Emerson MW8102SS 1100 Watts Microwave Oven

Emerson Microwave MW8115SS (by 7 users)

posted by tkaye on Apr 22, 2007


I have only had this microwave about 9-10 months. All of a sudden when I tried to heat up something--I press the cook time and enter it, then hit start. The light comes on inside the oven and the clock counts down the time - but the oven is not working. The turn table is not turning, and the fan/motor is not working. Nothing has happen to this oven. I only use it about once a day--nothing metal, or incorrect is ever been used in this oven. What happened?

Yeah, same thing here, only I've had it for almost 3 years now. Bought it at Wal-Mart. Great oven until now. Any suggestions?

OMG this is exactly what just happened to ours!!! If anyone has a solution we would be grateful because we don't want to have to buy a new one yet!

My Emerson Model MW 8115SS, shut off and refuse to restart, unit doesn't light up, there isn't nothing working.

Same problem - timers goes, but oven doesn't turn on, but only sometimes. If you keep opening and shutting door, pulling plug, etc. you can get it to go.

First of all, since it's under warranty, I would call Emerson or a local servicer who repairs Emerson microwaves under warranty.

You probably have a defective door switch or broken door switch mount.

My m-i-l gave me hers to fix. Said turntable wasn't working and making noise. Pulled motor (nicely engineered stamping for motor extraction) and motor is basically locked up. Searching for replacement now.
