    No power for Furrion FMCM-BL (not the fuse)

    Hi, I love how everyone is so helpful on this site! I have read about issues with these or similar microwaves and did replace the fuse once. But now there is no power and the fuse is fine. Help! Thanks!

    The Microwave is a 1500Watt 120Volt AC powered unit. You need to check you AC breakers not the DC fuses.
    Do you have a volt meter??
    If yes, verify that you have 120V at the outlet used to power the microwave.
    if yes, then there is an issue with the microwave itself.
    if no, then check the AC breakers

    If no to the volt meter question:
    Plug a known good ac powered device into the micorwave outlet (yes, no: same as above)
    Plug the microwave into an extension cord, does it power up?
    Note: use the extension cord for testing only. Do not use it for long term use of the microwave.

    Thanks! I was able to pull the plug and check it. AC and breakers are fine. I do not have a voltmeter. Assume it is the microwave. Hoping that I could just replace the latches and switches to the door, but when this is the problem it will blow the fuse.

    I have this problem right now, blowing the fuse. In our case, It's not so much the plastic switch holder or the switches as it is the sagging door and ware on the door hooks that make the switches. The door hinges are held in place with rivets and they are loose. We'll try to make it last a little longer but eventually replace it with a better microwave.

    Ever get yours fixed or replaced?
