Sounds like the "start" button has worn out. Sorry to say the keyboard parts for this model are no longer available. Part number is AP4247481. If you or someone you know are very clever at fixing things you could probably put in a different press button (press to make switch) or even possibly fix the keypad, but these days the recommended answer is to get a new machine, sorry. Or find a used one. Note that the capacitor inside the case can hold enough charge to be hazardous to life under some circumstances so don't open it up if you don't know what not to touch! Not worth the risk. I wish you good luck finding one you like :)

It may be a failed high voltage diode, high voltage transformer, or magnetron, or just a bad relay on the control board.

Hello, I regularly repair Amana commercial microwave ovens.

• What is the FCC ID number from the tag?

• What is the Manufacturing number (like P76695, etc.)?

• Is it making any unusual noises?

• Is it running quieter or louder than usual?

I'd look for a defective relay or shorted triac on the control panel circuit board. Either could cause this problem. If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/david_29ad5d1dd86564b0

If you need to ask this sort of question, then I suggest you should not try to do it yourself. You will need a temperature controlled soldering iron, a way to remove the old solder (solder de-sucker), new solder and the right diode. It is very easy to damage a circuit board doing this so you need the right skills.

most shops will charge you 60 to 80 bucks (they get it upfront) just to look at it to see what's wrong , me id do a bit of research to see what a replacement would cost , then using that info make a informed decision on how much to spend on repairing it , you could use the 75/25 plan if it costs more than 75% of new to fix it , then id buy a new one what helps is that its a counter top model , they are easier to replace , as your not tied to a exact size as one would be in a built in model
