Had lightening strike near house and now microwave does not work properly. The fan runs by itself and the control panel is all green...no buttons are visable nor the time, etc. Any suggestions on what might be wrong?

You are welcome. I'm afraid I did not get clear which part did you replace: the control board (#21) or the control panel (#130) on the diagram? Gene.

It's a pretty good idea to protect it with a surge protector. You may also check with your electrician to see how much he'll charge you for a "Whole House" surge protection. In my area, a typical (up to 200 amp service) whole house is around $200.00. Not bad, when you start to compare that with a separate protector for your micro, computer, TV(s), Refrigerator, laundry equipment, etc.
