How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the microwave before any inspection. Never bypass fuses.

Step-by-step checks:

  • 1. Check outlet and breaker: Test the outlet with another device and reset the breaker or replace the fuse in your home panel if tripped.
  • 2. Inspect power cord: Look for visible damage, cuts, or burn marks on the Paderno microwave cord and plug.
  • 3. Access internal fuse: If comfortable, remove the outer cover and locate the main line fuse near the power entry or noise filter board.
  • 4. Test and replace fuse: Use a multimeter to check continuity. If blown, replace only with the exact same rating. If it blows again immediately, stop and call a technician.
  • 5. Inspect noise filter board: Look for burn marks or cracked components on the small board where the power cord connects.
