My LG microwave went completely dead. I is only 3

My LG microwave went completely dead. It is only 3 years old. The recommended repair service suggest just replacing the unit. Online I heard it could be a fuse problem. Where is the fuse in the model LMV1630ST?

    under neath the outer cover,its about 1" longX1/8" diameter and has a white body,hardware stores have them in 10-15-or20 amp versions called a ceramic fuse, get the right amperage,then if the new fuse blows it could bea h.v diode,h.v.capacitor, a locked up fan motor for the magnetron tube or the mag itself

Under the outer cover,its either a 10-15-or 20 amp ceramic safety fuse avail at most hardware stores, the amp rating is on the side of the fuse, if the new one blows then either the H.V. diode/capacitor or the magnetron can be suspects

LG Microwave Clicking and Flashing

Go for a warranty repair anyway. It may be the magnetron, and the clicking is the big condenser discharging.

Microwave stopped working

The main fuse in the microwave is probably open, causes are! door switch, magnetron, inverter board, "if 7 years old or less" and possibly the keypad control board. I recommend having it checked out.

LG Microwave ran empty for 20 minutes

I recommend you have a service man come in because it is more than a fuse, the keypad control board will need to be checked along with the rest of the system.

My JennAir went completely dead. It is probably 13 years old. Should I replace or have someone try to fix it?

Hello -

I cannot give you instruction on how to remove the kit(?) surrounding your microwave.

I can provide you with information which may help you decide if arranging for an repair technician authorized to service your JennAir microwave is the best option compared to replacing it. I refer you to the information from Angie's List:

Our LG microwave (LMA 1560SW?LMA1560SB) has a door that won't open. The open button will push in, but not release the door - the plastic button cover pops back out, but just the cover - not the whole...

Mine did this too. Also, at times when I would shut the door, the whole keypad would go dark and the clock would have to be reset. There were also times when I would push Start and it would do nothing. I'd have to unplug it so it would reset itself.
I used a screwdriver and forced the door open. Mine is about 2 years old and it's now dead. Biggest piece of junk I've purchased in years. Really ticked me off, no more LG products for me. I had a Toshiba that lasted me 22 years and the only thing that went bad on it was the light stopped working and the fan cover fell off.

LG Microwave Beeps 3 times, display shows F3 and keypad dead.

Since it's less than one year old, it would be fully covered under warranty.

I'd suggest returning it to the dealer or contacting the manufacturer to get it fixed free.

GE JVM1630BJ Microwave went completely dead with no power

Sounds like the bulb shorted, which is very common, and the first time it blew the fuse.

It sounds like when you put the new fuse in and tried it again, the bulb was still shorted, and this time it damaged the board.

We see (and repair) thisa lot. The problem is on the control panel, whichwe regularly repair nationwide by mail for $39.95 postpaid in about aweek.

Atour Web site, we have a videoavailable showing how to remove a typicalover the range control panel assembly in under 5 minutes.

This light failure oftenoccurs when a bulb goes out and the filamentshorts, or when the bulbs are removed or installed without firstunplugging the oven from the power line. Either can cause such afailure on the controller.

This can often alsoaffect the exhaust fan operation, too. The lights and fan can beinoperable or stuck on too.

Details of our serviceand critical safety information and disassembly information is at oursite, and our link is at ourlisting hereon FixYa.

Feel free to contact me directly (and please remind me of yourfull model number) for more information & help.

We'rehappy to help you with free advice and we'd appreciate yourthoughtful rating of our answer.
