It was our 1:50 AM during the second morning of the first road trip in the Winnebago, and we were on the way to the Grand Canyon. After taking turns falling asleep at the wheel, we decided to park at a rest stop and continue traveling in the morning. One fellow tripper loaded up Adult Swim, courtesy of 3G and the iPad. Another opened up our Siemens avantGarde Microwave and loaded in a Stouffer’s family-sized lasagna. While streaming entertainment anywhere you go is always a plus, the star of the traveling show that night was the piping hot meal that came hurtling out of the microwave. Fast food on the road saved a somewhat disappointing, abrupt ending to the day. The Siemens Microwave Repair Chittenango is a valuable part of modern cooking, which is why this article is centered around fixing common problems you may face when operating one.
1. I AM WORRIED BECAUSE THERE ARE SPARKS JUMPING AROUND IN MY MICROWAVE!
Sparks in the Siemens microwave oven with lift door, eh? It sounds pretty terrifying, and for good reason: A spark in the microwave delves into two dangerous subcategories of abnormal behavior. Fire hazard and electrical hazard are two conditions in which it becomes necessary to contact a professional at Siemens appliance repair Chittenango or local oven repair company. Since this is a DIY article, however, there are a couple of areas that merit a closer look in the event of sparks in the microwave. First, locate the internal cavity of the microwave and scour it for any food. Food particles that have spilled into the microwave from their original plates will continue to cook the next time the microwave is used. As such, sparks are effectively bits of leftover food bursting into flames. If the internal cavity is clean, other areas to look at include the stirrer and the high voltage diode.
2. MY MICROWAVE IS MAKING STRANGE SOUNDS!
Don’t let the slew of found-footage sub-genre of horror films trick you into thinking that your Siemens over the range microwave is possessed by malevolent forces! As an intricate piece of machinery with many moving parts, the microwave is prone to its share of noises. However, always be vigilant and check for abnormal noises such as scraping, grinding or crunching sounds, as the presence of such may necessitate the intervention of an appliance repair Chittenango. However, keep in mind that occasionally the remedy to the problem may be as simple as replacing a belt or lubing the motor. Perhaps the surface plate is incorrectly aligned with the turntable, causing a periodic clunking sound and jostling of the microwaved dish.
3. MY MICROWAVE’S TURNTABLE IS INACTIVE!
Part of the joy in microwaving dishes comes from watching them heat uniformly, in a graceful revolving ballet. Without your convection microwave repair Chittenango with ventilation hood and its constant spinning movement to provide equal cooking on both sides, you can easily end up with a delicious, fully cooked lasagna on one and and a frozen brick on the other. First, make sure that there is no debris trapped in the turntable guide. Any debris will set the guide off of the carousel and lead to uneven cooking. Other areas to check include the cooking tray, tray motor and guide bushing.
