It works with the HV transformer and capacitor to produce the high DC voltage the magnetron needs. We don't have a list of models for it, so match the number and the look of your old diode before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMicrowave not heating or buzzing loudly? Test the HV diode\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HV diode only lets current flow one way, which turns the transformer's high AC output into the DC voltage the magnetron runs on. Diodes can fail shorted or open. A shorted diode often causes a loud hum or buzz and may blow the main fuse, while an open diode leaves the magnetron without power, so the oven runs but food stays cold. Because the capacitor, diode and magnetron can all cause a no-heat fault, a technician will usually test each one rather than guess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 5550428022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh voltage diode for a microwave HV circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConverts the transformer output for the magnetron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrdered by part number, no model list on file\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMicrowave high voltage safety\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly a trained technician should work inside a microwave. Unplug the oven and discharge the HV capacitor before touching the diode or any high voltage wiring, as it can stay charged after the power is off. Fit the new diode the same way round as the old one, with each end on the same terminal. Have the oven leakage tested before it's used again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould the capacitor be replaced at the same time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnly if it tests faulty.
