Thanks for the tip about not opening the microwave!

The MW makes a humming/vibration sound while it's operating. Sounds exactly like it always has.

Used a little shredded cheese on a plate as a test. :-)

So, as others have mentioned there is also usually an in line fuse that will cut power. Usually that will kill the whole unit though. You may be able to see it, usually through some vents above the control. Sometimes they aren't clear glass though and can't tell if it's blown without testing. Generally you can get to that without getting too close to the high voltage capacitor but do be very mindful.
