Our breaker trips when the Menumaster starts. Is it the oven or the building?

It can be either. We check the oven's draw and its high-voltage parts, then the outlet and circuit it is plugged into. If the building is the cause, we say so in writing so you can bring in an electrician instead of paying for oven parts.

Can you reprogram our presets after replacing the keypad?

Yes. When a keypad or control is replaced, we re-enter the cook times you use and test each preset before we leave. Bring a list of your settings if you have one, and we will match it.

What does the $99 diagnostic cover on a microwave?

The full electrical workup: interlocks, fuse, diode, capacitor, transformer, magnetron and controls, plus the power at the outlet. It is credited toward the repair, and you get a written quote before we replace anything.

Menumaster in Benicia

Menumaster commercial service.

Many of downtown Benicia's buildings along First Street date from the 19th and early 20th centuries, and the Arsenal Historic District mixes old brick and stone with WWII-era structures. A Menumaster in the 1000 to 1200 watt range draws a lot of current when it starts, and in an older building it may share a circuit with a toaster, a coffee maker or a reach-in. When the breaker trips, the microwave gets blamed, and sometimes it is innocent.

Our technician for this area is based right here in Benicia. The first step is a $99 diagnostic, credited toward the repair, that checks both the oven and the power feeding it. We write the quote before any work, and if the circuit is the problem we tell you that plainly.

Common repairs we handle.

Breaker trips when the oven starts. A breaker that trips at start can be a shorted high-voltage component, a failing transformer, or simply an overloaded circuit. We measure the oven's draw, check the outlet and circuit under load, and test the diode, capacitor and transformer. The written quote names which one it is.
Magnetron that has lost its output. After years of heavy cycling a magnetron weakens, and the oven takes longer to heat the same portion. A water-load test measures real output. If the magnetron is weak and the rest of the circuit tests good, we replace it with the correct part for your model.
Membrane keypad that ignores presses. The keypad overlay takes years of greasy fingers, and the most-used pads stop registering first. We test the keypad and its connection to the control, replace the keypad if it has failed, and check that the programmed presets still work.
