Re: OT: microwave oven blows fuse


 

Hi all,
As mentioned by Dave, fixing something is better then tossing and buying again. It's also good practice for us problem solvers!

On the issue of broken interlocks the wife here used to slam the microwave door all the time, at the time, parts were getable locally,so I did. Since then slamming is banned here! lol!
At the cottage the very nice microwave would start and die. Turns out the LSI IC on the PCB had tin flashed pins tarnished to black,after cleaning and cycling in the socket a few times, it's back to normal! Most fixes can be simple if we can recognize it!
Merry and safe Christmas to all!
Pete

Or easier approach is to get the whole interlock assembly. Good luck sir.Ben
