Hi.
Check if your microwave is plugged in to GFI outlet.
Plug it in to a regular one.
Post the results.
Simon.

Hi Simon. I've moved it to a non-GFI outlet and once again - when i opened the door to the microwave - it flipped the breaker.
If I close the door, turn the breaker back on, and use the microwave ... it works fine UNTIL i open the door again. (Which is each time I want to remove or add to the dish just cooked. :) )
