The Progressive EMS was only reading one leg. First they sent me new sensors, and that didn't work. Then they sent me a new circuit board. Now it is reading both leg1 and leg 2. Give them a call and they might be able to tell you what happened. I would kiss the microwave good-bye and get yourself an new one. I don't think they are "repairable"

Sound like you might have had a loose neutral,causes Up to 150volt to burn out the micro and clock. And I’d you didn’t have a separate ground the surge protector couldn’t stop it

Did you check the micro for a blown fuse . Takes a 20 amp ceramic fuse . It’s behind the touch control. Remove the upper grill and there is a screw at the top of the control,push up on it and it’ll hinge down . You should be able to see it and reach it with needle nose pliers.

No fuse behind upper grill. Just vent to outside

Do you take off the top grill by removing 4 screws?

I believe I can see the screw I the crack between the control and grill. Once you remove that screw push up and it’ll hinge down and you’ll see that fuse. I bet your service center didn’t touch it because most believe in throw it away and sell u a new one. A fuse is a dollar and fifty cents

Have you tried to find a YouTube video of replacing the fuse ? But I have seen the hood microwaves for $75 at Lowe’s

Thank you, dgsearcy55, but I don't see anything that looks like a fuse. Do you see it?

Found it. Checked fuse, it is not blown. I guess I will buy another microwave, which doesn't upset me, but since I do not know what blew this one, I don't know how to prevent it from happening again. Click image for larger version

Some times the power surge gets the copper trace on the back of the control board . If you feel like it take control board loose and look at the rear of the board near the transformer . I soldering gun and may be a small jumper where the trace was . I've fixed some from storms and power surges that way.

I checked the circuit board behind the control panel, pictured above, nothing lose or blown. It gets to a point where the time exerted in trying to fix this, exceeds the cost of a replacement. I have reached that point. I am still looking for the reason for the surge.

Thank you for your assistance.
