A microwave is a high-voltage appliance first
The part of a microwave that heats food is a magnetron, a tube that generates microwave energy when it is fed several thousand volts. A transformer and a high-voltage capacitor build that voltage. The capacitor can keep a dangerous charge long after the microwave has been unplugged, which is why opening the outer cabinet is not a do-it-yourself job, even for someone handy with other appliances.
Around that high-voltage section are ordinary parts: a door with several interlock switches, a turntable motor, a light, a cooling fan, a thermal cutoff, a control board and a keypad. Many common microwave problems are actually in this lower-voltage group, and the symptom usually tells which group to look at first.
