Joel,It ''MAY'' be the HV cap,but first I would check or replace your door
switches.Also if this unit has a cavity filter,normally located inside the
oven's side panel,check it for an arc mark or discoloration.They can be
easily replaced.Most parts suppliers carry it by the sheet & cut it to your
required size.............
