Microwave when door is shut is turning on by itself without me asking
My Kenmore under cabinet microwave is not working properly. I reset clock and when I shut door I hear a humming noise? I put a glass full of water in it and after 10 seconds or so I open door and water is boiling? I never turned on microwave but when I shut door seems to run automatic? I had to unplug it for safety reasons
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Hi @mycatginger ,
What is the model number of the microwave?
Is the turntable rotating and the light and fan also coming on 'automatically' as well or just the humming noise?

Hi Jayeff, turntable, light and fan not coming on when I shut door. It starts up by itself. I hear this steady humming noise. Model 85600 or 592.85600-0. It was made in 2007. It was bought at Sears in Canada. My guess is the control pad is no good or the control board. If one of these two not sure if worth to fix because I believe these parts are expensive. I would appreciate any help. Thanks

It was built in 2008 not 2007. Sorry.

How would I check to see if the control board and or the control touch pad is bad?

Thanks jayeff for getting back to me. What you say makes sense. I would agree with you it's in the control board. I'm not sure if there is a relay to provide power to the magnetron . As there is no schematics to be found. I know it was built in 2008? Maybe it's time to retire this one. Just curious would you know roughly what the cost would be for the control board had I needed to change it? In Canadian dollars please? I'm guessing around $150??
