« on: July 25, 2015, 08:31:21 AM »
Hiya A ll/sh,

Suspect its an inverter type which are a lot more complicated than the mains transformer/EHT rectifier/capacitor power supply versions.

Which make/model is it? Do you have a decent multimeter and I will try to  help ? Be careful of the high voltage  capacitor you can get a a nasty belt off it if it's not discharged properly.

Doh.... meant capacitor!

Thanks Ash... it's a Panasonic Dimension 4; a combined 1000W Micro + Conv Oven + Grill jobby.

Multimeter a Fluke 117.... good for most jobs about the house.

PM me if you can help rather than bore the forum.... I'll forward on my email address.

Many thanks,
Simon

No, you just trade the wife in for one who knows how to cook without a microwave
If it's got tits or wheels, it's hassle, if it's got both, RUN!!!

And while I think about it, she wouldn't be happy if you expected her to pay for one of your expensive tools if it got broken or lost would she? So why would she expect you to pay for hers?😯

Stop thinking Hairy, you know it achieves diddly squat  ;D ;D ;D. Anyways, I bet Mrs Lobo does pay for everything in the long run, in a roundabout way. ;)
