Hello friends,
is here someone around who is experienced in microwaves?
I've got a panasonic "dimension 4" with a blown 10-A-fuse. Replacing it allowes the display to work, starting a cooking process blows the fuse again.
I found that the protection diode at the high-voltage-capacitor reads a resistance of apx. 100 Ohms both directions (should be infinite due to repair manual).
Is there a chance to make the microwave work again by replacing the diode - or is the diode damaged for any other component (magnetron or so) is gone?
Greetings - and all the best wishes for the next year
