A microwave leak detector actually detects microwave electromagnetic energy. There are a number of different types, and it might be best to touch on them before finishing up.
One way to divide microwave leak detectors is by the "quality" of the insturment. There are a number of "cheapie" units that will give an indication of leakage, and then there are the really expensive survey meters that cost hundreds of dollars and should be calibrated at least annually. Both respond to microwave energy, and you can see where this is going.
If you suspect a leak in an oven, it is best to call and ask about a "professional" checkup. It's cheaper to take a machine in than to have someone come by, but for builtin units, you don't have much choice. Make a call and ask a few questions to see what can be done and for how much.

What does an ultrasonic leak detector do?
Ultrasonic leak detectors, are also referred to as acoustic gas leak detection systems. They are designed to detect gas leakage at outside facilities.
What is a microwave leak detector used for?
In general, a microwave leak detector is an electronic device used on microwave ovens to check for leaks around the door seal. The device "looks for" microwave energy that might be getting past the seals. There are a number of different types ranging from "cheapie" meters to "survey units" that cost hundreds of dollars and should be calibrated yearly.

What is A microwave leak detector?
A portable handheld radio receiver operating in the microwave band, that when it detects microwave RF above a certain strength it gives some form of warning signal. This warning may be audible, visual, or be shown on the face of a meter.

What is the best way to diagnose and repair an AC leak in a 1997 Infinity I30t?
There are 2 , common, ways to detect leaks. An electronic leak detector and dye. Sometimes both are needed. Of course the system has to be full of freon to for the dye to leak out or for an electronic detector to find a leak (just like finding an air leak in a tire). If the leak is at a connection, you may be able to just replace O rings, if a component (Like the compressor, condensor, evaporator) is leaking it will need replaced. If the system has freon in it, the law says to recover it with a recovery machine. There are 2 , common, ways to detect leaks. An electronic leak detector and dye. Sometimes both are needed.
