Microwave suddenly went dead

We are camping and microwave suddenly went dead. Everything else works perfectly and I flipped the breaker which wasn’t tripped
Is there another fuse between progressive 20 amp breaker and microwave
If so, where is fuse and how do you access.

I have an Isata 5 and the cabinet above the Microwave has the plugin for the Microwave- maybe the plug came out?

Just a guess.

Hope someone suggests a fix.



We took our first trip last week and microwave didn't heat. Lights, turntable, timer everything worked it just wouldn't heat anything.

The fix in this particular case was to plug it in its outlet. See above posts.

Believe your microwave is "toast" and not worth fixing. If yours is a built-in unit, about the only unit available with the surround trim is Greystone. I found ours on Ebay for around $110. Fit in perfect with a cord and plug that went to a receptacle inside an upper cabinet.

From what I read in post #4, I came to the conclusion that plugging it in solved the problem.

I figured it was toast, everything works except it want heat. Will have it replaced when we take it in for the rest of the items are fixed or replaced under warranty.

lol...valiant effort Mr. Dan, but if they are not reading the solution, they're also likely not reading your post directing them to the solution. Maybe we need more flashing light/cat videos to guide them.
