Part # of Magnetron for Microwave Oven Emerson MW9107WC

Greetings,

Can someone tell me the part # of the magnetron for microwave oven Emerson MW9107WC?

I know I could probably just take it apart and see for myself, but would like to determine cost effectiveness of getting a replacement part and repairing myself, bringing to service technician, or just getting a new one.

Thanks for reading,

Yimin

How do you know the Magnetron is faulty, and not another component?

According to Emerson's web site, and owner's manual, the warranty on the magnetron is 7 years (parts only):

How do you know the magnetron is bad, if you haven't even opened the unit yet?

How do you know that you're dead?

You just touched the 4kV terminal.

just curious, have there been any microwave oven deaths recently?

I used to hear about them every year or so from trade newsletters, but considering a microwave oven is throw away item these days, I'm guess less people bother to even have them fixed in the first place.

Maybe the message is getting through to people just how lethal the HT in a microwave is, or as you say less people bother repairing them.

My microwave was found put outside someones door in the flats, when I tested it I found the mains plug wired wrong (live case) it worked fine once the plug had been re-wired and has been since quite a long time ago.

I've noticed they use torx-ish screws on them these days, probably to discourage people from opening them, but there's nothing other than the standard warnings on them for any electronics you plug in. considering they cost $99 these days, I don't see anybody other than people who used to actually fix stuff trying to salvage one.

My made in 1981 Samsung still works, and somehow doesn't leak either.

Mine has started to rust at the bottom of the oven compartment so I wave the leakage meter at it from time to time, meanwhile I rescue any that turn up in the bin room so there's a fighting chance to cobble something together when the one I'm using eventually goes phut.

One was in as new condition but missing its dish, that probably works fine and I have a secret stash of dishes and drive mushrooms.

Has anybody worked on those "inverter" microwaves that lack the giant transformer?

I've been looking for one in the trash to peek inside, but haven't come across any yet.

Nor me - the suspense is killing me!

I replaced the supply in my Panasonic. Looks like a TV flyback! Price for the board was around 50 bucks.

9107WC?

Experience - loud buzzing sound, no power output - likely magnet is cracked. /YR

Mostly likely cause. In most ovens I've fixed, the magnetron is very hard to get to. Not a hard job, just a pain. /YR

Thank you. Tried that, including some of those on the list. I cringe when I hear the click, long silence, then a voice from the sub- continent on the other side. /YR
