Full Compatibility List

This magnetron is the stock (factory-default) part for a wide range of both inverter and conventional transformer Panasonic microwave ovens.

It is a perfect drop-in replacement for the following models:

• GD Series (Grill/Convection): NN-GD371M, NN-GD382S, NN-GD391S, NN-GD392S

Symptoms That Your Microwave Needs a New Magnetron:

1. The appliance runs, rotates the glass turntable, and lights up, but fails to heat food at all.

2. When the heating cycle starts, you hear a loud humming, crackling, or sparking noise inside the cavity (frequently accompanied by a burnt mica sheet).

3. There is a distinct smell of burnt electrical insulation or plastic.

4. The microwave takes significantly longer to heat food than it used to (loss of cathode emission).

Why Choose This Specific Magnetron?

• 100% Genuine Part: factory-grade Panasonic quality. While modern generic copies often fail within 3 to 6 months, a genuine, tested OEM magnetron is built to last for years.

• Rigorous Multi-Point Inspection: every magnetron in our inventory (specifically this unit, Stock №22) is engineer-tested across 4 critical parameters:

  1. Magnet integrity (zero microcracks).

  2. Terminal-to-case insulation (feedthrough capacitors checked for shorts to the ground).

  3. Filament heater resistance loop.

  4. Antenna cap condition (no pitting or burns).

• Cost-Effective: the retail price of a brand-new OEM Panasonic magnetron can easily reach up to half the price of a brand-new microwave. Buying a certified, pre-owned original part is the smartest and most sustainable repair option.
