What does it harm...

I'm gettin tired of buying new ones every four to six months. JC there are internal fuses in microwaves that you can check. however, the circuit board could also be fried and it will be cheaper to replace the unit rather than repair it in that case. Thanks folks. I've had the surge protectors. For some reason they work everywhere else but on the dang microwaves. I even tried a couple of expensive ones. I just bought another microwave so I'm going to take the old out to the workshop and take the cover off and look around. I was kinda worried about radiation but I figure, heck in the military I worked for awhile in an Atlas F missle silo and I'm still here. JC Maybe look into that circuit - outlet for grounding, house - panel grounding and a surge protector on the panel, If its only the microwave its likely that circuit wired wrong. |
