Thermador Microwave buttons not working

If your Thermador microwave buttons are not working, press every button on the control panel to determine whether the problem affects only some keys or the entire keypad. When some buttons respond correctly while others do not, the touchpad and control panel are the most likely cause, followed by the touchpad itself. If the microwave start button, number buttons, or other microwave keypad buttons are all unresponsive, the user control and display board is the next likely failure, followed by the main control board and control board. A defective control panel is less common but can also cause microwave control panel buttons to stick or stop responding. Before replacing parts, check for obvious damage, moisture, or debris around the membrane switch. Enter your Thermador microwave model number to find the exact replacement part for your specific appliance. Some control repairs require opening the outer cabinet. The high-voltage capacitor can store a lethal charge even after the microwave is unplugged, so it must be properly discharged before any interior work. If you are not familiar with capacitor discharge procedures, have a qualified technician perform the repair.
