Q:GE microwave oven blows its main time delay inline fuse everytime i put new one in

Microwave Fuse

Q:I have the right fuse the cord is ok the capacitors appear to be ok I don't see anything that stands out to let me know where the problem is. I change the fuse and as soon as I plug it in it blows.

This answer isn't going to be very helpful, but it is the best one I can give without being there in person to snoop, meter and prod things a bit. You likely have some component in the power supply section that has gone out of tolerance by shorting quietly. This occurs when a resistance drops enough to blow fuses rapidly, but the very fact that it blows fuses rapidly keeps it from ever damaging anything to the point of finding the problem with a visual inspection. My best guess from here is that this model VCR / DVD has quiescent state power so that it can be used with a remote control at all times. That leads me to believe that the problem itself would be in either the particular section of the power supply that provides this power or in the sections dealing with the remote sensor and any micro controller that interprets and activates those commands. There is one fairly simple possibility you might have overlooked. Make sure that no connectors or bare wires are against the case that you can see. Also check for minor discolorations of the boards due to heating. If you aren't a qualified tech or a talented hobbyist with tools available such as a multimeter, this will be very difficult for you to track and repair yourself I'm afraid. And, as always, it isn't safe to work around equipment you're not thoroughly familiar with, even disconnected. Best advice is take it in for repairs or replace it. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Q:I need to get a ball park idea regarding fixing or replacing the cigarette lighter in my car--- 2005 Hyundai Accent specifically, but curious how much it would cost for any car. It is not a fuse problem--- when I was pulling my phone charger out, it ripped some component out with it (a metal ring and a smaller metal piece). If I try to plug something it, it sparks and caused my GPS unit to reset, etc.

It's inexpensive.

Q:I have a 1988 Jeep Comanche Sportruck and all of the gas, speed, etc gauges are not working. The lights that lit up the gauges used to work before I recharged my battery, since the jeep was left sitting for a couple months. But ever since I had the truck none of the speed, gas, and all the rest of the gauges have been reading/ working anything at all. What could the problem be and how could I fix this myself before having to go to a repair shop? Thank you for your help I've had this problem for so long and it's just time for me to fix this.

Check fuses, if not a fuse, replace the dashboard gauge circuit board. DISCUSSION: Check the simplest and cheapest things first (fuses). If it is not a fuse problem, the easiest (and possibly the cheapest) step is to replace the dashboard gauges with parts from a junk yard. You might have blown the voltage regulator on the dash board (not the voltage regulator associated with the alternator). The difficulty of getting out the old dashboard gauges, and replacing a single component is slightly more than the difficulty of getting out the old dashboard gauges and replacing the who dashboard gauge circuit board, gauges and all. You might have also blown some gauges, so even if you fix one component, you might have to go back in to fix more. It is better to recharge the battery when it is disconnected from the car (to avoid the possibility of blowing out sensitive electronics such as dash boards).

Q:I have looked at the circuit board looks fine.Is there a commen component that gets burned out?

depending on the model of the set-a thermo trip or voltage regulator may have been activated most tv's have these built into their power supply units as safety features-also check the 20 millimeter fuse/s on the power supply board-if something had burned out you would smell it.

Q:I have an assignment on 'Electricity in the home'. The part i have to research on is the components of the main eg; main wire, live wire, neutral wire, 3pin plug, fuse, switch.What do these fall under? I cant jus look for main n find these components. I was told its the 'Main Circuit Breaker'. Im lookin for this and non of the components i listed are on the sites. Is there a particular word i have to use. Are there any other components im missing other than the ones listed above?i jus need to write short notes and get some pictures but im not finding any information.

components are: circuit breaker aka MCB circuit breaker box aka distribution panel aka Consumer unit wire of various sizes wire staples outlets switches lights (permanent mounted in ceiling or wall) Parts attached to the appliance, not part of the mains plug wire and the various tools used to put it all together.

Q:i have 2 12 mtx tr75s and a 1000w alpine amp and a 4 gauge boss wiring kit i blew the 60a fuse that came with it within 2 days and blew the 80a today after just buying it should i go with the 100a or 125a agu fuse

Find the short before you trash your gear and start a fire.

Q:I assume it is a fuse problem, but would it not cancel out all of the tops?A fuse for each side no?I'm not great with electrical components so any help would be appreciated. I'm trying to avoid a hefty Electrician bill if it is a minor problem.Thanks in advance.

Those coils do go bad. Plus it could also be a problem with the transformers burning out for each coil. Call a repairman.

Q:I just recently joined the National Guard Reserve as a 21R Interior Electrician and plan on going to school for a couple of years to get a degree for a civilian job as an electrician when I decide to settle down and leave the military(I am planning WAY ahead) since I plan on joining the military for otherExhilarating jobs(Tanks and Stuff)

BUD I AM A 27 YEAR OLD MASTER ELECTRICIAN LIVING IN MARYLAND. NEW YORK IS NOT THE ONLY PLACE AT THE MOMENT IT IS EVERYWHERE BOTH UNION AND NON UNION. I DECIDED TO COLLECT UNEMPLOYMENT AND I AM GOING TO ITT TECH FOR MY ENGINEERING DEGREE. THIS WAY THEY WILL BE ABLE TO PLACE ME WHILE I AM IN SCHOOL AND WITH THE ECONOMY THE WAY IT IS I WOULD SUGGEST YOU DOING THE SAME. THIS ROAD WILL OPEN ALLOT OF DOORS FOR YOU. I GOT ALL SCHOOL LOANS FROM FINANCIAL AID AND I DO NOT OWE A DIME UNTIL AFTER I GRADUATE. WITH YOUR EXPERIENCE AS A ELECTRICIAN AND THE ENGINEERING DEGREE YOU WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO MAKE 100 - 200 THOUSAND A YEAR EASY. GOOD LUCK

Q:I checked the cooling fan fuse underneath the hood but it is fine, i think that is for the radiator.There is 20 fuses in the hood fuse box. In the interior fuse box there is 25 fuses but my owners manual does not state any mention of an a/c fuse. What # is it?Where is the fuse for the air conditioner?2002 honda civic sedan.

both fuse boxes will have a/c components, and not just fuses. there are also relays
