We had a magnetron die on our microwave. I saved it to repair it, buy a new magnetron, replace it.
But after saving it, and then looking at repairing it, we decide to just junk it. .
Not that it would be cheaper, but just too much of a hassle for the expense, $150 for the part, $100 + for the labor to repair. .
Resale value = $100 . . .
A loud fan would not be in a junk/replacement category, as the noise may or may not be the fan motor.
But if it is, then hopefully the repair cost is small
