Estate Microwave buttons not working

If your Estate microwave buttons are not working, first check whether some buttons respond while others do not. When only certain keys fail, the touchpad and control panel are the most likely cause, followed by the touchpad itself. If the entire keypad is unresponsive, the user control and display board is a likely failure point, followed by the main control board, control board, or control panel. These parts can cause a microwave keypad not working, microwave touchpad not working, microwave number buttons not working, or microwave buttons unresponsive symptom even when the microwave has power. Press each button to compare its response, and inspect for stuck, damaged, or worn areas on the control panel. Enter your Estate microwave model number to find the exact replacement part for your specific microwave. Replacing a touchpad, control panel, or electronic board may require opening the outer cabinet. Unplug the microwave first, and remember that the high-voltage capacitor can store a lethal charge even after the microwave is unplugged. The capacitor must be properly discharged before any interior work. If you are not familiar with capacitor discharge procedures, have a qualified technician complete the repair.

07 - Estate Microwave Switch Holder

The microwave switch holder is the component that houses the door switches behind the control panel. If the switch holder is damaged or misaligned, one of more switches may not be actuated when the microwave door is closed, which may prevent the buttons on the control panel from functioning. You will need to uninstall the control panel and inspect the switch holder to confirm it is in good condition and secured properly. Replace the switch holder with a new one if necessary.
