Maytag MMV4205AAS Over-The-Range Microwave Repair

Most common issues on this model

Lamp under the unit staying dark
Cooking cycle with no heat in the food
Exhaust fan slow or noisy
Keypad ignoring some pads

The MMV4205AAS is a Maytag over-the-range microwave that doubles as the hood above your cooktop. MMV4205AAB is another listing of the same base number. The unit hangs from a mounting plate on the wall and the cabinet above, so it is a common sight in Houston condos and tract homes alike.

The lamps often get the first complaint, since cooking lights are used daily. We test the bulb, then the socket and wiring if a good bulb still stays dark. After that we check heating, the turntable, the fan and the controls so one visit covers the whole unit rather than one part.

The label tells us which part fits, so it is read before we order. The price is agreed in writing first, and we say so directly when a repair would cost more than the microwave is worth.

MMV4205AASMMV4205AAS questions

A new bulb in my MMV4205AAS still does not light. Why?

Then the bulb is not the cause. We look at the socket for burn marks, the wiring to it and the switch circuit. The part we replace depends on what we find, and the price is quoted first.

Can the fan be noisy even if it works?

Yes. Grease on the blower wheel, a loose wheel or a worn motor bearing all make noise. We open the unit, clean what can be cleaned and tell you if the motor itself needs replacing.

What do you need from me before the visit?

Clear the cooktop and the area under the unit, and have the model number ready. The label location varies, so we find the full model and serial ourselves and confirm before ordering parts.
