thoroughly dry before using the oven -- it could otherwise cause paint to buckle/ripple/etc.

The microwave facility in this multi function Sanyo shower wave oven EM-D993 has ceased to work. Everything else does.
When you hit Start to cook, do the inside light and turntable come on?

Any unusual noises? Is it louder or quieter than usual?

These answers will help me judge whether it's in the high voltage section (magnetron, transformer, or diode) or the control section (door switch or control board relay or connection).

TURNTABLE DOESN'T TURN.
Does the rest of the oven's functions work? Does the front panel controls work? Does it heat up the food? If yes, this indicates that you might have a problem with the motor that turns the turntable.

If you try to turn the turntable manually (gently), does it turn freely or is there resistance? If it turns freely, the mechanical mechanism between the turntable and motor may be broken and the motor may be ok.

The oven's microprocessor also controlls the motor. There could be a problem there.

You'll need to have it looked at by a service center. Although its not that difficult to determine which of the reasons I mentioned above is the cause, it can be however, dangerous to operate a microwave oven with the cover off and with high voltage circuits exposed.

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance to you.

Good luck!
