Samsung microwave oven model #ME21K7010DS/AA

Judging from reviews of this model on Samsung's website, this is a common problem. Does it happen during or after using the cooktop or range below the microwave oven? In particular, is it most common when using the burner directly under the microwave oven control panel? If the issues are correlated to heat or humidity from cooking on the range top, I would suspect problems with moisture in the keypad circuitry. I would consider cleaning the controller board key panel connector area with 90%+ isopropyl alcohol (this is an internal service on a circuit board that is most likely susceptible to damage by static electricity, so it should be done by someone who knows how to service electronics). This should remove contaminants that could cause current leakage between keypad connections (spurious keypad entries) in humid conditions. Let the board dry thoroughly before reconnecting. It's also possible that moisture is getting into the keypad assembly. This would be a design/manufacturing flaw. I would guess the oven is out of warranty, so the fix would be to put the keypad in a dessicator for a day or so, then seal the edges with RTV Blue or a similar caulk that does not release acetic acid (vinegar) during the curing process. (Acetic acid even in vapor form may corrode the silver contact material in the keypad.) Do not seal the connector, just the edges of the flex ribbon layers where moisture can get into the key membranes. In the meantime, always use the microwave oven fan when cooking on the range. This will help to keep the controller cool and dry. (Samsung's troubleshooting guide says the fan will turn on automatically if the microwave oven gets too warm from cooking underneath it.)

Hi i have Samsung Model GE0103MB microwave and i took it for repairs and the bottom switch is not engaging

It sounds like you are having difficulty with the bottom switch on your Samsung Model GE0103MB microwave not engaging with the door release button. This can prevent the microwave from functioning properly and could be caused by a few different issues:

Make sure that the switch is properly connected to the door release button. The switch may have been installed incorrectly during the repair process, which could prevent it from engaging properly.
Check the door release button to ensure that it is not damaged or malfunctioning. The door release button could be preventing the switch from engaging properly.
Check the wiring connections to the switch and door release button to ensure that they are secure and not damaged.
If you are having difficulty assembling the microwave, I suggest you to try and get the service manual or a diagram of the assembly process for your specific model GE0103MB. You can try searching for it online or contacting Samsung customer service, as they may be able to provide you with the information you need.
If the problem persists, you may want to contact a qualified technician to service the microwave and inspect the door switch and door release button.

It's important to note that working on a microwave oven can be dangerous and should only be attempted by someone who is familiar with the inner workings of the device, and have the proper tools and equipment.

How do I disassemble the door on the Samsung smh9207st?

Couple of things that might help everyone... That front cover is most definitely held on with not just adhesive (which is pretty tough) but by ten (10) little fingers which go through to the plastic door panel it's mounted on and which have to be pried up before starting to remove the silver front trim piece. Note here that you will NOT be able to remove that front trim in reasonable shape, go ahead and plan on replacing it when you get the new touch panel and/or control panel. It's too thin and bendable to withstand what it will take to remove it. Also, the adhesive holding it on is a little known material designed by Ingen for the restraint of small to medium dinosaurs, so keep your putty knife handy for cutting through it. There's also a thin layer of silicone around the edges of that trim, but it pulls away pretty easy.After that you just pull the touch panel away from the framework. It's also glued on, but not strongly.EDIT: That front trim costs more than the replacement touch panel. So I'd recommend being as careful as possible with it and straightening out what damage is done when you remove it.

Panasonic Microwave Turn table rotates when door is open

Found this Panasonic post in the Samsung section!

If it moves just a tiny bit when the door opens and then stops, that's normal.

If it keeps running when the door is open, that's usually due to a bad door switch or broken / loose door switch mount.

If you or a friend decide to look into it, we have critical safety information, info on door switch diagnosis and replacement, and
disassembly information at our site, linked here on Fixya: http://tinyurl.com/yzjozk

I have a Samsung ME18H704SFS- overheating help.

It will be fine. They aren't made for sustained cooking on high power. Popcorn is dry but oiled, so it gets very hot and burns. You can use the glass carousel plate or replace it. Depending how big the crack is, any water in the crack will finish it off. A new glass tray is $57. A new Microwave the same is $319. Samsung are one of the better makes. https://www.google.com/search?q=samsung+me18h704sfs+replacement+glass+plate ..

How to replace humidity sensor for samsung microwave oven?

I thought I needed a sensor also ( and you might), but first try this. Remove keypad. Find ribbon connector near lower edge, Gently slide a plastic ball point pen between the 2 ribbons to gently separate them. They may feel glued together. I then used a Q-Tip with a drop of alcohol to swab between the ribbons. Then cut a small piece of paper, cardboard or plastic and slide between the separated ribbons. Re-install keypad. Problem with mine was the keypad was basically shorted out. The ribbon connectors being stuck together caused multiple errors like child lock and daylight savings errors. Hope this helps someone.
