I have a 12yo Sharp r-430cs microwave. The LED is not displaying all the "lights" in the numbers/alpha readouts. It is missing a lot more of the readout than it is showing. Everything else is working

Model r-430cs. 1100 Watts This is a 12-13 year old countertop model that, at that time, was approved by Sharp to be used as a built-in also. The LED "partially" went out about 3 years ago and we kept using the oven. Everything else on the unit works perfect. Thanks

Go to Sharp's website and check availability of the clock/timer readout board. Being that old you may not be successful, but it;s worth a try.

Not a complete answer, but may help describe problem: Our R-510B should be the same except for color, and for several years it has intermittently messed up its display. The left side two segments on the units digit won't light up. So a digit 8, without the two vertical bars on the left, comes out as a letter E reversed left to right. Any digit that uses the two left segments (traditionally labelled segments E and F when talking about 7-segment displays) comes out wrong. Every thing else works fine. I can't tell if this is your problem.
This is almost surely a bad contact at the interface between the LCD display panel and the PC board: Typically there is a "squishy" conductive strip that connects them, and I expect grease has gotten in there. If so careful disassembly and cleaning with a mild solvent should fix it. Since we can live with it, and it usually fixes itself in a few weeks, I have not got around to taking it apart.

My Sharp R1505 Microwave's LED display is malfunctioning, with only minimal lighting of digital/number segments. Do I need to replace the entire control board with a new LED attached or can I just replace...

You can order a new control unit (part number CPWBFB075MRU0 which comes with a display) from Encompass here.

Or you can get yours repaired for $39.95. Details here.

The led readout is not readable, the numbers are just partially lit

The control board needs replacing. The cost is usually 75 dollars and up just for the board. You can order it from your neighbourhood appliance parts store. Just give them: Manufacturer, Model, Serial no's.
Changing the board can take about an hour. It is an easilly replacable module.

Sharp Carose Microwave - Digital readout only shows part of numbers. How to replace and cost for part? R-1501 THANKS, Dave

Some other web sights said I should not go into the microwave to repalce the timer display. Additionally, it appeared the part may be relatively expensive. I decided to just live with it as it is.
Thanks,

The LCD Display on the Sharp R-230KK microwave has a problem. It is missing the readout for the center of the display so all numbers are unreadable

We repair these for $39.95, but a new oven of this model runs about twice that...

So if you or someone you know wants to clean the LCD glass, circuit board and rubber connector, that usually fixes it.

If not, then I would get a new LCD and rubber connector. The best place to order Sharp parts is Tritronics.

We have the service manual for this model and have uploaded it to our site here to help you.

You will need the free Acrobat Reader to view or print it in case you don't have it already.

Sharp microwave model R-510AK led screen only showing parts of numbers programed

This is a common problem. i havent completly solved it yet but this helps.


Be very careful doing this, There is Voltages with AMPERAGES high enough to boil your blood inside a microwave.

I had mine apart cleaning it. Only one number worked on my display. I wiggled and messed around with the wires in the back of the display. And almost every number in the display works again. Hope this helps.
