Parts That Fix Kenmore Microwave 79080339310 Won’t turn on

This fuse, also known as a cartridge fuse, is a genuine OEM replacement part for microwaves. It has a glass cylindrical body with a metal cap on each end. The cap connects the fuse to the circuit.

Once the fuse is blown, the appliance will likely not operate at all, however, the fuse is designed to be easily replaceable. It is recommended to use insulated gloves and to avoid touching any exposed wiring connections. To replace the fuse, use a fuse puller to grip the metal caps and lift it out of the holder.
