How do I fix microwave that randomly shuts off

SOURCE: Shuts down after 59 sec

It was the damper motor. $10 part fixed it. Thanks

Hopefully the hood / vent fan was always on when boiling on the stove top.

Otherwise moisture can get into and damage the keypad or control circuit board.

That may be the problem.

If this is a convection model, it may have a bad thermistor (not to be confused with a thermostat).

The full model has three more digits, in case you need more help and want to post that.

If you or a friend decide to look into it, we have *critical* safety, disassembly, and troubleshooting info at our site, and our link is at our listing here on FixYa: http://tinyurl.com/yzjozk

You can usually find an exploded view by entering your full model number here: http://www3.sears.com (the 3 is correct)

SOURCE: Disabling the beep on a Kenmore microwave

I have Kenmore microwave model 721.61820100.
It has an "Option" button. Press it. The display say "NUMBER"
Then press "1". The display should say "SOUND" and then "OFF".
Press "Start" and that beast turns silent, well not really, but the beeps are goooone.

If for some reason you don't like it this way repeat the sequence and the sound this time will turn "ON".
