We’ve seen and solved every type of microwave problem. Some of the most common include:
🔹Microwave not turning on: Often caused by bad door switches, blown fuses, or defective control boards.
🔹Strange noises or sparks: Buzzing, humming, or sparking can signal motor, magnetron, or fan issues. Sparking could mean a damaged seal or waveguide cover—call us right away.
🔹Door latch or seal problems: Faulty latches or worn gaskets prevent the door from sealing properly, which is a safety issue.
🔹No heat or uneven heating: Usually a magnetron, diode, or waveguide problem.
🔹Control panel or keypad malfunctions: Aging keypads and control boards become unresponsive over time.
If your microwave has these or other issues, don’t guess—let our experts diagnose and fix it safely.

We’re often asked, “How much does microwave repair cost in Sacramento?” The answer depends on the problem and the brand, but basic fixes run about $50–$150. More expensive parts, like magnetrons or control boards, can push the bill higher. As a rule of thumb:
👉 Repair if the fix costs less than 50% of the price of a new microwave and your unit is less than 5–7 years old.
👉 Replace if your microwave is older, has multiple issues, or requires a costly component.
During your diagnosis, we’ll explain all options and help you decide what makes sense—no hard sell.
