6324W1A001L Genuine LG OEM Microwave Magnetron
The 6324W1A001L is a genuine LG OEM magnetron for microwave ovens and microwave/oven combination units. The magnetron is the component that actually generates the microwave energy used to cook and heat food — it converts high-voltage electrical power into microwave-frequency radiation, which is then directed into the oven cavity by the waveguide to agitate water molecules in your food and produce heat. Without a functioning magnetron, every other part of the microwave can work perfectly — the turntable spins, the display counts down, the fan runs — while the food inside never actually heats up.
This is a genuine LG-manufactured magnetron used not only in LG microwaves but also, under LG's role as a shared component supplier, in microwaves sold under Frigidaire, Whirlpool, Kenmore, GE, Jenn-Air, Thermador, KitchenAid, Panasonic, Goldstar, Crosley, Gaggenau, Amana, and Bosch branding. Measuring approximately 4.5"L x 4.25"W x 5"H. A failed magnetron produces a distinct symptom: the microwave runs normally in every other respect — it powers on, the turntable turns, the timer counts down — but the food inside stays cold. Sparking or arcing behind the waveguide cover, visible burn marks on the magnetron, or a burning smell are also signs of magnetron failure or damage. It directly replaces 6324W1A001A, 6324W1A001B, 6324W1A001E, 6324W1A001H, 6324W1A001Y, AGF76878403, AP4457332, EAS42812905, EAS42812906, EAS42812937, PS3529034, and 1268208.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger — Microwave High-Voltage Capacitor Unplug the microwave before beginning any work. Microwaves contain a high-voltage capacitor that can store a dangerous, potentially lethal electrical charge even after the unit has been unplugged. Before opening the cabinet or touching any internal component, discharge the capacitor using an insulated screwdriver shorted across its terminals — never touch the capacitor or its terminals directly, and never work on a microwave's internals without performing this step first. If you are not fully comfortable and experienced with high-voltage discharge procedures, have a qualified appliance technician perform this repair instead.
⚠️ Test Other High-Voltage Components Before Assuming It's The Magnetron Wear work gloves. After confirming the capacitor is fully discharged, remove the outer cabinet to access the internal components. Before replacing the magnetron, it's worth testing the other high-voltage components — the transformer, diode, and capacitor — since a fault in any of these can produce similar "runs but doesn't heat" symptoms, and replacing the magnetron alone won't fix the problem if one of these other parts has actually failed. Photograph the magnetron's mounting and waveguide connection before removing anything. Disconnect the magnetron's electrical leads, remove the mounting screws securing it to the waveguide assembly, and carefully lift the old magnetron free. Install the new 6324W1A001L in the same orientation, aligning it correctly with the waveguide opening, and secure the mounting screws. Reconnect the electrical leads exactly as they were before removal. Reinstall the outer cabinet, restore power, and test with a cup of water to confirm normal heating without unusual sounds, sparking, or smoke. Tools needed: nut driver or socket set, Phillips screwdriver, insulated screwdriver for capacitor discharge, multimeter (for testing other components), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My microwave runs but doesn't heat anything. Is this the right part?
It's the most common cause of exactly that symptom. When the turntable spins, the display works, and the timer counts down normally, but food comes out just as cold as it went in, the magnetron has very likely failed. Other high-voltage components (the transformer, diode, or capacitor) can sometimes cause the same symptom, so if you're comfortable testing with a multimeter, it's worth ruling those out first — but a failed magnetron is the single most frequent cause reported for this exact complaint.
Why does the same part fit so many different brands?
LG manufactures magnetrons and other core components that get used across microwaves sold under many different brand names, since several appliance companies share manufacturing platforms or source key parts from the same suppliers rather than building everything in-house. This is a normal and well-documented part of how microwave manufacturing works — it doesn't mean the part is generic or lower quality, just that LG's magnetron design is used broadly across the industry.
I see sparking behind the cover inside the microwave. Is that the magnetron?
It can be. Sparking or arcing behind the waveguide cover, especially with visible smoke or a burning smell, points to damage in the magnetron or the waveguide area. Inspect the magnetron for burn marks once you've safely discharged the capacitor and opened the cabinet — if you see charring or damage, replacement is the correct fix. Stop using the microwave immediately if you notice sparking, smoke, or burning smells.
Do I need any special skills to replace this part?
This is a moderate DIY repair, and the key skill required isn't mechanical — it's safely discharging the microwave's high-voltage capacitor before doing anything else. If you're not fully confident performing that step correctly, this is a good repair to leave to a qualified appliance technician, since the capacitor can hold a dangerous charge even with the unit unplugged.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by LG to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original microwave frequency output, mounting configuration, and dimensions of the magnetron originally installed in your microwave.

Warning:The magnetron uses high voltage, high current DC power to generate the microwave frequency that cooks the food. If the magnetron burns out, the microwave won’t heat. The magnetron is not repairable—if the magnetron is burned out, you must replace it. (Warning: The microwave oven can store a lethal amount of electricity in its high voltage capacitor, even after the microwave oven has been unplugged. Due to the high running voltage and the potential for electric shock, it is extremely dangerous to replace the electronic components in a microwave. Only a licensed technician should replace the magnetron.)

MWC21095 Microwave High Voltage Capacitor (2100VAC, 0.95µF)
The MWC21095 is a universal high voltage capacitor for microwave ovens, part of the high-voltage power supply circuit that steps up household voltage to the extreme level the magnetron needs to generate cooking power. Working alongside the high-voltage diode and transformer, this capacitor doubles the rectified voltage feeding the magnetron — it's a core piece of why a microwave can produce thousands of volts internally from a standard household outlet.
Rated 2100VAC, 0.95µF, ±3% tolerance, oval aluminum can construction with two male terminals spaced 1/4" (6.35mm) apart. Overall dimensions approximately 3.35"H (body) x 2.75"W x 2.05"D, with the terminal housing adding roughly 1.3" to the total height. Over time, the internal dielectric can break down from repeated high-voltage cycling, causing the capacitor to lose capacitance or fail outright — sometimes shorting internally. Symptoms of a failing capacitor include the microwave running (light on, turntable turning, fan running) but not heating food, a buzzing or humming noise from the high-voltage compartment, arcing or sparking sounds, or the microwave tripping a breaker shortly after starting.
⚠️ Extreme Danger — Lethal Voltage Risk A microwave's high voltage capacitor can retain a lethal electrical charge for a long time after the microwave has been unplugged — this is one of the most dangerous components in any household appliance to work on. Even with the microwave fully unplugged, this capacitor can still deliver a fatal shock if handled incorrectly. Before touching any component in the high-voltage compartment, the capacitor must be safely discharged by shorting both terminals to the chassis ground using an insulated-handle screwdriver, and that discharge should be verified with a multimeter before proceeding. If you are not fully trained and confident in safely discharging a high voltage capacitor, do not attempt this repair — have a qualified appliance technician replace this part instead. This applies every time, regardless of how long the microwave has been unplugged.
Quick Answer
The MWC21095 Microwave High Voltage Capacitor fixes microwave ovens that run (light, turntable, fan all working) but don't heat food, make a buzzing or arcing sound from the high-voltage compartment, or trip the breaker shortly after starting. 2100VAC, 0.95µF, ±3%, oval, 2 male terminals (1/4"/6.35mm spacing). Retains a lethal electrical charge even after unplugging — must be properly discharged before any handling.

This is a universal component rather than a single-manufacturer part, so the specific OEM number your microwave's label references will vary by brand (GE, Whirlpool, Frigidaire, Samsung, LG, and others). This capacitor is a correct replacement for any microwave capacitor matching the 2100VAC, 0.95µF specification. If you have your original part number, contact our support team and we will verify compatibility before you order.
Compatibility
This capacitor is a universal replacement compatible with household microwave ovens across all major brands — GE, Whirlpool, Frigidaire, Samsung, LG, and others — wherever the original capacitor is rated:
2100VAC
0.95µF (or a rating within roughly 10–20% higher than your original — see FAQ)
Oval shape with 2 male terminals, 1/4" (6.35mm) spacing
Note: Voltage rating must match your original capacitor exactly — never substitute a lower voltage rating, and don't assume a higher voltage rating is automatically safe on this component the way it is with an HVAC run capacitor, since the high-voltage diode in the circuit must also be rated to match. Capacitance (µF) has more tolerance than voltage: a modest increase over the original rating is generally acceptable, but always try to match as closely as possible. If you're unsure whether this capacitor matches your microwave's original specification, check the rating printed on your existing capacitor's can before ordering, or contact our support team for help confirming compatibility.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Extreme Danger — Discharge Fully Before Any Contact Unplug the microwave and wait, but never assume the capacitor is safe based on time alone. Remove the outer cabinet to access the high-voltage compartment. Before touching anything else, discharge the capacitor by shorting both terminals to the chassis ground using an insulated-handle screwdriver — do this deliberately and do not rush. Verify the capacitor reads no charge with a multimeter before proceeding. Never assume a capacitor is discharged just because time has passed, and never touch the terminals directly, even with the microwave unplugged. If you are not completely confident performing this discharge procedure safely, stop and have a qualified appliance technician complete this repair.
⚠️ Match The Terminal Wiring Exactly Wear insulated gloves and safety glasses. After confirming the capacitor is fully discharged, photograph the wiring on both terminals before disconnecting anything. Remove the mounting bracket or strap holding the old capacitor in place, and disconnect each wire from its terminal. Install the new MWC21095 in the same mounting position, and reconnect each wire to its matching terminal exactly as photographed — the two terminals are not interchangeable in some circuit configurations, so accuracy here matters. Secure the mounting bracket or strap. Reinstall the outer cabinet before restoring power. Plug the microwave back in and test with a cup of water to confirm normal heating without unusual noise.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it really dangerous to work on this even with the microwave unplugged?
Yes, genuinely. This is one of the most dangerous repairs a person can attempt on a household appliance, because this capacitor is specifically capable of retaining a lethal electrical charge long after the microwave has lost power. Unplugging the microwave is a necessary first step, but it does not make the capacitor safe to touch on its own — proper discharge with an insulated tool, verified with a multimeter, is required every time before any contact with this component.
My microwave runs completely normally — light, turntable, fan — but food doesn't heat. Is this the capacitor?
It's one of the most common causes of exactly that symptom. Since the capacitor is part of the circuit that generates the high voltage the magnetron needs, a failed capacitor can leave every other function of the microwave working normally while the actual cooking power is missing entirely.
Can I use a capacitor with a slightly different µF rating than my original?
Some tolerance is generally acceptable here — a modest increase over your original rating, often cited as up to roughly 10-20% higher, typically works fine, since the capacitance value isn't as tightly critical to the magnetron's operation as some assume. That said, always aim to match your original rating as closely as possible, and never substitute a different voltage rating; the voltage must match your original capacitor exactly.
Should I replace the high-voltage diode at the same time?
It's worth considering. The capacitor and diode work together in the same high-voltage circuit, and a failure in one can sometimes stress or damage the other. If your capacitor failed and you're already taking the precautions needed to safely access this compartment, it may be a reasonable time to inspect or replace the diode as well, particularly if the microwave shows signs of a more significant electrical fault.
Is this a genuine OEM part?
This is a universal replacement part rather than a brand-specific OEM part. Because high voltage capacitors of this type are a standardized component defined by their electrical specifications, this capacitor is a correct replacement for any microwave's original capacitor sharing the same 2100VAC, 0.95µF rating — regardless of which brand originally installed it.

4 Pack - XPARTCO EXP480 Microwave Door Switch (NC - NO) Normally Closed / Open
The XPARTCO EXP480 is a universal replacement door interlock switch for microwave ovens and microwave/oven combination units. This is a critical safety component: microwave door interlock switches exist specifically to cut power to the magnetron the instant the door opens, preventing any possibility of microwave radiation escaping the cavity while the door isn't fully closed and latched. This switch combines both a normally closed (NC) and normally open (NO) contact set in a single body, matching the dual-contact design used across a wide range of microwave door latch mechanisms.
Rated 16A maximum current, 250VAC maximum voltage, with an IP40 protection rating. Over time, these switch contacts can wear, pit, or fuse together from repeated cycling and the electrical load they carry every time the door opens and closes. A failing interlock switch typically shows up as a microwave that won't start at all, a display that works but the unit won't heat, or in less common but more serious cases, a switch that has fused shut and continues carrying current even when it shouldn't. It directly replaces 28QBP0496, W10211972, 4375346, W10330566, WPW10330566, 1472224, 4393442, 4393498, 4393570, 4393697, 4393881, 461967848881, 8206345, W10131248, W10217468, AH2338920, EA2338920, AP4357880, PS2338920, KW3A-16Z0-A200-76, W10727360, W10269457, 3379124, AP5950105, and PS10057151.

Compatibility
This door switch is a universal replacement compatible with convection microwave ovens, grill microwave ovens, microwave/oven combination units, and solo microwave ovens across many brands, wherever the original switch matches this NC/NO contact configuration and electrical rating.
Note: Microwave door interlock systems typically use two or three separate switches working together (primary interlock, monitor/secondary switch, and sometimes a third safety switch), and not all of them share this same NC/NO configuration. Confirm which specific switch position has failed on your microwave, and match the contact configuration and electrical rating exactly — never substitute a switch with a different configuration. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure which switch your microwave needs.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger — Never Bypass A Door Interlock Switch Unplug the microwave before beginning any work, and if it's a built-in or over-the-range unit, shut off power at the breaker as well. Microwave ovens also contain a high-voltage capacitor that can retain a dangerous electrical charge even after the unit is unplugged — avoid touching internal components near the capacitor and magnetron. Door interlock switches are a critical safety system: they exist specifically to cut power the instant the door opens, preventing microwave radiation from escaping the cavity. Never operate a microwave with an interlock switch disconnected, bypassed, or jumpered, even temporarily — doing so can expose you and others to microwave radiation. If you are not fully comfortable working inside a microwave's internal compartment, have a qualified appliance technician perform this repair instead.
⚠️ Photograph Wiring Before Disconnecting — Match The Failed Switch Exactly Wear work gloves. Remove the outer cabinet or access panel per your model's service instructions to reach the door switch assembly, typically located near the door latch mechanism. Photograph the wiring on the old switch before disconnecting anything, and confirm you're replacing the correct switch position if your microwave uses multiple interlock switches. Disconnect the wire terminals from the old switch, remove its mounting screws, and pull it free. Install the new EXP480 in the same position, reconnect each wire terminal to its original position, and secure the mounting screws. Reinstall the cabinet or access panel. Restore power and test that the microwave starts normally with the door closed, and — this is the critical safety check — confirm the unit stops heating immediately when the door is opened during a test run with a cup of water. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My microwave stopped working. How do I know if it's actually a door switch and not something else?
A common pattern is a microwave where the display and buttons respond normally, but pressing start does nothing, or the unit hums without heating — this points toward the door interlock circuit rather than the control board. Since these switches also serve a critical safety function, if you suspect a fault in this area, it's best to have it properly diagnosed and replaced rather than working around the symptom.
Is it safe to just disconnect a faulty interlock switch so the microwave will run?
No — this is not safe under any circumstances. Door interlock switches exist specifically to cut power to the magnetron the instant the door opens, preventing microwave radiation from escaping. Bypassing, disconnecting, or jumpering one of these switches removes that protection and can expose you and anyone nearby to microwave radiation, even if the microwave otherwise appears to run normally. Always replace a faulty switch with a correctly rated new one rather than working around it.
My microwave trips the breaker whenever I open the door. What does that mean?
This can indicate that one of the door switches — often the one that should open when the door opens — has fused or welded its contacts shut from repeated electrical stress, so it continues carrying current when it shouldn't. This is a genuine safety concern and the affected switch should be replaced promptly rather than continuing to use the microwave.
My microwave uses more than one door switch. How do I know which one to replace?
Most microwaves use two or three separate interlock switches working together, and they don't always share the same contact configuration. Check your appliance's parts diagram or the physical switch you're replacing to confirm it matches this NC/NO combination design before ordering, and always test or verify function with a multimeter if you're uncertain which specific switch has failed.

This door switch is a universal replacement compatible with convection microwave ovens, grill microwave ovens, microwave/oven combination units, and solo microwave ovens across many brands, wherever the original switch matches this NC/NO contact configuration and electrical rating.
Note: Microwave door interlock systems typically use two or three separate switches working together (primary interlock, monitor/secondary switch, and sometimes a third safety switch), and not all of them share this same NC/NO configuration. Confirm which specific switch position has failed on your microwave, and match the contact configuration and electrical rating exactly — never substitute a switch with a different configuration. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure which switch your microwave needs.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger — Never Bypass A Door Interlock Switch Unplug the microwave before beginning any work, and if it's a built-in or over-the-range unit, shut off power at the breaker as well. Microwave ovens also contain a high-voltage capacitor that can retain a dangerous electrical charge even after the unit is unplugged — avoid touching internal components near the capacitor and magnetron. Door interlock switches are a critical safety system: they exist specifically to cut power the instant the door opens, preventing microwave radiation from escaping the cavity. Never operate a microwave with an interlock switch disconnected, bypassed, or jumpered, even temporarily — doing so can expose you and others to microwave radiation. If you are not fully comfortable working inside a microwave's internal compartment, have a qualified appliance technician perform this repair instead.
⚠️ Photograph Wiring Before Disconnecting — Match The Failed Switch Exactly Wear work gloves. Remove the outer cabinet or access panel per your model's service instructions to reach the door switch assembly, typically located near the door latch mechanism. Photograph the wiring on the old switch before disconnecting anything, and confirm you're replacing the correct switch position if your microwave uses multiple interlock switches. Disconnect the wire terminals from the old switch, remove its mounting screws, and pull it free. Install the new EXP480 in the same position, reconnect each wire terminal to its original position, and secure the mounting screws. Reinstall the cabinet or access panel. Restore power and test that the microwave starts normally with the door closed, and — this is the critical safety check — confirm the unit stops heating immediately when the door is opened during a test run with a cup of water. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My microwave stopped working. How do I know if it's actually a door switch and not something else?
A common pattern is a microwave where the display and buttons respond normally, but pressing start does nothing, or the unit hums without heating — this points toward the door interlock circuit rather than the control board. Since these switches also serve a critical safety function, if you suspect a fault in this area, it's best to have it properly diagnosed and replaced rather than working around the symptom.
Is it safe to just disconnect a faulty interlock switch so the microwave will run?
No — this is not safe under any circumstances. Door interlock switches exist specifically to cut power to the magnetron the instant the door opens, preventing microwave radiation from escaping. Bypassing, disconnecting, or jumpering one of these switches removes that protection and can expose you and anyone nearby to microwave radiation, even if the microwave otherwise appears to run normally. Always replace a faulty switch with a correctly rated new one rather than working around it.
My microwave trips the breaker whenever I open the door. What does that mean?
This can indicate that one of the door switches — often the one that should open when the door opens — has fused or welded its contacts shut from repeated electrical stress, so it continues carrying current when it shouldn't. This is a genuine safety concern and the affected switch should be replaced promptly rather than continuing to use the microwave.
My microwave uses more than one door switch. How do I know which one to replace?
Most microwaves use two or three separate interlock switches working together, and they don't always share the same contact configuration. Check your appliance's parts diagram or the physical switch you're replacing to confirm it matches this NC/NO combination design before ordering, and always test or verify function with a multimeter if you're uncertain which specific switch has failed.

XPG499 Microwave Door Switch (Normally Closed)
The XPG499 is a universal replacement normally closed (NC) door interlock switch for microwave ovens and microwave/oven combination units. This is a critical safety component: microwave door interlock switches exist specifically to cut power to the magnetron the instant the door opens, preventing any possibility of microwave radiation escaping the cavity while the door isn't fully closed and latched. This switch's normally closed contact design matches a wide range of microwave door latch mechanisms across GE, Whirlpool, Samsung, LG, Kenmore, and other brands.
Rated 16A, 125/250VAC. Over time, this switch's contacts can wear, pit, or fuse together from repeated cycling and the electrical load carried every time the door opens and closes. A failing interlock switch typically shows up as a microwave that won't start at all, a display that works but the unit won't heat, or intermittent operation tied to the door latch area. This is the normally closed counterpart to our EXP497 (normally open) and EXP480 (combined NC/NO) listings — always confirm which specific contact configuration your microwave's failed switch uses before ordering.
Quick Answer
The XPG499 Microwave Door Switch (Normally Closed) fixes microwave ovens and microwave/oven combos that won't start, won't heat, or operate intermittently near the door latch area. 16A, 125/250VAC, normally closed (NC) contact design. Never operate a microwave with a bypassed, disconnected, or suspected-faulty door interlock switch — these switches exist to prevent radiation exposure and must always be replaced with a properly rated part, never removed or defeated.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Microwave won't start at all, even though the display and buttons respond normally
Microwave display and timer work, but the unit won't heat
Microwave stops working intermittently, especially around the door latch
Clicking or buzzing sound from the door area without the microwave starting
Breaker tripping when the door is opened, indicating a switch contact that has fused shut
Door that doesn't feel like it's latching securely

Always replace a faulty switch with a correctly rated new one rather than working around it.
How is this different from your EXP497 and EXP480 listings?
These are different contact configurations for different switch positions in a microwave's door interlock system. This XPG499 is normally closed (NC) only. Our EXP497 listing is normally open (NO) only, and our EXP480 listing combines both NC and NO contacts in a single switch body. Since most microwaves use two or three interlock switches with different configurations, check which contact type your specific failed switch uses before ordering.
My microwave trips the breaker whenever I open the door. What does that mean?
This can indicate that one of the door switches has fused or welded its contacts shut from repeated electrical stress, so it continues carrying current when it shouldn't. This is a genuine safety concern and the affected switch should be replaced promptly rather than continuing to use the microwave.
