When the microwave shuts off, there is still a hum coming form the unit. The microwave operates just fine
For model number 40185053210
Hello David, thank you for your inquiry. If your microwave is making an unusual or loud humming noise, you may have a problem with the magnetron. This component is part of the high voltage circuit and provides the microwaves that generate the heat. For your model 40185053210, the correct replacement part is PS4251316. I hope this information helps!

Microwave "died" while making popcorn. Circuit breaker did not pop. Is this reparable?
For model number 40185053210
Hello Don, Thank you for the question. If there is no power in the appliance (no lights or display) we suggest testing the Thermostats with a Multimeter to check the continuity. If you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!
The internal fuses blow when start button is pushed. What is wrong?
For model number 40185053210
Hello Charles, thank you for contacting us. Microwave parts like door switches or the magnetron, if defective or wrongly installed, will cause microwave fuses to continuously blow. A problem with the power socket and electrical wiring may also cause the issue. We would recommend checking the following parts: the door micro-switch, part number PS11741686, the magnetron, part number PS4251316, the HV capacitor, part number PS4130920, and the HV transformer, part number PS4223540.
When any of these parts is shorted, the microwave will blow internal fuses. Please follow safety precautions because all of them are high-voltage parts. Please reach out to customer service if you need help placing an order, anyone will be happy to assist you. We hope that helps.
Initially I called a Samsung recommended appliance repair outfit to fix the latch. The technician informed me that he does not fix latches. I need to buy a full new door for the microwave for $215 plus he charges $165 to come to my house. I got angry and did some research and it turned out that this is a very common problem. I ordered par
... Read moret PS4229162 "door key" $6.67 then followed the instructions on a youtube video by zimsjeep "Repair a Broken Microwave Door Latch" to install. At first I struggled a bit hooking up the spring to the frame, but then I used a slim plier to hold the spring (instead of my fingers) and that did the trick.
Removed control panel, discharged HV capacitor. Removed old diode, tested to confirm failure. Replaced part. Other than the removal of the panel swapping the part was almost as easy as replacing a light bulb.
The high voltage tired was shorted. I replaced it with a new one, but that did not solve the problem.
You can test the high voltage tired with a voltmeter and a 9 V battery. Search Search for it on YouTube.
You can also test the high voltage capacitor, the high-voltage transformer, and the magnetron with a multi met

I tested all these high-voltage components with a low-voltage multi meter, and they all checked out OK (after replacing the diode). However the microwave still did not heat food.
When working on a microwave it is important to unplug it and also discharge the high voltage capacitor. The capacitor has a 10 megaohm resister to automatically discharge itself, but it may have failed – – so discharge it manually.
