we have a frigidaire over the range microwave and were reheating something and it stopped working. now it doent cook. it will count down the timer and beep but the turntable doesnt turn and it doesnt cook. there are no error codes or anything like that. the control panel clicks when the buttons are pushed.
model: fmv156dcb
serial: 7g50400852

any suggestions???

Remove screws from control panel and tilt down. Turn on microwave and get it to cook. Check for 115 volts at the pc board relay feeding the high voltage transformer. If there is none, you will need to replace the control panel. If voltage, you may have a bad door interlock switch or flame sensor. Check schematic for the wiring to the high voltage transformer.

well i tried testing at the relay that had one red wire going to the transformer, and didnt get any reading, so i tested were the wires go into the transformer and didnt get a reading there either, (i hope i was doing it right) so i guess i need a new control panel. i suppose buying just the relay is out of the question? shouldnt this control panel last more than 1.5 years?

have the same problem. Mine is about 1.5 to 2 years old and it dont work. it lights up and the timer counts down but the turn table don't move and it wont cook

Same problem, a blown relay on control board.

[jennkent5454]

can you just replace the relay?

If the coil in the relay is good and no burn marks on relay, it's probably good, just other problems with control board.

i just replaced the control panel, and it still wont work. should i replace the door interlock switches? or flame sensor? are the door interlock switches the part that the door latches into? and were is the flame sensor? what does it look like?

it was the door switch. $20 did the trick.
