Potentialbuyer June 02, 2021 for Model Number JVM3160RF2SS When checking for continuity and when door is closed - so their buttons would not be pressed, should door switches WB24X10204 and WB24X10146 NOT beep? Similarly, when the door is open - so their buttons are pressed, should they beep to convey continuity? Both my door switches do not beep when their buttons have not been pressed and beep for continuity when their buttons are pressed.
1 Answer Potential Buyer, This will really depend on the switch. Some switches will be normally open which means that when the button is pushed there will be no continuity and there will be continuity when the button is pressed. Some are normally closed which would be the opposite of Normally open. The switches that you have, appear to be normally open switches and would have continuity when the button is pushed.

1 Answer Colin, You will want to check the door switches on the unit to make sure that the switches are good. If the switches check ok then look for any damaged wiring. These will be the most likely cause that would cause the microwave to pop the breaker. Read More...
