Hi Rahim,

This microwave is not very simple. If you know how to handle a simple tools and how to use a simple multimeter then you probably can do it yourself. If you do not feel yourself comfortable to work with it then probably is better to call a certified technician.

Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for WHIRLPOOL RMC275PDQ1 | AppliancePartsPros.com

Here is the Service manual.

Have you tested these parts before replacing them?

Burning electrical smell in most cases is a sign of a bad transformer, but do not rush with the part before you confirm it is bad.
