-Why does fues get blown with new capacitor and diode
+fuse blows with new capacitor and diode, SOS

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

the oven runs about 2 seconds, then makes strange sound and blows the fuse.
-When i checked with diode, it seemed bad and replaced along with new capacitor. why would it make a strange sound and blow the fuse?..Magetron seemm okay and door switches seem okay too. I am planning to just replace switches hoping but i doubt if that’s the issue.
+I tried new capacitor and diode. no change fuse still blows. capacitor was okay but diode was out of spec before replaced.
-Any idea?
+I happen to disconnect monitor switch. no change. fuse still blows
+
+I disconnected megatron. no change. fuse still blows. megatron seems okay.
+
+there is discolorazation on the connector to monitor switch. I am not sure if that means anything but it seems to work.
+
+I am beginning to think i should replace switches and see..if it does not work, i might just give up to fix this microwave. I am suspecting transformer. I can’t find the spec to test transformer. Is there any specific resistence I should be getting. Also is there any generic part I can purchase?…OEM seems expensive.
+
+due to high price of trim kit, i really wanted to fix this microwave.
+
+it’s GE peb2060sm1ss, 9 years old.
