Safety first
Never Open a Microwave Yourself
A microwave has a high-voltage capacitor that can hold a dangerous charge even when it is unplugged. That is why we advise against DIY repair. Our technicians discharge it safely before any work.
While you wait, do not run a microwave that sparks. Book a visit.

Can you repair a microwave that runs but has no heat?

Should I keep using a sparking microwave until you arrive?
No. Stop using it and unplug it. We will check the interior and the waveguide cover when we visit.
