Kitchen Aid Microwave Model KBMC140HSS03. All siystems go but when you push start nothiing happens, when you push cancel nothing happens. Repairman said it was the diaphragm and would cost $400 to r

All systems appears to be okay. Put in time to cook and then when you push start, nothing. Push cancel, nothing. Wait a minute or so and it go back to Opening Time in display. The start and cancel do not work. However, I can push popcorn, preset 3 minute button, and it will start up and work like it should. I was told by a repairman the "diaphragm" was no good and the cost would be $400 to repair. Any ideas?

SOURCE: display has a f2 code on it. whirlpool oven is model mh1150xm and less than 3 years old.

determined from whirlpool that the f2 display is from the control circuit board. the board's problem is intermittent and needs eventually replacing. not covered by warranty. determined that whirlpool has reduced the warranty for the electronic circuits in its appliances from 5 to 1 year. this is great for consumer confidence in whirlpool. have had trouble with 2 other new whirlpool appliances. probably will not buy another whirlpool appliance.

SOURCE: kenmore over the range microwave 721.67600 will not cook

One of two thing happened here...
1. most likely...One of the interlock switches has malfunctioned. Micro. will NOT opperate unless ALL switches are working properly for safety
2. possible...the start button on the touch pad has failed in the circuit.

Replace the fuse with a ceramic fuse from Home depot! costs less than $3 and it will fix the problem. I had all the same problems as everyone else, you name it my microwave had it! you must remember replace it with a ceramic fuse! not a glass one. I know people say its the switchboard and all that nonsence but I promise you, the fuse plays a majoe roll in the microwave not working properly. Even though it doesnt look broken, a junky fuse can cause your appliance to do very strange things. I replaced mine 6 months ago and it works like its fresh out of the box.

SOURCE: Tappan TMV151FS over range microwave starts to work and then dies

Never run the microwave without a load (something to heat)!!! That kills the microwave generating parts.

Sounds like a 'thermal' protect switch is activating after running. Make sure that (if the unit is mounted in a cabinet) that there is sufficient space around the unit for proper air flow and that nothing is blocking the vents. Try setting it on a counter top and heat something. If it works properly and doesn't shut off, the venting space is the problem. You may have to have the cabinet that it sits in redesigned for more clearance.

Your membrane keypad is shorting.

It comes as an assembly, so it's pretty easy to replace yourself. It is part number 4453420 and you can get it here for $235.33 plus shipping.

You can also find helpful exploded views at that link.

The picture below shows you how to unlock a typical membrane keypad connector.

The kitchen timer button does not work on my Kenmore circular wave microwave.

If it has membrane switches, you might have a bad switch. Or, you could have a bad connection between the touch panel and the circuit board. Or the circuit board itself could have a problem.

Kitchen aid microwave - push start button, clock counts down but microwave does not start

That would be a defective door switch. Help file here.

If I knew your exact model number I could tell you which one...

But it will be the upper or lower one, or its mount.

Microwave stopped working with no warning. They had a recall on this model and since they ordered two parts it has not worked right

Just had my Kitchen Aid Microwave KHMS155LSS burn up and bellow smoke.

Thankfully, I was close by, stopped the microwave, vented the smoke, turned off the circuit breaker and unplugged it. Still the smell of burned motor, burned plastic has me concerned. Did it get hot enough to cause problems behind the drywall? So far, I am keeping a "fire watch" to make sure nothing is smoldering.

The touchpad on my microwave has quit working.

possibly a stuck button which would mean a replacement pad, do the buttons bleep when you push them do some work and others dont its quite common normally its the start button or the cancel which goes(due to constant pushing) and it causes the error alternatively its a possible logic board fault which is far more expensive to replace!
