Hello Tim. Yes, if there is no voltage at the socket, the board may be bad. Check the black wire at the socket to chasis ground and see if 120 volts is there. If so, the board is bad. Hope this helps.

Hello. You will need to test the switch and see if it is good. You can also test the wires going to the socket to see if there is power there. Hope this helps.

Jody for Model Number mx1140xmq-1

The power had gone out in our home, and when it came back on, I hit the button to turn the light on, it flashed as though the bulb had expired. When my husband removed it, the bulb itself broke, and the base was stuck in the socket, and after finally getting that out, it looked like there was a dab of hot glue (from the manufacturer from shipping??) holding the socket in. We purchased a bulb from Lowe's, but when we got home, it will not even light still. All other functions of the microwave work perfectly - might this be a bulb issue, or something worse such as the board?? Thanks!

Hello Jody. Check and make sure none of the wires going to the socket have came loose. You can test the wires to the socket and see if your getting power to them. If there is power there, you could have a bulb not rated for this microwave. Hope this helps.

Hello David, the model number brings up a substitution bulb part 8206232A. This bulb has a certain amount of resistance that the control board works with to adjust the brightness. The bulb you bought at your local hardware store might not meet the required resistance for the board to adjust properly. Hope this helps!
