Hello... We have a GE over-range microwave oven model, Spacemaker XL1800.
When we open the door to put food into it, the light and fan and turntable all turn on, as though it were operating. My Guess is, the interlock prevents the HV circuit from activating. Even if this is the case, this is still a problem.
I read online, the interlock switch may be the problem?
yes dump it ,,,me thinks you know a bit about this? but its far to pricy to repair it and if you try to fix it yourself its just as likley to kill you dead!,
trust me on this one!
inside that microwave there is a big capacitor that holds 1000;'s of volts its a real killer,,
have you ever seen a stun gun working,,, well that capacitor is its very big brother,, but it dont stun you,, it kills you,, out right!!! now, whats your life worth?
do you still wont to take a chance?
bump it play safe buy a new microwave and up grade it at the same time there very cheep now to buy
