A microwave that runs but doesn't heat usually has a failed high-voltage part, and that is not a safe do-it-yourself repair: the capacitor can hold a charge even when unplugged.
Most homes have a driveway and garage; mention a basement or garage appliance when you book.

Reading the symptom
Runs, light on, turntable spins, food stays cold: the classic sign of a high-voltage fault. The magnetron, high-voltage diode, capacitor or transformer has failed, or a thermal cutoff on the magnetron has opened. A buzzing or humming that is louder than usual often comes with it.
Completely dead, no display: a blown internal fuse, frequently caused by a door interlock switch that has failed and shorted. When the fuse blows, the interlock switches have to be checked too, or the new fuse will blow again.
Starts and stops randomly, or will not start with the door closed: door interlock switches or a misaligned door. A door that has been slammed for years or a cracked latch hook is a common root cause.
Sparks inside: metal in the cavity, a damaged waveguide cover, or chipped paint inside the cavity exposing bare metal. Stop using it until it is inspected; continuous arcing can damage the magnetron.
Keypad unresponsive or pressing itself: a worn membrane keypad, often from steam or cleaning spray getting behind it, or a control board fault.
Turntable not turning, but the food still heats: the turntable motor under the floor of the cavity, or a coupler that has cracked. Food heating unevenly on a model without a turntable usually points to the stirrer that spreads the energy around the cavity.
