motocat12 Posted June 18, 2017 Report Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) I bought an in box microwave a year ago at an auction. It would run but blew my breaker when the door was opened. It had a NO switch on the door interlock where a NC one should be. I swapped it with one from my old MW with a bad LCD. Two days ago it stopped heating. Nothing was burnt up, unplugged the replaced switch (1 of 3) and it heated again and still disabled cooking with the door open. now today it's not heating again.
