If the microwave has several symptoms, start with the one that affects normal use most. Then add details about microwave not heating, turntable and door faults, and controls, buzzing, sparking, fan, or light, any displayed message, and whether the appliance should be stopped for safety before more use.
Mention whether the problem began after a normal cycle, a power interruption, a cleaning attempt, or a change in use. For repeated failures, mention whether the symptom changed after cleaning accessible areas, adjusting a setting, or trying a normal restart. If water is spreading, protect the area only where it is safe and do not reach into standing water around electrical parts.

A microwave that runs without heating is different from one that will not start. Door switches, controls, fans, turntable parts, and the high-voltage system may need separate checks.

Testing helps confirm which system is actually responsible before parts are replaced.
If the microwave runs but does not heat, note whether the turntable, display, light, and fan still operate, then avoid internal disassembly.
