Now what???

January 5th, 2008 at 03:33 am

The microwave is trying to die. It has an error code that translates into short in the key panel. If we push the proper series of numbers, it will work for about 2 minutes, then its gone again.

I found the book and paperwork on it. It is a kenmore, 16 months old. Normally we don't have trouble with Kenmore, but first it was the icemaker in the fridge a couple months ago, now this. This one came from the Sears dent store, so there was no warrenty. But, we paid only around $50 for it and its a $200 microwave, so it could be worse.

Now, do I get another or wait awhile??? Meanwhile, we have tons of boyscout microwave popcorn.....Guess DH can take it to work to eat it.

    That sucks, you sure it isn't the breaker? Well I guess not since you have an error message

    I would keep gimping it along. Maybe a miracle will happen?? At least you can put in the code and get it to work for a short time.... Ugh!

    We tried 2 outlets. We left it uplugged overnight to see if it would reset-it didn't.
    Works for 2 minutes, quits, beeps, flashes f3 and locks up. Then we have to unplug it while hitting the stop key, replug it, reset the time, then cook for 2 more minutes. I think its dead.

    So, I will see how long we can go without it, and start saving up MYPOINTS for walmart. I wonder if they have Sears-because I also have a $35 gift card fro sears--I will have to check that out.
