Power is on but no heat. No humming sound - RESOLVED
Turn table works and light is on but I do not hear the humming sound microwave typically makes.
Is it a bad magatron?. I checked resistance on megatron and it is .01. Visually it seems okay

Is this the same oven as before?
Did you trace the wiring from the transformer to the diode/capacitor and magnetron etc as I suggested in the update in this link a while ago?
fuse blows after running 2., 3 seconds. transformer bad?

@jayeff
yes i did. I actually found high voltage is showing the transformer is shorted since I asked you. I measured wrong first time. I replaced the transformer and it will not blow the fuse any more. However, it still didn't work. no heat. resistance from magnetron was .2 which seemed okay as I asked here. However, I ordered and replaced magnetron and it works now. I guess resistane test does not reveal if magnetron is bad or not. From youtube video I found, that was the only testing youtuber was doing or I was just unlukcy. I spent way more than I wanted (about 150, I bought a generic brand part ) to but still cheaper than new one (about 700 with trim kit) and had a fun fixing this myself. I want to thank alot for the support and answer.
