My microphone isn't transmitting sound at all anymore and it was working a minute ago. I saw some white paper around the wires and I thought it was messing up the wires so I removed that, still the same problem, I think that the plastic melted from the heat though but I can't say its true. Is the wire completely dead, I don't feel any electricity and there's no sound even on the taps of the microphone

The high-voltage transformer (or inverter transformer) has probably failed.

Due to the lethal voltages used and produced, I do not recommend that an inexperienced person work on these.

I would recommend that you contact your nearest Panasonic-authorized servicer.

We weren't able to find a "Reset" button anywhere on the fridge, so I turned it off, unplugged it, waited 24 hours, and plugged it back in. The lights came on and I, then, turned it back on. It's working fine and keeping ice cubes frozen. Whew! That was a relief!

Thanx for your website.

SOURCE: What would cause white residue on plastic?

With the reformulation of detergents, it's becoming a common problem. You can try a liquid with water softener in it, and slightly hotter water. It might help. The environmentalists have made the manufacturers reformulate a lot of cleaning products to the point that, vinegar and water is almost as good as the newer detergents.

I printed out the instructions for your thermostat. It looks like you should have the following.

There should be jumper wire between Rh & Rc

Red wire to Rh or Rc whichever is easier since there is a jumper. This is the hot wire and all the thermostat does is connect to route it to the components needed for heating or cooling.

Blue wire, tape it up and don't use it. There is no spot on this thermostat for it. It is only used on thermostats that are powered by the transformer.

White wire to W. Powers the heat relay

Yellow wire to Y. Powers the cooling contactor

Green wire to G. Powers the indoor fan relay

There is a black jumper on the back of the face plate. Look at section 2.4 Setting J2 Jumper in the installation instructions. Make sure you have it in the right position for what you have. If you don't have them just google them.

Hope this helps.

Hello,Yes there is a 3 amp blade fuse(same as in a car) in the blower unit,take off the door and it is plugged in to the(curcuit) board.Pull it out and slip a new one in.That will restore the control voltage.Your repair sounds correct.Some times there is a tiny button on the transformer itself (square box) that pops up instead of a fuse just push that in to reset it(if applys).
