It's a $100 microwave, buy a new one.
Certainly a viable option if using tools is not your thing, however, if you can turn a screwdriver and you are fairly intelligent when it comes to respecting electricity (remember the unit is unplugged so all you have to worry about is the capacitors) then the savings is worth it.
Sure would be a shame to spend another hundred on a new unit when a half hour of tool time and a three dollar part would get it going again.
Mine is a Microwave/convection oven as I have no gas oven in my rig so it would cost much more than a hundred to replace.
