How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the microwave before any inspection.

  • Check outlet: Test the wall socket with another appliance to confirm power is available.
  • Inspect plug and cord: Look for cuts, burns, or kinks in the Princess microwave's power cord. Do not use if damaged.
  • Check household breaker: Ensure the circuit breaker or fuse for the kitchen outlet has not tripped or blown.
  • Internal fuse: If the outlet and cord are fine but the unit is dead, the internal fuse or line filter may have failed. Replacement requires opening the cabinet and should be done by a qualified technician.
