Q: What is the most common cause of microwave failure?

• <div><p>The magnetron, which generates the microwave energy to heat food, is one of the most common components to fail. When the magnetron fails, the microwave can no longer heat food. Other frequently failing parts include the door switch, which prevents the microwave from operating if the door is not securely closed, the light bulb, and control panel buttons that may stop responding. Repairing a broken magnetron usually costs between $100 and $200, or $175 on average. About half of that cost is for labor and the other half is for the new part, though costs may be higher for high-end models.</p></div>

Q: What shortens the life of an oven?

• <div><p>If you do not perform proper, regular maintenance, your oven's life span will be shortened. Make sure to thoroughly clean your oven regularly, including coils, ranges, and other parts. In addition, use the self-cleaning mode sparingly; it&rsquo;s hard on your appliance. When you do use it, carefully follow the manufacturer&rsquo;s instructions. </p></div>

Q: Is it worth fixing a 10-year-old oven?

• <div><p>Considering ovens can last 15 years (and sometimes more), it is likely a better idea to repair a 10-year-old oven, assuming the repair won&rsquo;t cost more than 50% of the oven&rsquo;s value. So, for instance, if your oven is worth <b>$1,200</b> and the repair is only <b>$400</b>, it&rsquo;s a better option to complete the repair.</p></div>

Q: Can I run two refrigerators on the same circuit?

• <div><p>No, you should not run two refrigerators on the same circuit as it is likely to overload the circuit and cause the breaker to trip or worse&mdash;cause an electrical fire. Each standard-size refrigerator should be on a dedicated 20-amp circuit. You should never plug a refrigerator into an extension cord or power strip as it can cause serious safety hazards. Refrigerators have built-in surge protection that safeguards them from the damage of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-electrical-power-surge.htm">power surges</a>.</p></div>

Q: How do you remove smoke damage from a microwave?

• <div><p>To <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-get-rid-burnt-smell.htm">get rid of the smoke smell</a> in a microwave, scrape off any burnt food residue and throw it away. Next, warm a cup of water in a microwave-safe container for three minutes. Then, dip a microfiber cloth into a mixture of water and a couple of drops of dish soap and wipe down the inside of the microwave. Dry the inside of the microwave with a fresh cloth and let everything air out for three hours. </p></div>
