Repairs

• There are many microwave oven repairs you can do on your own such as replacing the door handle or fixing the lower door interlock. Other repairs will require a professional, such as replacing the fuse or the magnetron used for heating.
  
  

Service

• The official Frigidaire website (see Resources) has links to service locations and where to buy replacement parts. Frigidaire's toll free number to answer questions, purchase parts and locate a service center is (800) 374-4432.
  
  

Time Frame

• On average, microwave ovens have a lifespan of about 10 years, according to Good Housekeeping. If your Frigidaire microwave is still working after that time, you can continue to use it safely. If it needs repair after 10 years, it is probably best to purchase a new one.
  
  

Solution

• With purchase of a Frigidaire microwave oven, you can purchase a 1-, 2-, or 3-year service contract. The service contract entails you up to 3 years of service from a qualified Frigidaire repairman that will come to your home to repair the microwave. If the repairman is unable to repair the microwave, you will be given a replacement.
  
  

Warning

• If your microwave oven door leaks or does not seal properly when shut, buy a new microwave. The door is what keeps the microwaves from harming people.
