How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: High-voltage components are dangerous; only qualified persons should service them.
- Confirm symptom: Test grill-only mode (heats) and microwave-only mode (no heat). This isolates the fault to the microwave HV circuit.
- Do not bypass safety: Never attempt to bypass door switches or interlocks to test.
- Professional diagnosis: A technician will test the magnetron, transformer, diode, capacitor, and microwave relay, replacing failed parts with Gorenje-approved components.
