How can I get my microwave to actually heat when everything else (cook time, power level, clock, etc., are set and seem to be running?
Food does not heat at all no matter if I used a programmed cycle or express time according to food being nuked or time cook. It sounds like it's working, the turntable turns, the interior light works during the whole process and the warning bells sound at the appropriate stirring and end times, but the food remains as raw or as cold as when I put it in the oven! What's wrong? Can I fix it myself? Do I have a lemon?

Sounds like the MW Emitter is not working or the wave guide is disconnected. If it is the wave guide then you can fix it yourself if you take the rear cover off. It is the pipe, which in cross section is quite rectangle shaped with rounded corners. It should be connected to the emitter at one end and the opaque guide cover at the other with no breaks. If the emitter is faulty then seek professional help.
