Hi - Possibilities of the turntable not spinning are either it is turned off, damaged or the support itself is damaged as well. Confirm that the power supply is not faulty or defective. Contact a professional to move forward accurately.

Microwave Oven Basic Troubleshooting Tips

Probably a bad door switch. See this file.

Yes, there is usually a 2 amp fuse located on the inside near the where the electrical cord feeds into the power supply. There might also be another fuse as well, be sure to check all around the power supply to be sure that there is only one fuse.

Plugging your microwave into an extension cord that is not rated for its use, or plugging the microwave into an un-grounded electrical socket could cause that fuse to blow.

I hope that this information was helpful to you in any way.

Hello :

It could be a bad door switch or loose door switch mount . There are plastic mounts inside the microwave which hold the door switches and onto which the door latches lock when you close the door.

The screws on these mounts may be loose. If they get too loose, the switches will not be activated properly .

WARNING : A microwave oven is capable of giving you a serious electrical shock, even when it is unplugged. I strongly recommend you seek the assistance of an appliance repair technician when conducting any microwave oven repair .

good luck .

the lock on the door could be loose so the microwave light will turn on but it wont heat u should press on the door or buy a new one emai me at [email protected]
