An M611S has no electronics worth speaking of – a clockwork timer, a power selector and a set of door switches. Diagnosis is entirely by direct testing, and the parts that fail are mechanical. What does need saying about a microwave of this age is that door seal integrity matters: a unit with a damaged door or a worn hinge should be checked rather than assumed safe because it still heats.
