Milwaukee & Waukesha Counties

Microwaves come in all shapes and sizes and have been around since the 1930's.

• Compact -great for dorm rooms
• Countertop
• Mid-Sized
• Full-Sized
• Over the Range -space efficient usually includes a hood for range as well
• Microwave / Oven Combo
• Microwave "Drawer"

So there is a microwave oven out there just right for you. Lake Country Repair can repair your microwave, no matter which type you have.

Things that can go wrong with a microwave are:

• Pushing the start button and nothing happens
• Microwave cooks for a while, then suddenly stops
• Uneven cooking or heating
• Unit starts cooking upon door closing regardless of any cooking selection you may have made
• Electrical arc inside the unit - when you do NOT have anything metal inside
• Key pad has non working "buttons"

If any of these symptoms occur, Lake Country Repair can fix them with the proper replacement microwave parts.Most often a microwave has a burned out fuse that needs to be replaced by a pro. We can also test to see if your microwave is leaking radiation.

Before you call us for service on your microwave if it acts "dead" check the outlet it is plugged into first. Unplug the microwave and plug a working lamp into the same outlet. If the lamp works, the issue is truly with the unit.

For our technical customers - is your microwave performing like it should?

Here is a simple test.

1. Take 1 liter of cold tap water and measure the temperature (in Celsius) - put in thin plastic container.
2. Heat on high power for one minute in the microwave and measure temperature again after stirring to even out the temperature (in Celsius).
3. Perform this simple formula: (1000 (1 liter in cl) * temperature rise in C * 4.1868) / 60 (60 second time) This will give you the approximate power rating of your unit in Watts.

Compare this to your instruction manual. If the formula gives a vastly lower answer, it is time to call in the microwave experts from Lake Country Repair!

General microwave maintenance:

• If possible have the microwave on a dedicated outlet
• Wipe spill inside the unit promptly, especially around the door seal
• Remove stuck on food with an all purpose cleaner (if you leave them they will turn into carbon over time and will cause arcing
• Never try to repair a microwave yourself!
