That must be one coveted micowave oven. :D I replaced our Amana Radarrange 15 yrs. to the date it was assembled. Bought a new Sharp for 1/4 the price 5 yrs. ago and itis still going strong.
As far as I know the weakest link is the transformer and it isn't cost effective to replace them. The good news is the broken ones make a nice bin for welding rods.

That old Amana was something! The damned things are so cheap its not worth the time to fix anymore. With the free trade crap Washington allows all that China junk in here. Not an Amana by no means. Boards and transformers go and you toss 'em.

I am in the washer-dryer repair business now. Was selling appliances and hated microwaves. Got to where I just said pick one. Good post though--good luck.

Hummm..I don’t know about that,
That would be a little bit like scraping an SX1250 just because
new receivers can be had pretty cheap. Eddy has the problem
with his M/W pretty much narrowed down so hopefully you will
be seeing a repair success story sometime next week.
 
Wasn't there an urban ledgend(or might have been true:scratch2:) about a early 60's color TV that just for a millisecond would implode, pulled some nails out of the wall and killed some folks, theoriticaly, possibly, possible Black-Hole maker??:scratch2: suck the butt outta the cat, now that would be fun:D

My wife & I bought a 1000W Sanyo in 1986, our first capital equipment purchase together. Still have it, still use it. For what we need a microwave for, it has done yeoman's service.

I want one, for the next time the neighbors cat craps in my veggie garden.
When I flang some of the crap on his concrete covered house I learned something, that's why they call it stucco....:yes:

The wife and I got back early from the trip to our Mothers Day outing in Vermont.

Had a great breakfast with the in-laws, and a great lunch with mine.

We got back and I said, "I'm fixin' that damned thing right now!" It turned out to be just a bad magnetron.

Fixed and workin' just fine.

My 10 yr old son even had enough time to catch a few trout.

A pretty good Mothers Day in 2008 for all! :thmbsp:
