The clock works and can be reset to a different
Hello,
If a user sets up a microwave and turns it on, one would expect it to
heat the food in it. If it doesn't, it has probably developed an
electrical fault. If everything comes on when it is started, like the light in the cavity
and the fan (which one can hear running), and the timer counts down but
it doesn't heat, the problem is probably isolated to the high voltage
section of the oven.
9
Out of 10 Times when there is no heat and everything else works fine it
is the Magnetron. The other 1 from the 9/10 is the HV (High Voltage)
Diode that connects to the HV Capacitor.This is the cheaper fix of the
two with them being usually under $12. The Magnetron is rather high
ranging from approx. $50 and up.If you look on Ebay you generally can
find many replacement parts that are in good working order and save some
bucks.There are Magnetrons going for $18-25 on average and Diodes for
$3-12.If you have a rather loud HUM coming from your micro-it is then
generally the Magnetron.IF anyone does get inside their micro PLEASE
MAKE SURE TO GROUND OUT&DISCHARGE YOUR CAPACITOR Before doing
Anything! You can find the info to do it by searching on the web. There
is very much high voltage inside these EVEN AFTER you unplug it and can
hurt or kill, please note that.
Take care.

Hi,
You have a failed membrane keypad.
On this model, the keypad is not available as a separate part, so you would need to order a new control panel frame assembly, which comes with a new keypad already mounted on it.
In this case, you simply move your circuit board into the new frame.
That is a simple do-it-yourself job.

Whirlpool AKP 745 NB - just blink
It sounds like you are experiencing an issue with your Whirlpool AKP 745 NB oven. The fact that the oven is only blinking with an "auto" text suggests that there may be an issue with the electronic control panel.
A possible solution is to reset the oven by unplugging it from the power source for a few minutes, then plugging it back in. This can help to clear any temporary issues with the electronic control panel.
If the problem persists, you may want to check the user manual for any specific troubleshooting steps or contact the manufacturer for assistance.
Another possible solution to try is to reset the oven by pressing a certain combination of buttons on the control panel, as the manual suggests. If the problem still exists, it is advisable to contact the manufacturer or a professional technician for repair.
It's important to note that, electronic control issues can be caused by various problems, so it is best to refer to the user manual or contact the manufacturer for more specific troubleshooting steps and to get a more detailed diagnosis of the problem.

How do i get to the fuse on a Whirlpool microwave MH1170XSS
A bad fuse is one of the most common problems on microwaves, including Whirlpool ovens. Most modern microwaves use the same style of fuse which you can find at most appliance and electronics stores. The difficulty of replacing the fuse in a Whirlpool microwave can vary depending on whether you are working on a countertop microwave or a built-in. Knowing where to start can make the process much easier for either style of microwave.
Countertop Microwaves
Step 1
Unplug the microwave and let it sit for a few minutes before beginning repairs. Bring it to a clear area with enough room to work. Leave enough room to have access to it on all sides.
Step 2
Remove the Phillips screws from the outer shell of the microwave. The screws are located along the lower sides and around the edges of the back. Put the screws into a bucket or bowl to keep them together. Pull the shell away from the microwave, and set it to the side.
Step 3
Look for the fuse inside the exposed controls of the microwave. The fuse is located in a small receptacle with two wires running to it. Use a flat screwdriver to pry up from the bottom of the fuse. The fuse will pop out. Replace the fuse with a new one.
Built-in Microwaves
Step 1
Unplug the microwave, and let it sit for a few minutes before beginning repairs.
Step 2
Open the microwave door, and look for two Phillips screws along the left side of the control panel. Remove these screws. Lift up on the control panel, and tilt it outward. The control panel will rest on its hinges.
Step 3
Find the fuse receptacle within the control area. Is is usually located to the left or center of the cavity. You will see two wires that go to either end of a small, plastic receptacle. Use a flat screwdriver to pry up on the bottom of the fuse. The fuse will pop out. Replace the fuse with a new one.
