Fucking Irony Man!
Well, I know way more than I ever wanted to know about how a microwave works now. I won’t trouble you with the scientific details of the magnetron or the incredibly high voltage that runs through the oven when it’s energized; I won’t even bother talking about how some parts inside are so powerful that they don’t bother grounding them because they produce energy faster than the ground can dissipate the charge. What I will tell you though, what may save your ass one day if you post stupid questions about your oven on the Internet and then it breaks down the next day, is this: it’s probably just the internal fuse…replace it, maybe you’ll spend $10. That’s all there is to it! I’m glad my oven is working now, but I really didn’t need this education!
