Inverter Top Check wiring to MW inverter:
1. Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.
2. Visually inspect 4 connectors on the MW
inverter boards, CN701, CN702, CN703,
and E701 to see whether there are signs of
overheang or any signs of failure due to
loose wires, bad crimping, etc.
3. Reassemble all parts and panels before
operang.
4. Plug in microwave oven or reconnect power.
H
Magnetron Top 1. Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.
2. Remove wire leads. Check that the seal is in
good condion.
3. Measure resistance.
4. Replace wire leads.
5. Reassemble all parts and panels before
operang.
6. Plug in microwave oven or reconnect power.
