LG Microwave Service for Houses, Condos and Rentals
LG has no connection to us, and we aren't one of its authorized repair centers. If your microwave is still under LG's factory warranty, start with LG. After that coverage ends, send us the model number and what it's doing when you book; that lets us research parts before the visit.
How a Microwave Repair Visit Works
Book the Visit
The model tag (often behind the drawer or on the frame) and what it does or doesn't do when you turn it on.
Find the Fault
The technician checks heat sources, sensors and switches, and confirms the power or gas reaching the unit.
Your Go-Ahead
You hear the diagnosis and the price, and decide. If the repair isn't worth it, we'll tell you.
Fixed and Verified
After the repair we test a full cycle and check for leaks, noise or codes before we leave.
LG microwave design and construction
Many LG microwaves power the magnetron with an inverter board instead of the old heavy transformer, which gives true low-power cooking and moves the high-voltage fault point to the inverter. Others still use a transformer, capacitor, diode and magnetron. Over-the-range models double as the range hood, so the vent fan, lights and filters count too. Typical complaints: runs but won't heat, a door that blows the internal fuse, a touchpad that won't respond. High-voltage parts can hold a charge after unplugging, so internal testing is ours to do. Combination models with convection add an element and a second fan. In a condo, removing an over-the-range unit may need building approval for work hours.

Send us the make, the model tag and what the appliance is doing. Some problems can be narrowed down before anyone drives over; most need hands on the machine.
It uses an electronic inverter board to power the magnetron instead of a transformer. Low power settings truly run at lower power. When it fails, the inverter board is often the part, and it's tested differently from a transformer.
A worn door switch or a misaligned latch is the usual cause. The switches must open and close in a specific order. We replace the faulty switch and the fuse, then check the latch alignment.
