KitchenAid microwave ovens have a monitoring system designed to assure proper operation of the safety interlock systems.

The interlock monitor switch will immediately cause the oven fuse to blow if the door is opened and the primary door interlock switch and/or the secondary interlock switch contacts fail in a closed position.

CAUTION: REPLACE BLOWN FUSE WITH 15 AMPERE CLASS H FUSE ONLY.

Test the upper and lower door interlock switches, cook relay and interlock monitor switch (middle switch) for proper operation as described in the component test procedures, before replacing the blown oven fuse.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR STICKING CONTACTS OF ANY INTERLOCK SWITCH, SAFETY SWITCH OR COOK (LATCH) RELAY. REPLACE THE SWITCHES AND RELAY.

Any indication of sticking contacts during component tests requires replacement of that component to assure reliability of the safety interlock system.

IF THE FUSE IS BLOWN, THE MONITOR, PRIMARY AND SECONDARY INTERLOCK SWITCHES MUST BE REPLACED. BE SURE THEY ARE PROPERLY CONNECTED.
