12.7 Checking the semiconductors using a resistance meter

Microwave oven shuts down 
between 15 - 33 seconds. 
Set the microwave oven to test 
mode
Set to high power 1 minute.
H97 or H98 appears in the dis-
play and the microwave oven 
stops working
Program for 1 minute and per-
form the following test
