My microwave runs for about 6 seconds, then stops... asks for time, date, etc. After entering all that in, it appears to be fine. If I try to run it, it goes again for about 5-6 seconds, stops, the display is scrambled and it asks again for time, date, etc.

From researching online, I have come to the conclusion that the main board might need replacing. I am hoping to confirm this with some expert help. :)

Also... does the unit need to come off the wall to get to the replacement of that board... if needed?

I'm pretty handy, so I am up for a challenge if necessary.

Thanks in advance for any info.

:eek:

You were absolutely correct! Thanks! I will order a new Magnetron.

I looked at the part on the schematic, and it is hard to tell exactly where it is. Something similar is seated behind the top of the fan blade. I'm guessing the unit will need to be removed to access it, as I didn't see anything directly behind the control panel that resembled the Magnetron.

Thanks again... :)
