My microwave started tripping the breaker
Yes, it started tripping the breaker and at the end it wouldn't work at all, I started checking continuity on all door switches everything checked good, then I proceeded to check the thermostats and found out that one didnt have continuity so I replaced it. Every thing works good except that as soon as I pluged the microwave to the outlet the exhaust fan comes on and does not shut off. Does anyone known why or do I need to change something else.
Thanks

Ok. Surprised I was sent a damaged part. Box was intact but the aluminum frame was bent. Looks like I received a factory reject. I was able to make it fit

The microwave quit working, yet it had power to the plug.
I took the microwave off the wall and unplugged it, then removed the covering. Then I plugged it back in and took voltage readings at the cord terminal lugs. Then I tested the voltage after the fuse and at every point , following the wire. When I got to the upper heat sensor, which is mounted above the oven cavity, I found that the voltage readings stopped. Also, the wiring sleeve was burnt. I removed the part, then ordered it on line. After re-assembly, it worked. Nice.
