How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the microwave before accessing the control area.
- Check outlet voltage: Ensure the outlet is providing stable power. Avoid using long extension cords.
- Power reset: Unplug for several minutes, then plug back in and observe the display.
- Internal inspection (advanced): Remove the outer cabinet and inspect the control board and display connections. Look for loose connectors or burned components.
- Next step: If the display remains dim or blank but the microwave operates, the display module or control board must be replaced. This is typically a board-level repair best handled by a technician.
