The microwave part my Sharp R959 microwave is not heating things up. One of the things causing the problem could apparently be a faulty capacitor. Would be most grateful if some knowledgeable member could enlighten me on the following:
1. The high voltage capacitor, (manuf. Elcomtec), is rated 1.16uF 2100VAC. what would the ESR range of the capacitor be.
2. A replacement from Sharp costs an arm and a leg and there doesn't appear to be an exact replacement available on the web. The nearest equivalent I could find was either 1.10uF (2100VAC or 2500 VAC) or a 1.20uF 2500VAC. What would the effect be of replacing the capacitor with one of this?
Many thanks
