Spikes in line after power out can damage wierd parts...the microprocessor tells the fan to turn on when start is pressed...it sends a positive voltage to a transitor which saturates acting like a switch,,,I bet this transitor is shorted. good luck

Samsung Microwave Oven SMH7159 No Power
The power outage may have been accompanied with a power surge. That can happen with lightning strikes, or if a large inductor (electric motor or equivalent) happened to be on the same power line at the time of the outage. There's a good chance a surge took out the control panel.

Fan turned on and will not shut off.
Hey friend, thank you for your inquiry!
I see that the fan on your Frigidaire microwave will not shut off. I would suggest performing a reset on it and you can do that by disconnecting the power cord for at least ten minutes. If the reset does not help resolve your issue it could be a potential problem with your fan motor or control panel. We would recommend contacting a professional technician to come out and properly disassemble your microwave to pinpoint which component may need to be replaced. Hopefully this information is helpful to you. -Matt

My under cabinet microwave is not working correctly.
The possible reasons are: 1) The high voltage transformer is broken, 2) The magnetron is broken.

For the 2nd problem, the magnetron is broken with no microwave can be issued.

Check to see if circuit breaker is tripped in the electrical panel, or if it is connected to a ground fault outlet, it may have tripped. Sometimes there is one ground fault outlet serving others in series in the kitchen.

Usually if there was enough power to burn the traces then it usually will damage a few things. It's worth a try to fix the trace. If it works don't be too surprised if it fails later on.

My Ge microwave fan run all the time , i took the power off and put it back on but the fan keep runing even after hours of being off ? even the key pad option give me only high/low not off option?
There is a thermostat to turn the fan on if it senses a high heat condition on the stove. Sounds like this is stuck and did not reset.

Fan
The first thing to try is a "hard reset". Unplug it from the power line for a few minutes, plug it back in, set the clock, then try again.

Let us know if the hard reset doesn't fix it.
