I had a similar experience. I found a microwave set out to the curb on my way home one evening almost 30 years ago. My intention was to drop it off the balcony onto the sidewalk below. My roommate asked if he could take a look at it, and within a few minutes, he replaced the defective fuse and had it working. Last time I checked, he was still using that microwave.
