1997 panasonic microwave/confection oven fault

[Ray]

I have the origanal microwave/confection oven - at times it goes into some kind of looped fault where the display counts 1 to 4 over and over again - above the counting numbers is "comb" - it beeps each time the number changes. Just reseting it dost work - sometime if I hit enough buttons in no particular order it stops and then works fine. If I shut off the breaker and turn it back on it keeps doing it - however, I did unbolt it, unplug it, and pluged it back in and it reset - I know that dosnt make any sense at all - I must have done something else while pulling it out to do this. There is no pattern of when this does it - sometimes dosnt for a few weeks - sometimes a few mins? - Any ideas besides leaving it unpluged or buying a new one? Thanks

Try logging onto Panasonic's website and ask them to find a service center in your area.

Looks like a intermittent problem, caused by a loose connector.
The microwave isnt made for an RV.
If possible, take the cover(s) off and check the various connectors of
the electronic panels etc.
