Caloric Microwave buttons not working

If your Caloric microwave buttons are not working, first press each button to see whether only some controls fail or the entire keypad is unresponsive. When some buttons respond but others do not, the most likely cause is a defective touchpad and control panel, followed by a failed touchpad. If none of the buttons respond correctly, the user control and display board is the next likely cause, followed by the main control board, control board, or control panel. These parts may also be described as the membrane switch, microwave keypad, or user interface board. A failed microwave start button, number buttons, or several unresponsive buttons usually points to the touchpad or control electronics rather than a door problem. Enter your Caloric microwave model number to find the exact replacement part for your specific appliance. If the repair requires opening the outer cabinet, unplug the microwave first and use proper safety procedures. The high-voltage capacitor can store a lethal charge even after the microwave is unplugged and must be properly discharged before any interior work. If you are not familiar with capacitor discharge procedures, have a qualified technician perform the repair.
