Everything Worked Fine But It Stopped Heating The Food.
Take the four saftey torx screws off the back of microwave that hold the side panels on. There are no screws in the front. Just pick up the side panels a little and slide towards the back of microwave and it will come off. The magnetron is visible behind control panel. Unplug the magetron, take a 3/8 nut driver , remove the one bolt that holds it on , remove and replace with the new one. Plug the wire (it will only go one way) back up and replace cover.

tray would slowly rotate when door was open.
I determined that one of the 4 micro switches that interface with the door was faulty. Ordered that part and replaced it. Had to remove the cover and front control panel (without removing any connections. Two philips screws hold the limit switch assembly to the bracket. After removing those screws, twist the whole switch assembly clockwise around the mounting frame and now you can remove the defective micro switch and replace it with a new one. This works for any of the 4 switches.

Went through diagnosis of the product, unit was not heating, fund the following items that were faulty, Wave unit was n/g, transformer ohm specs were n/g, also replaced main board due to poor LED visibility, changed out diode and capacitor due to age of the unit, unit working perfectly now.
