My husband plugged in the microwave in one spot (and it worked), then unplugged it to move it somewhere else. When he plugged it in again, the microwave never turned on. No lights on the display, no sound, no light inside, nothing. He didn't hear a noise or smell a burning smell or anything like that. Do I have to get a new microwave?

Re:
Did he plug it back into the first spot?
Assuming so and assuming it still doesn't work, then I would say that you have a blown fuse. That can be caused by a loose fuse holder, misalignment or damage to the door, etc.
It may also have an open or tripped thermostat.
We have text files covering critical safety, disassembly, and door switches. You can find them via a search on Yahoo.com (not Google) for this:
microwave circuit repair
At this point the oven needs to be checked out a bit.
With these text files, and proper caution, it can be done pretty easily.

Could be the outlet that it is plugged in,turn the circuit breaker off,wait a few minutes,then try again ,or it is pulling to much power from the outlet,something else might be pulling from it,maybe try plugging it in somewhere else.
Unplug the unit for a
minute or so. Then plug it back in, set the clock and try again.
If that doesn't work,
leave it unplugged for about 5 minutes. If it still doesn't work, it may need repair, which can be done for $39.95 in most cases.
If it's doing that u may have a short in the cord somewhere I would try while plugged in next time u use it don't unplug it but next time it goes out move cord a little bit n see if it comes back on if so that's the problem r u getting bad connection somewhere try another outlet too
unplug your microwave; remove the top under the top you will see a small white cylinder
(a ceramic fuse) it looks like a glass fuse only made of white glass replace this they are sold at radio Shack
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.
Let us know if the hard reset does not fix it.
It may have an intermittently shorting keypad or another problem on the control panel, which we repair for customers nationwide with our guaranteed $39.95 service.
We're happy to help you with free advice and we'd appreciate your thoughtful rating of our answer.
Assuming the entire power line from the breaker to the microwave cord is okay, it's almost certainly a bad connection on the circuit board of the control panel assembly.
For reference, we repair these from all over the country for $32.50 postpaid.
