TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
When troubleshooting the microwave oven, it is helpful to follow the Sequence of Operation in performing the checks.
Many of the possible causes of trouble will require that a specific test be performed. These tests are given a procedure
letter which will be found in the “Test Procedure” section.
IMPORTANT: If the oven becomes inoperative because of a blown fuse F1 (F10A) in the 1st. interlock switch SW1 -
monitor switch SW3 - relay RY-2 circuit, check the 1st. interlock switch SW1, monitor switch SW3 and
relay RY-2 before replacing the fuse F1 (F10A).
