I have a Panasonic Microwave that blew a fuse. I replaced the fuse but it blew immediately when power is turned on. I suspect that the magnetron is damaged. How can I be sure that the magnetron is indeed damaged. If it is damaged, can I just buy a replacement and install it, or are there adjustments that must be made in addition? I would prefer to fix the micro- wave myself if it's possible. Dzung Hoang hoang@rex.cs.tulane.edu tulane!rex!hoang

If it is ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Remove the magnetron and hit it with a very large hammer especially around the connections. :-) -- Dave Turner 415/542-1299 {att,bellcore,sun,ames,decwrl}!pacbell!dmt

Check the High Voltage. If you have HV it's the maggie, otherwise it's
the "other stuff". Generally it's the other stuff rather than the maggie.
