I have an approximately 6 year old NEFF 1000W microwave that has gone faulty.
symptoms - LED display is working ok.
On all power settings, microwave turntable & fan start but I cant hear the magnetron firing up. After about 20 seconds, Microwave stops.
No beeps, no error codes. Just stops...

Hi folks,
I have a Tecumseh compressor (Type THB 1330 MKS) on a Hotpoint larder fridge. The start device is totally burnt out. Fell apart in my hands. :cry: The compressor windings all test ok, approximately 78 Ohms between pins, Infinite resistance to earth. So the motor seems ok. I...
PROBLEM SOLVED!!! :D :D :D
Inspection plan came up trumps. Starting from the room that seemed most suspect (Removing low energy lamp from ceiling pendant in that room reduced number of phantom RCD operations) I first removed the light switch. (RCD OFF of course). Carefully inspected the...
Thats the chappie! I 100% agree with your comments. I was also trained to think safety 1st!
I'm not looking for short cuts, they generally turnout to be costly de-tours. just sharing my pain in the hope /certainty that there are more knowledgable folk around who can help shed light (No pun...
:) I was trained on IEEE 11th edition in 1977! Found there was more cash in Telecoms than sparking, so didnt keep my trade certs up to date. Had the builders in two years ago. The electricain did the new bathroom electrics for me to Part p specs. He swapped the existing MCB on the switched side...
Haven't been in the loft to check - but know I must.
No sound of rodent activity, the walls of the house are solid (not cavity) and the roof was fully replaced and lined two years ago. So I dont recon on Micky mouse, but i could be wrong.
Thanks.
I'm thinking along the same lines. Plus, as the installation is Radial circuit, all hanging of a 1.5mm twin + earth cable from the CU, there is a distinct possibility that the insulation has been comprimised by the recent hot weather. But why then does the RCD only start tripping out...
Wylex 6A MCB/RCD fitted as part of a Part P installation. Working fine for two years. The upstairs lighting circuit is via a radial layout, not loop-in.
For past four days the RCD has been tripping out at random times during night hours. Frequently after all lights on the circuit have been...
My Neff's gone Naff! :cry:
First indication of there being anything wrong was that the short 30 minute program was still running after 90 minutes, and the time left to program end was incrementing, not decreasing.
On further inspection and test I discovered that the wash water is remaining...
Have just purchased above m/c, due for delivery next week. I understand from the retailer that the cold water feed needs to have a vertical connection due to the overfill protection device supplied with machine. My existing inlet is currently horizontal and close to mains sockets (Under...
Thanks Lecy, your description of the overload relay is bang on. I will apply your knowledge in the morning. (I don't fancy rummaging around in my garage for my multimeter @ Midnight! :lol: )
Just managed to disconnect the safety cut-out switch. The switch is burnt out on one contact, I would believe the motor to be seized except for the fact that it has run perfectly for a while this morning. i therefore suspect the safety cut-out switch to be the source of my problems. Anyone know...
Just managed to remove main electrical terminal cover. Was going to test voltage from thermostat. Switched power on and compressor motor started. Turned power off, checked all spade connectors were secure and restored power. Motor or solenoid heard to hum but motor did not start. After a few...
