My husband turned on the above stove light on the microwave, didn't work, he turned around to go to another light in the kitchen and there was a big bang from the microwave, big enough to really shake the glass plate off its sprocket inside the microwave. Ever since it has, just a guess about half the power, no light, no fan inside unit or out. It's about 1 1/2 years old. Any Ideas???
Thanks in advance, Pam

No Lights or Power, Unit seems Dead The voltage to the unit is good.Lights come on, but can not program unit, Touchpad dead Microwave Runs, but no Heat Turntable rotates, acts like it is heating but doesn't. This is the big one, many possibilities. Microwave Runs, Heats, but turntable does not move Microwave is arcing Microwave Vent Hood is not working Over The Range(OTR) Models. Microwave Stove Light not Working OTR models, light bulbs good. Microwave overheats and keeps turning off
If you know DMM then only you can fix it. Check magnetron continuity and the transformer continuity. Mostly magnetron blows up.
Danger microwave has 5000 volts in it
Thanks
Discharge capacitors
Mr. Muscle Kitchen cleaner will remove the smoke. It won't hurt the plastic. Just make sure to either wear rubber gloves or wash your hands soon after cleaning off the smoke residue. It will make the skin on your hands / fingers slick and then dry after your done. Let the cleaner sit for about a minute before trying to wipe off the smoke residue.
You may have shorting keypad or a problem on the control board.

We have a stove with no downdraft, and a microwave with a hood above it. It works just fine. I expect you could keep your downdraft and put a microwave without a hood above it, and that would also work. I don't think, however, you can buy an above the range mocrowave oven, that slides in on brackets, which will not have a hood.
Yes, There are fuses inside the keyboard panel. I would have to take a look at the manual for the specific model you have to identify the easiest way to check the fuse. Before you go that far check above the hood and see if you can locate the plug end of the microwave. Most installations have a dedicated receptacle above the exhaust vent and microwave. It is usually a space too small for good storage so most housewives store small items and cookbooks in this space. It is usually the culprit for a microwave suddenly going out without someone placing metal inside the oven and heating it. Heating a metal object or operating a microwave for an extended time will usually blow the fuse.
You'll need to provide the specific model number in order to get the part you need but here is a link to a company that should be able to get you what you need.. http://www.pcappliancerepair.com/whirlpool-parts.shtml
