Found microwave off other day; breaker was tripped, could not reset, until unplugged micro. Checked outlet, getting power, so that was not problem. Found lightbulb and fuse bad...replaced both...able to reset breaker; but now, microwave light stays on all the time, when you try to run the exhaust fan, microwave fan also comes on and runs the whole time. Only way to get them to turn off is to unplug microwave. What else has gone bad with this micro?

This is a very odd problem I would say the main board got damaged from the short. Microwave Repair Guide

Is it worth replacing that or is it time to get a new micro?

[FONT='Times New Roman']You didn’t post a model number so I don’t know the price but I would think it would think it is expensive.[/FONT]
