Noise from the turntable motor when it starts to operate in your Samsung Microwave Oven may result from the motor itself. Replace the turntable motor.
Why does my Samsung CM1629 program but the timer doesn't start?
If your Samsung Microwave Oven can be programmed but the timer doesn't start, it could be due to defective circuitry of the Start function of the Main P.C.B Ass’y or loose lead wires. Check the circuitry of the Start function on the Main P.C.B Ass’y and replace it if defective. Adjust or repair any loose wires.
Why did the light go out in my Samsung CM1629 Microwave Oven?
If the oven lamp in your Samsung Microwave Oven goes off, it could be due to a loose lead wire or an open lamp filament, misadjustment of the latch switch, or a defective primary latch switch. Tighten the lamp lead wire or replace the lamp with a new one.
How to fix uneven cooking in my Samsung CM1629?
Uneven cooking in your Samsung Microwave Oven can be due to the uneven intensity of microwaves, which is characteristic of the appliance. To mitigate this, wrap thinner parts of the food with aluminum foil. Use plastic wrap or cover with a lid. Stir once or twice while cooking foods such as soup, cocoa, or milk.
What to do if my Samsung CM1629 timer counts down but doesn't heat?
If your Samsung Microwave Oven timer starts counting down but there's no microwave oscillation (no heat, but the oven lamp and fan are on), it could be due to a few reasons. There might be an open or loose connection in the high voltage circuit, especially the magnetron filament circuit. Large contact resistance can lower the magnetron filament voltage, causing reduced output or intermittent oscillation. Also, defective high voltage components like the H.V. Transformer, H.V. Capacitor, H.V. Diode, H.V. Fuse, or the Magnetron could be the cause. Adjust the door and latch switches. Check the high voltage components and replace them if they are defective.
Why is my Samsung CM1629 completely dead?
If your Samsung Microwave Oven is completely dead, with no display or operation, and the fuse is okay, the issue could stem from several causes: an open or loose lead wire harness, an open thermal cutout (on the Magnetron or cavity), an open low voltage transformer, or a defective Ass’y PCB. Check the fan motor when the thermal cutout is defective. Check Ass’y PCB when L.V.T is defective.
Why is my Samsung Microwave Oven making a loud buzzing noise?
A loud buzzing noise in your Samsung Microwave Oven can be caused by several issues: loose fan or fan motor, loose screws on the H.V. Transformer, a shorted H.V. Diode, or loose/missing screws on the Cover-Back. To resolve this, tighten the screws of the fan motor and the H.V. Transformer. Replace the H.V. Diode if necessary, and ensure all screws on the Cover-Back are tightened.
Why is my Samsung CM1629 Microwave Oven taking longer to cook food?
If your Samsung Microwave Oven isn't heating food properly, even though the oven lamp and ventilation are working, several factors could be responsible. It might be due to a decrease in the power source voltage, in which case you should consult an electrician. Another cause could be open or loose wiring in the magnetron filament circuit, potentially leading to intermittent oscillation. Aging of the magnetron or defective high voltage components like the H.V. Transformer, Capacitor, Diode, Fuse, or the Magnetron itself can also be culprits. Check the high voltage components and replace if defective.
Why is my Samsung Microwave Oven sparking?
Sparks inside your Samsung Microwave Oven are often caused by metallic ware or cooking dishes touching the oven wall. Ceramic ware trimmed with gold or silver powder can also cause sparks. To prevent this, ensure you are using microwave-safe cookware and avoid items with metallic trimming.
Why Samsung CM1629 Microwave Oven stirrer does not rotate?
If the drive motor in your Samsung Microwave Oven isn't working (the Ass’y stirrer doesn't rotate), it could be due to an open or loose wiring of the turntable motor, a defective turntable motor, or a defective ass’y stirrer. Check the wire of the drive motor. Replace the drive motor or the ass’y stirrer.
