Samsung Microwave display not working

When your Samsung microwave display is not working, start by pressing every control-panel button. If the buttons are also unresponsive, the control module is the most likely cause and may need replacement. On models without a separate display board, a defective touchpad and control panel can cause both the microwave screen and controls to fail. If the display is partially dark or missing segments, the display board is more commonly at fault. A display that is completely blank may point to either the display board or the main control board. Before ordering parts, confirm the microwave is plugged in, test the wall receptacle with another small appliance, and check for a tripped circuit breaker. If the control board has power but the digital display remains blank, the control board may be defective. Enter your Samsung microwave model number to find the exact replacement control module, touchpad, main control board, or display board for your appliance. Any repair that requires removing the outer cabinet must be handled carefully because the high-voltage capacitor can store a lethal charge even after the microwave is unplugged. Proper capacitor discharge is required before interior work, so use a qualified technician if you are not familiar with that procedure.

01 - Samsung Microwave Control Module

A malfunctioning display could be caused by a defective control module. Try pressing each of the buttons on the control panel. If none of the buttons are responding correctly, it is likely the control module is defective and will need to be replaced.

05 - Incoming Power Problem

Confirm the microwave is plugged in and there is power at the wall receptacle. You can plug another small appliance into the receptacle to confirm there is power. If there is no power, confirm the circuit breaker has not tripped.

06 - Samsung Microwave Control Board

Since the control board is a part of the digital display, a defective board could be responsible for a microwave display not working, if the control board has power to it but the display is not working replace the control board.
