My microwave runs but does not heat i tested fuses and thermo cut outs but i believe this part on diagram does not test out in machine being off. When i was reading description it said that this closes with to much heat so this part should not have continuity when machine is off, i was in understanding that these parts always should have continuity> thank you
For model number jvm1870sf02
Hello Pete, Thank you for the question.Yes, the parts should always have continuity. No continuity indicates the part is defective. Hope this helps, good luck with this repair!

The unit is not heating right. It is set to higest level 10 its just barely warmingl
For model number JVM1440WD001
Hi Bryan,
Thank you for your question. There are a couple of parts that you may want to check to see if they are working correctly. I would suggest testing your thermostat, your diode, and your hood thermostat as well. Those would be the most likely culprits. If they are all testing fine you may have to take a look at replacing your magnetron. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Should the hood thermostat always have continuity?
This is a GE model.
For model number jvm 1870cf03
Hello Don, Thank you for your inquiry. At room temperature, this thermostat should have a multimeter reading of zero or close to it. If it is not at room temperature, the reading should be infinity. We hope this helps and 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!

MICROWAVE HAS ERROR CODE F5 AND BEEPS. WILL REPLCING THE WB27X10194 THERMOSTAT SOLVE THIS PROBLEM?
For model number RVM1535DM2WW
Hello Robert, thank you for writing. The F5 error code indicates that you have an internal damper switch error. That type of internal component failure will need to be diagnosed and repaired by a service technician. Good luck with your repair.
