IMy MWO stopped heating. I found the diode measured 20 ohms in both directions (shorted?). I replaced it with one from my parts place. It still doesn't heat. I measured 120 VAC across the primary on the HV transformer.
Any ideas?:confused:

Well 20 ohms definitely isn’t right so the old diode is bad. All most every time I see a diode bad the magnetron tube is also bad. Microwave Repair Guide
