In a microwave oven, the mica cover is the thin panel inside the cavity that shields the waveguide opening, where microwave energy enters the cooking space. The stock description doesn't give the cover's size or the appliance model, so check the number on your old cover or the parts list for your oven before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMicrowave sparking inside? Check the mica cover\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMica lets microwave energy pass through while keeping food splatter and steam out of the waveguide. Over time, grease and food soak into the mica and carbonise. Once that happens, the cover can spark, arc, burn through or leave black marks, often with a crackling noise and a burning smell while the oven is running. Ignoring it can damage the waveguide and, eventually, the magnetron. A cover that's only lightly marked can sometimes be cleaned, but a burnt, swollen or holed cover should be replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux group part 140162957017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMica cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize and shape not on file, compare with your old cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaces a burnt, swollen or sparking cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChanging the mica cover\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the microwave first. Never remove the outer cabinet, as the high voltage parts inside can hold a dangerous charge even when unplugged.
