Common Symptoms
- Timer will not advance.
- Clock/display does not display.
- Microwave light does not operate.
- Turntable does not operate.
- Buttons are unresponsive.
- Microwave shuts off after a few seconds.
Check Before Replacing
- Confirm the microwave has power and that the display, clock, and controls respond normally.
- Observe whether the reported failure is limited to one function (such as the light, turntable, or starting a cook cycle) or affects multiple controlled functions.
- Before condemning the board, have the appliance checked for other more commonly failed components; a control board is often misdiagnosed.
Pro Tip
Microwaves contain hazardous high-voltage components that can retain a dangerous charge even after unplugging. Do not access, test, or replace this internal control board unless qualified to service microwave ovens.
