Moved oven. Keypad can not set time. Amana RRL 9TC

I unplugged and moved our countertop Amana RRL 9TC to another counter and plugged it back in but now I can't set the time with the keypad. Reset just flashes the dashes. One key flashes when pushed but rarely do others. The RandarRange level button in the center near the bottom makes all of the icons and digits illuminate on the display contstant until pushed again. Light button works.

After so many years, the electrolytic filter capacitors dry out and these become more susceptible to disruptions and glitches.

The first thing I would suggest is a hard reset. Unplug the unit for a minute or so. Then plug it back in, set the clock and try again.

If that doesn't work, I would say your control unit (called the "net module") needs to be repaired or replaced.

If this item is available anywhere, it may take several weeks to get and will likely run well over $150.00.

If you decide to look for parts, the proper model number format is RRL-9TC and it also has one of four manufacturer numbers on its tag: P7553302M, P7553303M, P7553304M, or P7553306M.

Be sure to have both numbers handy.

The original part numbers for the net module seem to have been R0163049 and then R163079A.

Good luck.

My amana microwave reads se and fan runs on its own. the keypad will not repsond at all. When unplugged for day then plugged back in works for few times then backl to same thing. Cant afford to replace it....

"SE" error means you have a shorted membrane keypad.

You have a shorting membrane keypad. If and when an oven is coming on or doing anything by itself, this is very dangerous and can result in a fire.

So until it is repaired, please leave it unplugged or leave the door open when it's not in use, and of course one should never leave a microwave unattended while cooking.

In most cases, it's economical to repair this problem, and many DIYers can do it.

But we would need your full model number form the tag in or on the unit to steer you further.

Please make a new post or contact me directly with your full model number.

Amana radarange built in...read out asks for PM or AM but keypad will not work

The first thing I would suggest is a hard reset. Unplug the unit for a minute or so. Then plug it back in, set the clock and try again.

If that doesn't work, leave it unplugged for about 5 minutes.

Otherwise, you may have a bad keypad.

Note your full model from the tag on the unit and check here for more information.

Key pad lockout and load beeps

F3 on a GE / Hotpoint microwave means you have a shorted membrane keypad.

Since it's a basic counter top microwave, this may not be worth repair when you consider the cost of a new comparable unit.

If you (or someone you know) might want to replace it yourself, I have uploaded a handy guide with pictures showing you what's typically involved.

The part number of your keypad is
WB27X10624 and you can get it here for $51.37 plus shipping.

Good luck!

Light went out in Amana Radarange Microwave.

If there's no obvious removable cover over the bulb (and the owner's manual doesn't address it) some disassembly will be required.

Always unplug a microwave before removing or installing any bulbs.

The screws you need to remove should be pretty obvious, but a special driver (such as a T20H type or GTXH20-100) may be needed.

Be sure to put all the screws back in the right holes, since some may be special grounding screws.

Bulbs can be had in most grocery stores, hardware stores, home improvement centers, and big box or department stores.

Display panel reads "RESET" and keypad doesn't work

I believe I answered this, so pardon me if this is a dupe. It sounds like a problem on the control board. If it was stored in an unheated garage, shed, or other building, it could have some condensation deposits which could cuase corrosion on the circuit board. We repair these control panel assemblies nationwide for $32.50 and you can find out more through my listing here on FixYa: http://tinyurl.com/yzjozk If you have not tested and cleaned the keypad strip where it goes into the board, post back or e-mail me and I can give you instructions on that.
