Diode
Discharge Capacitor
Remove diode lead from capacitor and
connect ohmmeter.
Reverse leads for second test.
Remove diode lead from capacitor and
connect ohmmeter.
Reverse leads for second test.
Infinite resistance should be
measured in one direction and 50K
measured in one direction and 50K
Ω
or more in the opposite direction.
NOTE: Ohmmeter must contain a
battery of 6 volts minimum.

Capacitor
Discharge Capacitor
Remove wires from capacitor terminals
and connect ohmmeter, set on highest
resistance scale to terminals.
Also check between each terminal and
capacitor case.
Remove wires from capacitor terminals
and connect ohmmeter, set on highest
resistance scale to terminals.
Also check between each terminal and
capacitor case.
Between Terminals: Meter should
momentarily deflect towards zero
then return to over 5 M
Ω
. If no
deflection occurs, or if continuous
deflection occurs, replace capacitor.
Terminal to Case: Infinite resistance
deflection occurs, replace capacitor.
Terminal to Case: Infinite resistance
Magnetron
Discharge Capacitor
Remove wires from magnetron and
connect ohmmeter to terminals. Also
check between each terminal and
ground.
Remove wires from magnetron and
connect ohmmeter to terminals. Also
check between each terminal and
ground.
Between Terminals: Less than 1
Ω
Each terminal to ground measures
Infinite resistance.
Note: This test is not conclusive. If
oven does not heat and all other
components test good replace the
magnetron and retest.
