First it was delivered very quickly. I hadn't even put my tools away used to disassemble the equipment before the new parts came (2 days). Then, I installed the new parts (capacitor and diode) and turned the microwave on with a load and it came on and heated the cup of liquid. I like fixing broken items like this! Thanks. Review: Fixed my aunts frigidaire microwave - My aunt has a frigidaire gmos1962afa microwave that the fuse had blown out causing it to loose all power. I replaced the fuse first, being the easiest thing to start with and while it got the power back on it, it quickly blew out again a couple of seconds after pressing the start button. I could tell it sounded like it struggled to get started like the capacitor was bad but I was not sure at the moment without testing it. I went ahead and got this one to have on hand for when I took it down to take it apart to check. Fortunately once it was all apart, the old capacitor did test bad and already having this one I was able to go ahead and change it. I got it all back together, installed another new fuse and it worked great again. So between this capacitor and a pack of fuses, I've got around $20 in it. Not bad to fix a $400 microwave. While this ended up being an involved project, it is a relatively easy fix. These capacitors can be very dangerous and should only be replaced by someone confident in these kind of repairs. ## Features - High Voltage Capacitor: 1.00 uF rated at 2100 V for compatible household microwave oven repair applications - Standard Connect Pins: 6.35 x 0.8 mm terminals fit 1/4 in standard connections, so check the original capacitor before ordering - Compact Replacement Size: Measures 2.1 x 1.3 x 3.31 in and weighs 4.8 oz for matching replacement installation - Dual Terminals: 2+2 terminal layout provides two terminals on each pole, with an integrated 10 Mohm resistor to help release stored charge - Service Check Required: Includes one high voltage microwave capacitor and should be installed only after power is disconnected and stored voltage is verified as discharged ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B087P2Y9T8 | | Best Sellers Rank | #496,366 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) #601 in Microwave Oven Replacement Parts | | Brand | METER STAR | | Brand Name | METER STAR | | Capacitance | 1 microfarad | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 130 Reviews | | Equivalent Series Resistance | 10 ohm | | Item Dimensions W x H | 2.1"W x 3.31"H | | Item Shape | Rectangular | | Manufacturer | Made In China | | Material | Aluminum, Ceramic, Plastic | | Material Type | Aluminum, Ceramic, Plastic | | Maximum Voltage | 2100 volts | | Mounting Type | Snap-In Mount | | Number of Items | 1 | | Operating Voltage | 2100 volts | | Shape | Rectangular | | UPC | 769891673266 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** METER STAR - **Capacitance:** 1 Microfarad - **Equivalent Series Resistance:** 10 Ohms - **Material:** Metal - **Shape:** Rectangular ## Images ![METER STAR Microwave Oven High Voltage Capacitor, 1.00 uF 2100 V, 2+2 Terminals, 1/4 in Connect Pins, Replacement Part - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81HBWGghBhL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: what is the length of this capacitor?** A: Including the connector Pin, the overall length is about 3.6inch (9cm) **Q: Does it work for Frigidaire lfmv164qfa?
