Emerson Microwave MW8119SB not turning on

Goto Sears parts or parts town to order

First of try to disconnect it, wait for a minute, then re-power it. After internal tests it's supposed to come up with initial settings (like time/date etc.)

Try unplugging it, to see if it will reset.

You have a defective magnetron or blown fuse supplying power to magnetron.

Replace the fuse with a ceramic fuse from Home depot! costs less than $3 and it will fix the problem. I had all the same problems as everyone else, you name it my microwave had it! you must remember replace it with a ceramic fuse! not a glass one. I know people say its the switchboard and all that nonsence but I promise you, the fuse plays a majoe roll in the microwave not working properly. Even though it doesnt look broken, a junky fuse can cause your appliance to do very strange things. I replaced mine 6 months ago and it works like its fresh out of the box.

Did it make a popping noise, like a .22 cal pistol? Probably one of the larger capacitors on the power supply blew up.

The first thing I would suggest is a hard reset. Unplug the unit for a minute or so. Then plug it back in, set the clock and try again.

If you still have trouble, since it's less than one year old, it should be fully covered under warranty. I'd suggest contacting the manufacturer to get it fixed free.

It should have a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

It's probably a bad door switch or door switch mount.
