When you enter the time then hit START, does the turntable motor come on? If not, then I would suspect the secondary interlock switch, its mount, or its wiring. If so, then it's hard to say, unless there was some miswiring somewhere. The original problem sounded like just a classic bad door switch. At this point I suspect the wires on one of them may not have been reconnected exactly where they were. It does matter. I would suspect the secondary interlock switch, which MAY have white/white and grey/grey wires attached. Also, one of the switch mounts may have a broken tab that makes the switch move so it's not getting activated. At our site, we have the service manual for the R1830, which is similar to the R1480-series. We have that plus *critical* safety and disassembly info at our site, which is linked at our listing here on FixYa: http://tinyurl.com/yzjozk

SOURCE: No Heat

This is probably due to a bad door switch, most likely the top one. The microwave got hot because the cooling fan was not running. If you or a friend decide to work on it, we have *critical* safety, disassembly, and troubleshooting info (as well as a text file which helps in diagnosing and repairing door switch problems) at our site, which is linked at our listing here on FixYa: http://tinyurl.com/yzjozk You can find helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your model number here: http://www3.sears.com/

SOURCE: Sharp Covection Oven/Microwave stops after 1min on any setting

This 59-second stop failure is due to a problem in one of the damper-related components, most likely the switch, but it may also be the motor or the damper door.

The damper is a door inside that opens or closes depending on cooking mode. If the controller thinks that the door is not in the right position, it will shut down the cook cycle.

See the attached sample photo.

If you or someone you know wants to look into this, we have *critical* safety, disassembly, and troubleshooting info at our site, and our link is at our listing here on FixYa: http://tinyurl.com/yzjozk

We even have a video on our site that shows you how to safely & easily remove the control panel assembly to send it for service.

I have a R-9H20 Convection oven works fine but blows fuse (10A) after few seconds when microwave selected

Sounds like MW has failed. given the age of unit repair is not economically feasible. I would buy a new unit and forget it.

I do not know that could I bake cake in Panasonic NN-G335WF/MF

Hey, anything is possible! Even I have baked a cake in one. Use Panasonic's cook book, or something else from a wonderful author like Betty Crocker.

What is convection cookong

A convection microwave is a combination of a standard microwave oven and a convection oven. It allows food cooked in the convection microwave to be cooked quickly, yet come out browned or crisped as in a convection oven. However, most cakes cannot be baked in a microwave oven - only those without an open grain structure, such as brownies. There are microwaves which contain electric browning baking elements. A true convection microwave has a high velocity forced air fan to circulate the hot air uniformly.

Lg lmlv2055sb just stopped working

6 years may be the point where the repair could cost more than a new unit----Call a local shop to see what it costs to look at the unit and if possible get a ballpark estimate---then weigh repair versus replacement.

What time will i set forhalf kg. of cake on bajaj microwave

The time depends on the ingredients used on the cake as well as the power used by the microwave or convection. So it is important that this is checked or you will have a burnt cake.
On the other side you can start with a lower timing and power and then proceed after the cake is checked which might be safe.

You should be using convection mode first of all. It's not clear from your post if you are. Also looks like you're oven is baking at higher temperature than it says. Try 170 degrees for 13-14 mins instead.

I have an electrolux convection model. the manual does not have suffiencient information on how to bake a cake. could you please explain me the precedure interms of the power selection, time required,...

Firstly I would suggest contact Electrolux for more info.
But in general all cakes are baked and no microwave energies are used.
An oven timer is critical to avoid over-baking.
