See this steps and fix it. God bless you

Reset the clock. Press "Clock" and the correct time, using the number pads. Press "AM/PM" if applicable, and press "Start" or "Clock" to confirm.


  • 2 Press "Timer On/Off" to reset the timer if nothing on the touch pad will operate. Use the number pads to select a new timed amount, if desired, and press "Timer On/Off" to start. Press again to cancel.
  • 3 Press and hold "Clear/Off" for three seconds if the timer will not function or is blinking when you touch the pads. This will release the "Child Lock" feature. Make a new touch pad selection.
  • 4 Disconnect power to the microwave if following Steps 1 through 3 does not resolve the blinking timer. Wait a few minutes, and then restore power to reset the microwave.

  • However if the problem persist the display board
    main control board is faulty

    SOURCE: Hi. our Sharp R242 Microwave

    I saw an answer for this problem on a justanswer.com blog, and although it's for a slightly different model than yours, it's the exact same problem and they mention what to try to fix it:
    http://www.justanswer.com/questions/2v2ff-my-microwave-flashes-8888-none-of-the-buttons-work-what
    This was my initial thought...that the display isn't receiving information and going into the error code, which would be because of a loose ribbon connector, which carries the signals needed for operation. When you take it apart, be careful not to touch the high voltage capacitors- you can discharge them with a screwdriver blade by shorting them out, or cover them with electrical tape, temporarily.
    Here's a web page that talks about how to check various microwave parts, and may be of help to identify the capacitor:

    Good luck, and hope this helps you get it fixed.

    SOURCE: Microwave Sharp carousel Model R3A36 keypad not working

    Your keypad has failed.

    It would need a new control panel frame, which comes with the keypad.

    You simply remove the circuit board and plug it into the new frame.

    It is part # FPNLCB070WRK0 and the best place to order Sharp parts is Tritronics.

    My ZVOX AccuVoice TV Speaker model AV155 just flashes 8888?

    Hold down the other settings button and see if you can perform a Master Reset. If you can't perform the reset, you'll have to seek their repair service.

    My Sharp R-240D microwave is flashing 88:88 on the clock. None of the buttons work. How do I get the touch panel to work?

    I'm not finding that as a valid US model.

    I would suggest checking the label again.

    Feel free to contact me directly for more help.

    Sharp carousel 8888 is flashing and I cannot remove it

    In case of unavailability of touch panel regarding any model of your microwave you can simply asked your repairman to install micro touch buttons (easily available and can be fixed) on the base of touch panel than repest the panel over it. It would work like the same.

    I have a Shapr Microwave Convection model R-8880(W) T which is flashing after being stored for 3 months. It won't work, the timing light just keeps flashing on andoff 88-888. Does it have a reset...

    Try pushing / stop reset first. The setting the time by pushing clock button .... punch in the time and push the clock button again. Just respond here if that does not work. 88-8888 is what you get after your first plug it in. Sometimes you will get PF if you unplug it and plug it back in. If that appears push stop / reset / clear. (Same button)

    Display only shows 8888 - display buttons do not work.

    try a reset. unplug for 10 mins, plug it back, see if it will work.

    if not , open the housing, see a ribbon cable from the touch pad to the main pc board. remove the ribbon cable for 1 min. re install it back and test the unit.

    be sure to return all cover and screws of the unit before plugging it back. microwaves are hazardous to your health.
