Viking Microwave Repair in Houses, Apartments and Rentals
We have no affiliation with Viking and are not one of its service centers. A microwave still covered by the Viking warranty belongs with Viking first. Once it's out of coverage, give us the model number and the symptom when you book so we can look into parts ahead of time.

How Viking builds its microwaves
Viking microwaves are usually built in: drawer-style units under the counter, or microwaves and convection microwaves set into a wall oven stack with a trim kit. Drawer models add a motorized opening mechanism, and a drawer that stalls, opens partway or will not close usually points to that mechanism, its gears, or an obstruction in the track. Door and drawer interlock switches are the most common cause of a unit that lights up but does not heat, and the magnetron, high-voltage diode or capacitor can fail too. Because microwaves store high voltage even when unplugged, the capacitor is discharged before any testing. Control panels and touchpads can also stop responding.
Parts that tend to fail on Viking microwaves
- Drawer mechanism stalling
- Interlock switch failing
- Magnetron not producing heat
- High-voltage diode shorted
- Touchpad not responding

Something else on your mind?
Reach out with the brand, the symptom and a model number if you have one. Some questions we can answer on the spot; the rest a technician can check in person.
Often. The drawer runs on a motor and gear mechanism along tracks. We check for obstructions, then test the motor, gears and switches before recommending parts.
The door interlock switches, the high-voltage diode, the capacitor and the magnetron are the usual suspects. We discharge the capacitor and test each part before replacing anything.
