Probem with Belling BIM60 microwave

Hi, I have a built-in Belling BIM60 microwave. All was fine until yesterday, went to turn it on and there was just a single click and the light does not go out and it will not do a thing. I cannot find where it is plugged in so at the moment my only way of isolating it from the mains is to switch the mains circuit it is on off, which is the oven circuit incidentally. Once its been switched off at the mains and you turn the mains back on the light is still on and as before when you press start you just get a single click and then nothing.

Any suggestions?

My first instinct was to pull it out as I wanted to switch it off at the wall or unplug it, is it commonplace for the plug to be behind the microwave itself?

But then I am stumped as to how to pull it out, I cannot find an installation manual online or on the Belling website. Again any suggestions?

Thanks as always.

OK I have tracked down an installation manual direct from Belling, so that answers that aspect. Thanks in advance.

It sounds like there is a problem with one of the door switches (there are usually about 3). The most common problem with these is a broken plastic hook on the door catch. Microwave repairs, even just to the door, are not a DIY job so you are best to take out the appliance and take it to a repair shop. After any dismantling and re-assembly of the door you need to test for microwave leakage and you won't have the equipment for that.

Hi Thanks for the reply, yes am contemplating either bothering worth a repair man or new, seeing as they're not crazy money.
