Help from Microwave tech please.
2002 motorhome, presume the Sharp micro convection oven is the same age. There is 100,000 miles on the coach, we use the oven a lot.
Recently, when reheating tea, or melting cheese on toast, power on high, time set for 15 to 30 seconds. 4 times in the past three weeks there has been a loud BANG or CRACK like an arc and the oven proceeds to heat to the end of the timer, items are hot, no burning smell.
Not every time, just once in a while. Convection seems OK.
Ideas what is happening? I am in Mexico and not too sure if I want to take this into a local shop.
My CV as it were" ham radio operator (built first radio transmitter at the age of 11) worked for a year in Radio TV shop as apprentice, have very few tools: VOM, soldering iron etc
Physical disability--couldn't get it out by myself but probably could with help.
Recommendations: Wait and watch for smoke with fire extinguisher at hand/ (I was a Volunteer Firefighter for many years) :B
Or open it up if I can figure out how to get it out.
