Possible Causes
Loose mounting screws, Loose internal components (transformer, fan), Uneven countertop surface, Loose outer cabinet
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the microwave before tightening screws or opening the cabinet.
Step-by-step checks:
- 1. Level the unit: Ensure the microwave sits flat on a stable surface. Adjust feet if present.
- 2. Tighten exterior screws: Check and tighten screws on the outer cabinet and rear panel.
- 3. Internal inspection: Remove the cabinet and verify that the transformer, fan, and other large components are securely mounted.
After tightening, test again. If vibration persists, a failing motor or transformer may be the source and should be evaluated by a technician.
