Over-the-range microwaves hang from a wall bracket and rest on cabinet screws, and after ten years the fixings deserve a check. A unit that has shifted puts strain on the door and the latch.
Owners can check that the mounting screws are tight and that the door closes without resistance. A failing magnetron – the usual end-of-life fault on this generation – is a technician diagnosis, and the capacitor makes this an appliance not to open at home.
