Hi Donald.
Firstly, if your microwave is a domestic model it will only have one magnetron. Now for a test you can do. Put some water in a coffee mug, and place it inside the microwave making careful note as to where the handle is. Run the oven for a few seconds, then open the door and check where the handle of the mug is now positioned. if the handle is in the same place, chances are your turntable motor has stopped working. If this is the case, then rotate your food manually two or three times while it's cooking. You should have even results this way. Hope this helps.
Cheers
Andrew

Hello,
I have recently noticed that when I am heating things in my microwave with
the rotating plate inside the food items seem to be cooking unevenly.  It is
not with every item.
Is there a test that a blind person can do to check if one of the magnotrons
has stopped working in my microwave.
Food does not take any longer to heat than before but just seems that a
plate of food to be hot on one side and warm on the other at times.
Any suggestions would be of assistance.
