    Our 2 year old samsung microwave is no longer working (won't turn on). It's out of warranty so wondering does anyone know where we could get it repaired?

    Other than usual basic checks outside for power supply, niggly loose wires or fuses, there may not be much else you can do.
    Does display light up at least or just nothing at all ?
    It may be LV ( low voltage) or HV issue.


    Any recent history .... such as metal objects accidentally placed in oven. On Combo units,
    it's an easy mistake seen to happen is someone selects Microwave rather than basic Electric Heat function with metal trays in.
    It's diminishing returns on Repair v Buy Replacement if it turns out to be High Voltage magnetron, tranny, cap and diode inside.

    Only persons competent with electronics/ electrics should test these components.

    It's probably cheaper to buy a new one. Repairs to appliances are usually false economy
