He told me up front that these have a separate igniter for each cavity, so one failing is not the same job as two, and quoted for the one that had actually gone. That kind of straightness is why I will call again.

The wider area
What the Boston Metro has in common
Inner-ring kitchens are the tightest we work in. Brownstone and triple-decker conversions put built-in refrigeration into cavities that were never sized for it, and the single most common underlying cause of a warm unit here is a condenser with nowhere to reject its heat.

Holding around twenty and going no lower no matter what I set. Thermostat read fine, so I assumed compressor and a big bill. He found a defrost cycle that ran and cleared nothing, traced it to the thermostat sensor. Relieved.

A loud hum on microwave with nothing actually heating. Turned out to be the power supply rather than the magnetron itself, which he said is worth checking first because it is the cheaper of the two. It was.
