Sub-Zero Microwave Burning Plastic Smell from Microwave in Flatbush, NY

No. Microwave capacitors can hold a lethal charge of up to 2,000 volts even when unplugged. Always call a certified professional for microwave repair. Our NYC technicians are trained in high-voltage appliance safety.

Stop using the microwave immediately. Sparking is usually caused by a damaged waveguide cover, a burnt-out stirrer motor, or metal accidentally left inside. Call ProFix at (929) 699-8358 — we can diagnose whether the unit is economically repairable or should be replaced.

An over-the-range microwave that won't stop running the fan has a failed thermal switch or control board. A stuck relay keeps the fan running after the auto-cool cycle should end. We can diagnose and fix same-day.

If your microwave is under 5 years old or a high-end model (over-the-range, built-in, or convection), repair is usually worth it. A failed magnetron, diode, or capacitor can be replaced at a fraction of replacement cost. We'll give you an honest assessment.
