Re: Lighted LCD microwave display is intermittent

Main reason the recommendation regarding obtaining the complete controller from SHARP is the fact that even tough you may be a totally experienced EE and very capable of engineering a complete operational product, once you determine that indeed it is not just a flippin poor connection, that you may need a descrete device that SHARP will not provide.
Then you are again going to ask the same question, how do I fix this?/ Not to be flippant, Sam gives you a whole lot of very good advice, and obviously you know absolutely everything about engineering electronic devices.
So, Have at it!! Enjoy!! When done and totally frustrated, go but another complete microwave, they are cheap especially for someone of an E/E salary, Right?/


Oh for gawd's sake. What's the point in the above? The guy wants to fix his microwave. His reasons are his own. He asked for help, not derision. There are others here willing to give it to him. Obviously if he's unsuccessful, he'll either live with the problem--as he has been doing--or he'll get a new one...or perhaps he'll totally destroy it.

Or, he'll fix it and keep it out of the waste stream for a while longer.

What was your point, again? Do you have one, or are you just a troll?
