White Whale Microwave Repair in Egypt — Hotline 19580
Microwave ovens carry high-voltage components that stay charged after unplugging. This is one appliance you should never open yourself.
A microwave that runs but does not heat
If the light comes on, the turntable spins and the fan runs but food stays cold, the microwave energy path has failed rather than the control circuit. The usual suspects are the magnetron itself, the high-voltage diode, the capacitor, or one of the thermal cut-outs that protect the cavity. Testing these safely requires discharging the capacitor first, which is why this is not a do-it-yourself job under any circumstances. Our engineers carry the right meters and the right discharge tools.
Sparking inside the cavity
Arcing is usually caused by damaged cavity paint exposing bare metal, a burnt waveguide cover, food residue carbonised onto a surface, or metal trim on a dish. It is not automatically a sign that the oven is finished. Replacing the waveguide cover and refinishing the cavity restores safe operation in many units, and it is a low-cost repair — provided the damage is caught early rather than left to spread.

Noise, turntable and door faults
A grinding sound normally comes from the turntable motor or roller ring, a loud hum from the transformer under load. Doors are safety-critical: three interlock switches confirm the door is shut before power is applied, and a failed interlock will either stop the oven working or, far more dangerously, allow it to run with the door ajar. We test all three every visit as a matter of routine, even when you called us about something else.
Genuine parts and safety testing
Magnetrons, diodes, capacitors, interlocks, waveguide covers and turntable motors are fitted as original White Whale parts. Every repaired unit is leak-tested and run through a heating test before we hand it back, and the results are noted on your invoice alongside the warranty period.
Please call 19580 for immediate service, or 17718 to book a service visit. For warranty questions and follow-up, contact White Whale customer service on 15607.

When replacement is the honest advice
On some low-cost models the magnetron and transformer together cost more than a new oven. When that is the case we tell you, with numbers, rather than taking the job. Straight advice is cheaper for you and better for us in the long run.

Frequently asked questions about microwaves
Is it safe to keep using a sparking microwave?
No. Stop using it and unplug it. Please call 19580 for immediate service — arcing damages the cavity quickly and the repair gets more expensive every day you delay.
My microwave runs but food stays cold — what is it?
Almost always the high-voltage side: magnetron, diode or capacitor. It needs an engineer with discharge tools; please do not open the case.
Do you repair built-in microwaves?
Yes, including built-in and combination models. Tell us the model when you call 17718 so we bring the right parts.
Are microwave repairs covered by warranty?
Yes, with the part number and period printed on your invoice. Contact White Whale customer service on 15607 for any follow-up.
How much will it cost?
The inspection fee is quoted at booking and the repair price is confirmed after diagnosis, before any work starts.
Can the repair be done at home?
Most microwave work is completed at your home in a single visit.
