    SAME PROBLEM, MICROWAVE GOES ON BY ITSELF WHEN I TURN ON THE ELECTRICAL BREAKER ON THE PANEL. IT STARTS COOKING AT 3 MINUTES AND I CANT STOP IT OR DO ANYTHING (NONE OF THE BUTTONS WILL WORK) UNLESS I OPEN THE DOOR OR TURN OFF THE BREAKER.

GE Spacemaker XL 1800 turns on for 1 second and then resets. The display shows PRESS CLOCK.
Sounds like your losing power, have you tried it on a completely Different circuit??? Either that or bad fuse or connections inside of microwave.

Microwave has power, but nothing works.
The door switches are more than likely the problem, one or two will need to be replaced, I recommend a professional.

The touchpad does not respond and microwave won't function. Cannot re-set or adjust clock. Fan and lights work fine.

Power on lights etc push start button but it clicks and nothing happens
Hello :

This could happen because of bad door switch or a loose door mount .This is the main reason that microwaves not heat even if the other functions work fine .

Warning : A microwave is capable to give you a serious electrical shock even when it's unplugged , so I recommend you to call a repair technician for help .

good luck .

please rate !

R-209BK Sharp Microwave buttons inoperable
I had this problem too:
it turns out that it (apparently) just needed some 'warm-up' time!

After being plugged in for about 15 to 30 minutes,
the buttons suddenly "came to life"...

Note that when it's flashing 88:88 you are supposed to _start_ with the 'Stop/Clear' button. After that, set the clock (press "Clock", enter the time with the number pad, then press Clock again).

Hope that helps.

Plate won/t rotate no reheating
PLease open the housing of turn table motor at bottom of the oven and check for the AC input voltages on motor terminals as specified on sticker on motor. for no heating please check fuse between high voltage transformer and high voltage capacitor. Also check high voltage Diode and Magnetron.Please please don't try to measure voltage on terminals of magnetron.
