It's amazing to me how things we buy now do not last. Our Samsung switches went bad after a year, but a microwave from the 1980's probably still runs great.

You the Mayn! Just solved mine, just replaced the fuse for $6. Saved $500+ to replace a new one. Thank you much, Sir. Salute!

Thank you for showing us the small things we can do for ourselves to save money. Your advice worked not only to sloving the problem, but saving me money as well.

Watched your video and I fixed my Samsung microwave that didn't heat. It was a switch. I'm 77 and never to old to learn something new. Arlene

It fixed our microwave!!! Thank you so much. We only spent a 6 point star screwdriver, $8 and the fuse for $8.

My guy, I've been having a shit day with things breaking left and right. Trying to fix my recently dead microwave and your video made me laugh. I ordered parts, microwave fix in progress, but making me laugh has helped enough. Thanks, dude!

Thanks for the video. Problem was the 250 volt 20 amp fuse. Bought one at Lowe's for $6.

Thanks, my problem was a door switch. Fixed in two days with a switch from Amazon!

Thank you. Got mine back up and running for the time being anyway. Had a burned out fuse but all my switches were fine. Time will tell. You saved me some money and the family thinks I’m a genius!

Rather fix our old 2009-2010 microwave, than buy a new one.

Love yours lil facts

You seem to have the same microwave and same issue as myself. Unfortunately my model and serial wore off with time would you happen to have that info

My microwave works but the power must have went out because the clock was flashing and when I go to reset the clock the power level button isn't responding. Do I need to take off the panel? I tried unplugging it and it still doesn't respond. It's only a year old with minimal use. Please help

Hey I tested mine and on of them beeps or lights up when the switch is open. Is it defective? I have three switches. It doesn’t beep when I press the red button. Is it supposed to be that way to let the circuit board know when the door is open?

I love your comment. "If anyone can do it, you can" yesiiiir

Mine stopped working for the final time. I've been able to jiggle the wires to get it to work, but now it just has the door/keys error code of c-do. Every time this code came on, was due to steam coming from stovetop. New boards are $130 and the microwave is already 5 years old, but looks new. Should I just get a new one? If I get a new one, I will get one where the vent automatically comes on.

How can I find the fuse # I have the same microwave won't turn on

If one of these was dropped during installation closes but shuts off instantly would that be cool fan issue? I assume

When testing the switches , how would you know if the switch is suppose to be always open or closed?

@sharpcarco

2 жыл бұрын

Well like I said I’m not a appliance repairman. But I have noticed the original switches only go on one way so if you look at the original switch and right before you go to install the other one you can look at the two and figure it out. Look at the sides of the switches that will tell you if it’s opened or closed but if you put the new switch on exactly the same way that the other switch was on you won’t really have to worry about it too much

@jonsnow1123

Жыл бұрын

Good question. As he noted, if you order the exact same numbered part, you should be fine, though stranger things have happened. My training would say order the schematic, or maybe it's online. Then, when you determine whether it's supposed to be Normally Open or Normally Closed, get your multimeter out. Touch the two leads with your probes. A Normally open should give you no indication on the meter if it's good. If it's bad, it will give you a Closed indication. Then again, it can fail open too! So toggle it and note that it completes a circuit in one state but not the other. For a Normally open, reverse the process.

Thank you for this. I am troubleshooting my dishwasher which is also a samsung, looks the same as yours. Did you ever figure out the dishwasher?

What type and size is that fuse you replaced on the circuit board? My microwave is completely dead as well. I had pushed the 30 second button to reheat and it immediately lost power. I checked the plug and the fuse box, they weren't the issue. It has now been unplugged for days and I want to get all the parts together before I try fixing it myself.

@sharpcarco

that sucks but what you want to do is look on the fuse and replace it. Amperage and size they vary from model to model. The rest of the parts are down in the description there’s a link to Amazon. The switches are pretty cheap and they’re very very handy to have for many other small appliances around the house they work in dozens if not hundreds of applications.

I’ll have to take a look I’m sorry I don’t know off the top of my head.

This morning mine started making a humming noise as if it was on. Few minutes later the display went out about twenty later the display was on again and making the humming sound. It would stop when we opened the door but resume once closed. Going to put some sheets in the washer and I'm smelling something sweet. Low and behold the microwave had warmed up a piece of cake we had in there and not only melted the Styrofoam plate but also the icing. Would this be a fix for that? Prior to today we had not one issue with our microwave

What is the part for the fuse?

hello, mine only heats with the fan activated,help please

I haven't opened mine as yet ,mine is a Samsung 42000 it's humming but won't heat ,

No my microwave was absolutely fine. After the repair it worked absolutely perfect But because I disconnected something that I did not show in the video that was unnecessary to disconnect and then connected it to the wrong location it Fried my transformer. In the video you see it working because luckily I hadn’t connected the wire yet that eventually destroyed my microwave for good….. This is a very solid repair and it certainly fixed mine if I wouldn’t of been messing with other things that I didn’t know about I would’ve been just fine this will surely fix yours and probably 99% of them out there if they’re not already messed with
