A microwave that runs, lights and turns but does not heat has a high-voltage fault – typically the magnetron, diode or capacitor. This is the point at which owner troubleshooting should stop.
The capacitor in a microwave can hold a lethal charge after the appliance is unplugged, and discharging it is part of a technician procedure. Owners can safely check the turntable coupling, clean the grease filters and confirm the door closes fully.
