Is it worth having someone drive out to Mount Pleasant to fix my microwave?

For an over-the-range or built-in unit, often yes, since replacing it means removal and installation. For a countertop model, usually not. We will give you a straight answer when you call.

My Midland microwave's display went blank after a storm. What should I try?

Turn off its breaker or unplug it for a minute, then restore power. If it stays dark, an internal fuse or the control may have failed. We test both and quote before repairing.

Built-in microwaves after rural power trouble

Microwaves rely on electronic controls, and the surges that can follow a rural outage are hard on them. A microwave that shows a blank display, beeps but will not start, or runs without heating after a storm may have a blown internal fuse, a failed door switch or a damaged board. Over-the-range models in newer homes around Midland also run the vent fan and light, so a failure affects the whole cooking area.

Check the breaker, unplug the unit for a minute and try again. Clean the grease filters. Do not open the cabinet, since the high-voltage capacitor inside stays dangerous after unplugging. If the microwave is a countertop model, replacement is usually cheaper, and we will say so instead of booking a visit you do not need. For built-ins, we test the magnetron, switches, fuses and board and quote first.
