Ancient and honorable Amana RadarRange.
Built like a tank.
Was heating some coffee and it emitted several flashes, made a "zut" sound, and then the smell of burning plastic.
Pulled off the internal plastic cover to reveal a wheel that seems to serve some sort of stirring function on the microwaves.
Found one paddle fused:
Can anybody speculate on what's going on?
My kneejerk is that the tube that emits the microwaves is on the way out... but I don't know enough to explain why that one paddle got fused.
