One startling problem that can arise with microwaves is when they suddenly making a loud popping noise and stop working. The clock won’t light up, the buttons don’t make noise or light, and the microwave stops spinning if it’s in the middle of a cycle. That is a sure indication that something within the electrical workings of your microwave broke, and the first thing you’ll want to do is power off the microwave as soon as possible.
WARNING: Microwaves are high voltage products, with voltage going as high as 2000 volts. If you do not have any training on working on these products, we strongly urge you to call an appliance repair company near you. Be sure that you unplug the microwave before you start to work on the product.
