Troubleshooting tips and frequently asked questions for Bosch Microwave.
Troubleshooting tips
If your Bosch microwave won't start, check that the door is fully closed and the child lock is not activated. Press and hold the Stop/Reset button for 3 seconds to deactivate child lock.
If the microwave runs but doesn't heat, ensure the power level is not set to 0 and that the timer is set. Also, check if the door interlock switches are functioning; if not, contact Bosch service.
For sparking inside the microwave, remove any metal utensils or foil and clean the waveguide cover with a damp cloth. If sparking persists, the waveguide cover may be damaged and needs replacement.
If the turntable doesn't rotate, make sure it is properly seated on the hub and that the roller ring is clean and undamaged. If the motor is faulty, schedule a repair.
If the display is blank or flickering, reset the microwave by unplugging it for 60 seconds, then plug it back in. If the issue continues, there may be a control board fault.
