How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the microwave before moving or inspecting the cord.

User-level steps:

  • 1. Check plug fit: Ensure the plug fits snugly in the outlet and is not loose.
  • 2. Inspect cord: Look for damage or kinks in the power cord.
  • 3. Try another outlet: Plug into a different outlet to rule out a loose receptacle.
  • 4. Avoid wiggling: Do not move or wiggle the plug while the unit is operating.

If the clock continues to reset, the control board or internal power supply may be failing and should be serviced by a technician.
