PRECAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED BEFORE AND DURING SERVICING

TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

a. Do not operate or allow the oven to be operated with the door open.

b. Make the following safety checks on all ovens to be serviced before activating the magnetron or other microwave source, and make repairs as necessary:1. Interlock Operation2. Proper Door Closing3. Seal and Sealing Surfaces (Arcing, Wear

and Other Damage)4. Damage to or Loosening of Hinges and

Latches5. Evidence of Dropping or Abuse

c. Before turning on microwave power for any service test or inspection within the microwave generating compartments, check the magnetron, waveguide or transmission line, and cavity for proper alignment, integrity and connections.

d. Any defective or misadjusted components in the interlock, monitor, door seal, and microwave generation and transmission systems shall be repaired, replaced, or adjusted by procedures described in service manual before the oven is released to the owner.

e. A microwave leakage check to verify compliance with the Federal Performance Standard should be performed on each oven prior to release to the owner.

f. Do not attempt to operate the oven if the door glass is broken.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect power before servicing.

NOTE: These diagrams are not intended to show a complete circuit; they represent the position of switches during “DOOR OPEN” or “DOOR CLOSED” (continuity checks only).

Door Closed Door Open

TROUBLESHOOTINGDo not continue with the diagnostics of appliance if the household fuse is blown, a circuit breaker is tripped or if there is less than 120-volt power supply at the wall outlet.Complete the following steps before checking microwave oven circuitry:1. Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.2. Discharge high-voltage capacitor and disconnect white

wire from power transformer.

3. Check for loose wiring or incorrect wiring within microwave oven.

4. All testing must be done with an ohmmeter having a sensitivity of 20,000 ohms per volt DC or greater, and powered by at least a 9-volt battery.

5. All operational checks using microwave energy must be done with the microwave oven loaded with a minimum of 8 oz (250 mL) of water in a microwave safe container.

Touch Panel and Relay Control Board Tests

To access the test mode:1. Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.2. Open the microwave oven door.3. Press and hold STOP.

4. Plug in microwave oven or reconnect power.5. Release STOP and close microwave oven door.NOTE: When the door is closed, if the STOP key is pressed during this diagnostic routine, you will exit the test mode.

Test Mode Table

Microwave Oven Power Output Test1. Place 8 oz (250 mL) of lukewarm water in the center of the

microwave oven.2. Operate on HIGH power level for 2 minutes. Water should

be hot.

NOTE: If the water takes longer than 2 minutes to heat, this may indicate either the operating voltage is lower than 110 volts or there is a problem with the microwave oven.

Checking Inverters

Measure Oven Input Current

Connect an ammeter (Valhalla Scientific 2101 or equivalent recommended) to measure the input current of microwave oven when the power level is set to Level 10 at the touch panel.

If more than 0.5A:The 1200W inverter is probably OK. Check the magnetron. See Magnetron test in “Component Tests.”

If less than 0.5A:There is no input to the 1200W inverter. Check the following:1. Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.2. No AC voltage supply. Check relay control board and

wiring.3. No control signal. Check relay control board and wiring.

Check the 1200W Inverter

NOTE: Do not try to repair the inverter board, nor try to make any adjustments to the board.

Check wiring to 1200W inverter:1. Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.2. Visually inspect 4 connectors on the 1200W inverter

board, CN701, CN702, CN703, E701, to see whether there are signs of overheating or any signs of failure due to loose wires, bad crimping, etc.

Relay Board NOTE: Do not try to repair or make adjustments to the relay board.1. Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.2. Check wiring to relay board.3. Visually inspect P51, P52, P53, P54, P55, P56 and P57 to see whether there are signs

of overheating or any signs of failure due to loose wires, bad crimping, etc.
