.....on Monday evening SWMBO threw (inadvertantly, I hasten to add) a mug of tea on to the kitchen floor via a cannon off the microwave. The floor tiles luckily survived, but the mug didn't, and the microwave was drenched in tea.
Tuesday morning, said device was as dead as a dodo. Quelle coincidence, says I, before she had chance to say "Nowt to do with me".
Anyway, checked fuse in plug, and all was OK. Removing the case, I checked the habitual "slow blow" fuse at the power input internally, and that was dead.
Two ordered for £1.99 off eBay arrived today. First was fitted and up came the microwave, heated up a cup of water placed in it, and then promptly died when the program finished and the door was opened.
It was now destined for thedump household waste recycling facility, but, with a second fuse and nothing to use it in, I thought I'd have another try.
This one has so far survived, so keep your fingers crossed.
(These slow-blow fuses are notoriously fickle, and I'm sure it had nothing to do with the internal part I just might not have secured properly the first time - no siree)
