BUSTED MICROWAVE?

I have one of those big over-the-stove microwaves, and I never realized how much I used it until I took the damn thing apart the other day.

It wasn't the usual take-apart-and-go-uh-oh job I'm widely known for by family and friends. This time I actually KNEW what I was doing courtesy of THESE GUYS

Problem was the light bulbs under the damn thing went out and wouldn't go on even when I inserted new ones. Apparently my lovely spouse, Mrs. LA, can't live without the little lights under her microwave, so I had to find out what the problem was.

Turns out in these days of electronics and whatnot, the whole control board had to be returned for this - as it turned out - quite common problem (hint: when you change bulbs, unplug your microwave before unscrewing the old bulb).

Anyway, that led me to William Miller and his MicroWave display-dot-com site.

What it looks like right now is pictured above. Scary, huh?
