Why wont my microwave shut off?

If your microwave oven doesn’t shut off until the door is opened, you may have a problem with the control board. If the control is defective it may not shut off a relay when the function is complete, and then opening the door to interrupt the power to the control would be the only way to terminate the cycle.Click to see full answer. Besides, why does my microwave keep running?If your microwave just keeps going and going until the door is opened, and the “stop” button is unresponsive, the most likely cause is the control board being faulty, or damaged. When this happens the microwave is not sending signals properly, and will think it just needs to keep running.Additionally, does a microwave have a reset button? Press the “Off/Clear’ button to cancel anything on the display, and reset the microwave. Plug the GE microwave back into the wall power supply to reset any anomalies with the microwave’s memory. You will need to reset the time of day if you perform a hard reset. Keeping this in consideration, why won’t my GE microwave fan turn off? The built-in thermostat automatically turns the vent fan on if the unit is too hot, and will not turn off until the microwave is cool again. You will not be able to turn the vent fan off manually during this time. “Too hot” means the temperature around the control panel is above 150 degrees F.How do I know if my microwave fuse is blown?It’s easy to tell if a glass fuse is blown; it will show scorch marks, and the filament will be melted. To check a ceramic fuse, use an ohmmeter or continuity tester. With an ohmmeter or multimeter, you should see a reading close to zero ohms if the fuse is intact, or infinite if it’s blown.
