Microwave problems we see in Center City

A microwave that runs but doesn't heat usually has a failed high-voltage part, and that is not a safe do-it-yourself repair: the capacitor can hold a charge even when unplugged.

Most towers need a freight-elevator booking and the building manager's approval for contractors, so check your building's rules before the visit.

Condo kitchens, older wiring and moving parts upstairs

Built-in microwaves, microwave drawers and over-the-range models are standard in many Center City condos, high-rise apartments and newer rowhomes. In a high-rise, a repair that may involve carrying a unit in or out can require a freight-elevator reservation and building approval for contractors. Check with your building management before the visit about their requirements for service technicians, so the day runs smoothly.

In older homes, a microwave sometimes shares a kitchen circuit with a toaster, coffee maker or refrigerator, and a microwave that trips a breaker the moment it starts may be overloading a shared circuit rather than failing. Two-prong ungrounded outlets are also still found in some older Philadelphia houses. A microwave should be plugged into a properly grounded outlet; an adapter is not a substitute, and an electrician is the right person to fix the outlet.

Steam and humidity are hard on keypads and control boards. In a small rowhouse kitchen with a pot boiling on the cooktop below and summer humidity on top of that, running the vent fan while cooking helps keep moisture out of the microwave's electronics.
