How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the microwave before handling internal parts.
Step-by-step:
- Remove and clean components: Take out the glass tray and roller ring. Clean both and the cavity floor to remove food spills.
- Inspect coupler: Check the plastic turntable coupler for cracks or deformation. Replace if damaged.
- Test motor operation: With the tray removed, place a cup of water inside and run the microwave briefly. Look through the window to see if the coupler turns. If not, the turntable motor is likely faulty.
- Motor replacement (technician): Access the motor from the bottom panel (unplugged). Replace with a compatible Clatronic turntable motor.
