    Mr. Miller:

    I thank you for taking time helping people. I used chopstick with cloth to remove some grease through the fins then plug LG LMV2053ST microwave oven to power, the display is back to normal. It heat food as normal but there are sound of sparks at top-front-right side of the unit from time to time. I will clean up some more. Can anyone show me how to open up that section so that I can clean it thoroughly? thanks.

Thermador SMW272 Microwave Power Outlet Burnt

That is a funny looking unit! You know we are Fixya and not Thermador right?

There must be too much heat back there and it is over heating the socket and the microwave lead which isn't heat resistant and normally only has its own heat to contend with.

What I would do is pull all that appliance out an put it on the other side to the kitchen, and ask a bigger electrical contractor to MOVE and REPLACE a pair of outlets in a kitchen for a remodel. What I would do is to certainly move the microwave outlet to the cupboard next door. Make a decision whether to move to 220 oven outlet as well. Don't mention anything about burning plugs or the 87 volts. Tell them you would like Industrial Quality Outlets and not domestic. I reckon that will fix the problem.

I have a old jenn air wall oven and a old jenn air microwave mounted on top. it was a countertop model. when i removed it it was plugged into the top of the oven. would that be a 110 appliance outlet?

The Jenn Air microwave that is mounted above the oven in your unit is 110v 60Hz. The socket in the upper rear right corner of the oven is a 110v 6Hz socket and is where the microwave would be plugged in. If you are going to replace the microwave, you can plug it into that socket. If you would rather not use that socket, you will have to drill a hole in the side of the cabinet holding the over/microwave to get the power cord out.

Microwave is 6 months old. clock won't light up. when i try to set cooking time the inside starts making a clicking sound and a light flashes in the top right inside

Sounds like the waveguide cover has been contaminated with food that has carbonised and burning.
Call a Whirlpool repair agent and get the waveguide cover replaced.
They need to be kept clean and leaving the door open after cooking helps to dry the moisture out in the cavity. Making it last longer.

Emerson Microwave stopped working

Have 1 of 2 choices, the main fuse or the control board for the front switches and clock. primary of the small power transformer has opened. Unplug the unit and take case off and measure the fuse with an ohm meter. if u read 1 ohm or less then fuse is good. then measure across the main power plug tips. If read open then the power transformer is bad. Need to replace the board as not sure if transformer is available.

I have a GE profile advantium oven. The oven seems to operate, however the green display is blank with a dash in the upper left corner. Cannot set clock or get any written information from the green...

The first thing to try is a "hard reset". Unplug it from the power line for a minute, plug it back in, set the clock, then try again.

Let us know if the hard reset doesn't fix it.
