Hello...

I opened the chassis on this microwave oven and have a complete inside view, yet I cannot locate the fuse or fuse holder box to determine if the fuse, in fact, needs to be replaced. The panel states its a 15 amp fuse cat#WB27X7.. Can you help me locate the fuse panel or box?

thanks...

Thanks for helping me locate the fuse area for the Hotpoint microwave. I was able to replace the badly worn fuse with a new (15) amp buss type. I assembled its original condition.The oven did turn on upon first plugging it in, however, after initially doing a first test to start the microwave cycle it failed and the power shut down. I opened it up again and surely this time saw the new blown fuse. I did it a second time..just to be sure...and the same failure occured...Now I put in the last and 3rd 15amp fuse. I have set the clock and decided to leave it plugged but not start the microwave on timer. Hope you can give me a final clue to what happened and why it keeps shorting out...My patience at this level is about to expire also.

Thankyou..
Mark
