Same thing happened to me a couple months ago. Buy your wife a nice new one,
she will be happy. Spend your time putting an old PDP-11 together instead.

Subject: Microwave oven collectors?
My 17 year old "microprocessor controlled"
microwave oven stopped making
food hot the other night. Everything still appears and sounds about the
same, just food stays cold, and when it first happened there was a bit of
the smell of the gates of capacitor heaven being open. Should I take a
swing at fixing it, or yield to the cheap new inverter technology?
Victim is a Panasonic Dimension 3 microwave/convection oven (top of the
line those many moons ago). Location is SoCal.
