Question about Emerson MW8107WA Microwave Oven

No power - Nothing happens

The microwave simple does not turn on. Nothing on the digital screen, no beeps on the key pad. The light does not come on when you open the door. Nothing. There has not been any power surges in the area and the unit worked fine yesterday with out anything that would suggest that it was going bad. ie; food not heating up normally, key pad not working. I took the top cover off to see if there was a reset button and did not find one. I found a fuse and there is power through the fuse. So I know that I am getting power though the back of the unit and the obvious fuse is working. I am fairly savy with simple electronics but when it comes to the mother board behing the key pad I get a little nervous. Thank you to anyone that is willing to help. Jeff

The microwave was working perfectly and just stopped. There is now power at all. The light don't display or the unit doesn't heat up. I tried replacing the fuse but this did not work either.

If you have power at the outlet and the internal fuse is okay, I would say you have a problem on the control board. We repair these nationwide for $32.50. Please see my profile for the Web address: http://tinyurl.com/yzjozk

Microwave was beeping a single beep once in awhile now nothing happens but the clock still works

A lot of the time when that happens the touch pad is bad and may have a colappsed air pocket on a pad. ( it makes the unit think you are pushing a pad ) The only way to fix it is to replace it (the touch panel) . Did you see any numbers coming up in the display. Like if the 3 pad was bad and making it beep it may have been showing a 3 in the display,. Always possible it could be a bad main board. But most commonly I have found it to be the touch panel. Try to unplug it and then plug it back in and try to set the clock. when you do, try each number pad and see if they all work. See if any feel different.

Screen says "locked" and nothing happens when you

The child lock has been enabled on the microwave. To disable the lock, press and hold 0 until the Locked message disappears from the screen. To set the Lock, press Stop/Clear (to clear the display) and then press and hold the 0 pad until the phrase Lock appears and you hear two beeps.

The manual for the microwave is available here: http://shared.whirlpoolcorp.com/product_literature/search_results.jsp?searchTerm=JMC8130DDS&siteCd=JA_EN_US&userType=Consumer . The direct link to the manual is http://www.kitchenaid.ca/assets/pdfs/literature/Use%20and%20Care%20Guide%20-%208112P218-60.pdf .

I hope this helps.

The panel may have a short or need to be tested for replacement. You should try and leave unplugged for 8 hours so power supply can fully drain power and reset microwave

Key panel (touch pad) shorted.

This code will occur if a shorted key panel is detected continuously over 60 seconds. Replace key panel (also called touch pad).

Microwave key pad stopped working

Okay, thank you for that.

You have a failed membrane keypad, but on this model, it is not available separately.

You would need to order the control panel assembly, part # WB56X10817, which you can get here for far less than GE charges.

It costs more than just a membrane would, but is much simpler to replace.

At our Web site, we have a video available showing how to remove a typical over the range control panel assembly in under 5 minutes.

Then you remove your circuit board from the old frame and install it in the new frame.
