Wiring RequirementsNo other appliance should share the circuit with the microwaveoven. If it does, the branch circuit fuse may overload and eithercause the oven to heat slower than expected or blow the fuse. 1. For Mode NE-1257

The oven must be on a SEPARATE, 20 Amp, 60 Hz-120VGROUNDED CIRCUIT.

2. For Model NE-1757 a. This oven must be on a separate, 60 Hz GROUNDED

CIRCUIT-minimum 15 amps. b. The microwave ovens are built to operate on 2 different

voltages (230 V or 208 V). Be sure that the voltageselector connector (on the back of the oven) is set foryour power supply. Connecting oven to 230 volt line with208 voltage setting is dangerous and may result inoverheating of the electrical components thusshortening their life expectancy or possibly causing afire or other accident. Connecting oven to 230 volt linewith 208 voltage will lower the power output of the oven,resulting in slower heating of the food. Panasonic isNOT responsible for damage resulting from the use ofthe oven with other than specified voltage.

3. For Model NE-2157 a. This oven must be on a separate, 60 Hz GROUNDED

CIRCUIT-minimum 20 amps. b. The microwave ovens are built to operate on 2 different

voltages (230 V or 208 V). Be sure that the voltageselector connector (on the back of the oven) is set foryour power supply. Connecting oven to 230 volt line with208 voltage setting is dangerous and may result inoverheating of the electrical components thusshortening their life expectancy or possibly causing afire or other accident. Connecting oven to 230 volt linewith 208 voltage will lower the power output of the oven,resulting in slower heating of the food. Panasonic isNOT responsible for damage resulting from the use of

the oven with other than specified voltage.

Check for play in the door by pullingthe door assembly. Make sure that the latch keys movesmoothly after adjustment it completed. Completely tightenthe screws holding the door hook assembly to the ovenassembly.

3. Reconnect the short switch, safety switches A & B andcheck the continuity of t monitor circuit and all latchswitches again.

20.2. Measurement of microwaveoutput

The power output of the magnetron can be determined byperforming IEC standard test procedures. However, due to thecomplexity of IEC test procedures, it is recommended to testthe magnetron using the simple method outlined below.Necessary Equipment:*1 liter beaker*Glass thermometer (Celsius scale)*Wrist watch or stopwatchNOTE: Check the line voltage under load. Low voltage willlower the magnetron output. Take the temperaturereadings and heating time as accurately as possible. 1. Fill the beaker with exactly one liter of tap water. Stir the

water using the thermometer and record the beaker'stemperature (recorded as T1)

2. Place the beaker on the center of ceramic shelf. 3. Set the one to High power and heat it for exactly one

minute. 4. Stir the water again and read the temperature of the beaker

(recorded as T2). The normal temperature rise (T2-T1) atHigh power output for each model is as shown in table.

NOTE: The U. S. Government standard is 5 mW/cm2 whilein the customer's home. 2 mW/cm2 stated here is our ownvoluntary standard. (1 mW/cm2 for Canada)

21.1. EquipmentNote before measuring. 1. Do not exceed meter full scale deflection. Leakage monitor

should initially be set to the highest scale. 2. To prevent false readings the test probe should be held by

the grip portion of the handle only and moved along theshaded area shown in Figure no faster than 1 inch/sec (2.5cm/sec).

3. Leakage with the outer panel removed — less than 5mW/cm2.

4. Leakage for a fully assembled oven with door normallyclosed — less than 2 mW/cm2 (1 mW/cm2 for Canada).

5. Leakage for a fully assembled oven [Before the latch switch(primary) is interrupted] while pulling the door — less than2 mW/cm2.

1. Pour 275± 15cc (9ozs ± 1/2oz) of 20 ± 5°C (68± 9°F) waterin a beaker which has graduations to 600cc, and place inthe center of the oven.

2. Set the radiation monitor to 2450MHz and use it followingthe manufacture's recommended test procedure to assurecorrect results.

3. When measuring the leakage, always use the 2 inch (5 cm)spacer supplied with the probe.

4. Tap the start pad or set the timer and with the magnetronoscillating, measure the leakage by holding the probeperpendicular to the surface being measured.

1. Measurement with the outer pane removed.Whenever you replace the magnetron, measure forradiation leakage before the outer panel is installed andafter all necessary components are replaced or adjusted.Special care should be taken when measuring around themagnetron.

2. Measurements with a fully assembled oven.After all components, including outer panel are fullyassembled, measure for radiation leakage around the door

periphery, the door viewing window, the exhaust openingand air inlet openings.

21.2. Record keeping andnotification after measurement

1. After any adjustment or repair to a microwave oven, aleakage reading must be taken. Record this leakagereading on the repair ticket even if it is zero.A copy of this repair ticket and the microwave leakagereading should be kept by repair facility.

2. Should the radiation leakage be more than 2 mW/cm2 (1mW/cm2 for Canada) after determining that all parts are ingood condition, functioning properly, and genuinereplacement parts as listed in this manual have been used,immediately notify PHCC, PSC or PCI.

21.3. At least once a year, have theradiation monitor checked forcalibration by itsmanufacturer.

Death on Contact – Never measure the High Voltage at the magnetron or transformer.


F81 / F82 Displayed error code or Dead Unit (1/4)

1. Check both fuses: a) First unplug the microwave from the AC circuit. Top cover = 13 screws.

b) Unplug each fuse and check for continuity –

• Both Fuses Good? - Open circuit in the primary path.

Check these parts in this order:

Line cord – unstable AC (strain relief, plug, outlet)

Top and bottom door switches (likely) [page 21]

Open side thermal switch [page 21]

Rear Voltage plug (disconnected / corroded) - inspect

Open Relay RY5 (sub the relay board) DPCB board bad (unlikely) Clogged air filter (code appears aft a few mins., page 26)

• One Fuse is Open? – There is a short circuit in the oven.

Go to step 2 (next page) for quick determination steps. Causes?

Middle double door switch is bad or not aligned Capacitor shorted HV Diode or HV Limiter / protect Diode shorted Magnetron shorted Transformer shorted (unlikely)

Checklist :

Tools: Cleaning materials, DVM, Phillips screwdriver,

Spare Parts: Fuses, Door switch assembly, Capacitor, HV limiter (protect) diode, HV diode, thermal switches, maybe relay board (see parts list, Page 25).

7. Reconnect all 6 Transformer wires.Visually Inspect the transformers for discoloration or melted varnish around the windings. However if the transformers look identical they are most likely OK.

8. Disconnect both connectors to both magnetrons (4 total).

9. Plug the unit into AC, program a time, and press START.

• Unit starts and counts down? Replace the magnetron that corresponds to the open fuse.

Left Fuse Open? Replace the Upper magnetron.

Right Fuse Open? Replace the Lower magnetron.

Forgot which fuse? Test the mag. (p19) Check for a short between a filament terminal and the magnetron case (ground).

• F81 or F82 momentarily appears before the fuse blows? –Magnetrons are good. Problem is the HV diode, Capacitor, HV Limiter, or transformer. Continue.

F33 / F34 Error CodeF33 is the code for a thermistor that is not changing resistance during a heating cycle (after START) or the oven gets too hot.The common cause is an open connection at a ground return point. If the [F34 = shorted sensor].

Checklist :Tools: Cleaning materials, DVM, Phillips screwdriver, sandpaper.Spare Parts: Thermal sensor, Air filter, DPCBoard (unlikely)


1. Remove AC and the top cabinet cover. Measure the resistance of the thermal sensor. Replace if out of range:

• In circuit measurement = 23k ohms typical

• Out of circuit (ground removed) = 30k-75k (58k ohms typical)

2. Remove and Inspect / clean the thermal sensor and air filter (below the door). Clean off grease.

3. Sandpaper clean the ground contact next to the thermal sensor and reattach.

4. Make sure this ground screw at this side of the top DPCB board is there and not loose.

5. Clean / replace the front air filter grill (below the door) if F33 appears after the oven has been running.

Other causes for F33 if the thermal sensor checks within range:• Rear fans not working or broken blade• Air filter clogged with grease• Oven is enclosed (no place for air to vent)


F44 Error Code

Testing the membrane pad at CN7 / pins 1 & 2-9

Test between pins 1 & 2, 1 & 3, 1 & 4, etc. for a normal open circuit

F44 means the micro sees a constant press of a front panel button or there is a crack in the DPCB microprocessor board (very unlikely).

Checklist :Tools: Cleaning materials, DVM, Phillips screwdriver, Spare Parts: Membrane keypad, DPCBoard (unlikely)


F44 almost always means the button membrane is damaged.

1. Remove AC and the cover.

2. Measure the resistance at the top CN7 connector between pins 1 and each one of the remaining pins.Do not press a button.

• 5k ohms or more at each pin? – Membrane is good. Inspect the DPCB board for contamination before replacing this DPCB board.

• Less than 5k ohms? – Replace the membrane pad above the door behind the metal housing.

Membrane Replacement

1. Three screws hold the top metal housing (escutcheon) from the back. Remove them and slide off the housing to expose the membrane switch.

2. Peel off the self adhesive membrane pad and replace.

F86 / F87 Error CodeF86 / F87 is a code for a missing AC Voltage at the upper or lower magnetron transformer primary winding after the start button is pressed.

Checklist :Tools: Cleaning materials, Phillips screwdriver, Spare Parts: Relay board, DPCBoard (unlikely)


1. Remove AC and the cover.

2. If the code is intermittent - Remove and visually Inspect both the lower relay board and top DPCB board for cracks, signs of damage, or debris. Or just unplug and reconnect the connectors on the relay board.

3. Test the unit.

4. If the code is constant - (present every time the start button is pressed) Replace the relay board.


F03 / F04 Error CodeF03 / F04 is a code for the wrong AC Voltage input.

Checklist :Tools: Cleaning materials, DVM, Phillips screwdriver, cup of water. Spare Parts: DPCBoard (unlikely)


Concept - The AC Voltage should be measured with the oven ON if possible because of the Voltage drop from the source. At the oven,

the AC Voltage must be 208 or 230Vac + 5%.

1. Remove the top. Measure the AC Voltage between any fuse terminal and the top white connector (probe into the connector end). Place a cup of water in the oven, set a time and press start. What is the AC Voltage? Use the power on AC Voltage in step 3.

2. On the Panasonic oven, remove the rear Voltage selector cover (top picture).

3. Plug in the connector for the Voltage you measured. • 208Vac = White plug

• 230Vac = Black dot plug.

4. If the outlet AC Voltage is in-between, contact the power company. If it varies, contact an electrician.

Insufficient Heating 1/3

Low power can be caused by:1. Incorrect power level chosen from the keypad (e.g. defrost cycle).2. One of the two (upper or lower magnetron) heating units not working3. Insufficient AC input Voltage during operation

Checklist :Tools: Cleaning materials, DVM, Clamp-On Ammeter, Phillips screwdriver, 8oz cup of water. Spare Parts: Thermal cutout, HV Diode, Capacitor, A stirrer motor (unlikely)

Water not boiling?If the water is not boiling, one magnetron circuit is defective. Next you will Monitor the current consumed by each transformer one at a time, to see if they are equal. You will need a clamp on ammeter.

Heat Test – Do this first.

1. Program the microwave for full power (level 10 – see pictures at right).

2. Fill an 8 oz. cup with room temperature tap water (see the bottom of plastic cups for capacity number in ounces.).

3. Program the time for 1 minute + 35 seconds and press START.

Water Boiling?If the oven can heat an 8 oz cup of water to boiling (212 degrees F / 100C), when set at power level 10 (max), the oven is generating the correct heating power. There is nothing wrong with the microwave oven.

[Technically the oven must raise that much water 140 degrees F in that period of time.]

1. Place clamp on ammeter around both Orange connector wires.1. Place a clamp-on ammeter around both wires of the orange

connector of one transformer. Place water in the oven. Program in a time and press START. Stop when the ammeter reading stabilizes. Note the reading.

2. Turn off the microwave (open the door). Move the clamp-on ammeter to the other transformer’s orange connector wires. Leave water in the oven. Program in a time and press START. Stop when the reading stabilizes. Note the reading.

• Both readings 6-7 Amps AC? – Normal. Electronically the magnetrons are drawing the correct amount of power.

o See if both stirrers are rotating [Top – remove shield. See page 26. Bottom - lift the bottom plate by placing a screwdriver in the special right side access hole and gently levering the bottom plate upward to expose the bottom stirrer.

o Check bottom air filter & clean (details page 26).

o Check Thermal temp sensor (page 10)

• One reading is 0 or Less than 5 Amps AC? - One of the magnetrons is not applied power. Proceed to step 3. Suspects ?

3. How low is the ammeter reading?

• 0 Amps ? – There is an open in one of the magnetron circuits. Which transformer? Check the corresponding parts:

• Right transformer – suspect just the Lower Magnetron, lower thermal sensor, right side capacitor and diodes.

• Left transformer – suspect just the Upper Magnetron, upper thermal sensor, Left side capacitor and diodes.

Test the magnetron (page 22). Tests good?

Replace the cap and diodes.

• 1 - 5 Amps AC? - One of the magnetrons is weak or the one Capacitor + Diodes is defective.

Remove the white cap wire and diode wire from one cap and place it on the other one. [Interchange the diode and wire.] Note they are mirror images of the other. Measure the current again with the transformer with the low reading.

o 6-7 Amps now? Replace the magnetron.

o Still 1-5 Amps now? Replace the cap + HV and limiter/protect diodes that corresponds to the low Amp reading transformer.

Limiter / Protect Diode Check:

The limiter diode (across the cap terminals) should always measure open with a DVM.

1. Remove AC. Short across the HV diode to discharge the capacitor.

2. Unscrew the adjacent HV diode ground screw. Prevent the HV diode from touching ground.

3. Measure the resistance across the capacitor terminals.• Less than 7 Meg ohms? – unplug the diode from the capacitor and retest. If

still less than 7Meg ohms, replace the HV limiter diode.

• More that 7 Meg ohms? – possibly good limiter diode.

4. Another way to check the diode is to disconnect this diode. If the oven no longer blows fuses when disconnected and the oven turned on, the diode is defective.

HV Diode Check

The HV diode (connected to ground) will check open with a DVM but the proper check

is with a 9V battery.

1. Remove AC. Unscrew the HV diode ground screw.

2. Connect a 9V battery in series with the diode and DVM as shown. Note the Voltage.

3. Disconnect & reverse the battery polarity. Note the Voltage again.• Same reading with the battery in either direction? Bad diode.

• Voltage present in 1 battery direction – diode is OK..

The Limiter diodes are mounted across the capacitor terminals. The HV diodes are connected between a capacitor terminal and the frame ground. These diodes are different and therefore test differently.


Capacitor Testing (unplug from AC)

Capacitor Check:

1. Momentarily short across the HV diode wires to discharge the capacitors (prevents DVM damage).

2. Disconnect one of the capacitor connectors.

3. Measure the resistance across the capacitor. Read after 10 sec.

• Resistance is 7Meg ohms or greater? Normal. Cap is not shorted.

• Resistance is less than 7Meg? - Normal. The capacitor is not shorted.

Magnetron Tests (unplug from AC)

Both tests can be made after removing 1 filament lead and testing with an ohmmeter.

Filament Test

1. Remove one or both filament leads (from F or FA terminals)

2. Place an ohmmeter across the two magnetron terminals shown as F and FA in the diagram.

• No Reading is displayed? – Filament is open. Replace the magnetron.

• Reading is 0 ohms? – Normal. Continue.

Short test

3. Place the ohmmeter leads across one of the filament leads and the case.

• Reading is 0 ohms? – Defective. Replace this magnetron that is blowing out the fuse.

• No Reading is displayed? – Normal. Magnetron is not shorted / not blowing out fuses.

1. Remove either wire (both shown removed

from magnetron for clarity)

Subject: Capacitor replacement in PRO 1 and PRO 2 units

When replacing a defective (shorted) capacitor on any the aforementioned models above, please follow the guidelines below.

1. Check to see if any of the other installed capacitors are either China production or Japan

(Matsushita) production. See illustration below. 2. If the other Capacitors are China production, check the working voltage (VAC) of the capacitors. It

should be 2300VAC for the PRO 1 units and 2500 VAC for the Pro 2 units. Please refer to the chart below.

3. If the capacitor is not at the new proper rated voltage, replace them with the improved one even if it measures good as this will prevent additional service calls.

Additionally, if the model number is NE1757R or NE2157R, please make sure to replace the 18 or 20 Amp fuse with the new 15 Amp fuse* which are supplied with the capacitor.

*When submitting the warranty claim, please do not charge for the 15 Amp fuses as there are included with the kit.

Subject: Magnetron Test for Opens, shorts or Insufficient Power A. The following tests will indicate if a magnetron is open or shorted.

• Unplug the unit • Discharge all the H.V Capacitors (refer to service manual on how to discharge) • Disconnect all the leads (connectors) from the magnetron terminals.

B. The following temperature test will indicate if a magnetron is weak. Make sure unit is plugged in.

1. Fill a beaker or cup with EXACTLY 8 oz (1 Cup) tap water. 2. Record the temperature of the water (Should be approx. 70o F) 3. Place it in the center of the microwave and heat it for the time specified*. 4. Water should be boiling. Record the temperature again. 5. Temperature should rise approximately 142o F (Go to Step 6 only if temperature rise is

considerably lower than 142o F otherwise all magnetrons are functioning properly) 6. To test for the weak magnetron, connect one magnetron at a time and repeat Steps 1-4. a. For ovens that contain 2 magnetrons (NE1257R, NE1258R, NE1757R, NE2157R), the

temperature rise should be approximately 70o F per magnetron.

b.For ovens that contain 4 magnetrons (NE2180, NE3280), the temperature rise should be

approximately 35o F per magnetron. * See field expedient test on the back of the page

Step 1 • Using an Ohm meter on its lowest resistance scale, measure the

resistance from one magnetron terminal to the other in either direction as shown on the illustration on the left.

• Meter should read less than 1Ω indicating that the filament is good. • If Filament checks good, proceed to Step 2

Step 2 • Using an Ohm meter on its highest resistance scale, measure the

resistance from one of the magnetron terminals to the metal casing of the magnetron as shown on the illustration on the left.

• Meter should read infinity (open circuit) regardless of meter polarity. If the meter indicates a short (Less than 1 Ω), the magnetron is defective.

Model: NE1257R, NE1258R, NE1757R

Subject: In order to enhance the oven’s performace, door hook “A” has been modified. All ovens manufactured after December 2002 already have the modified door hook “A” installed and are not subject to this bulletin. Symptom: The oven’s cavity light and the display will function. The timer can be set, but the oven will not start after the START button is pressed. Cause: Excessive force applied while closing the door causes the plastic elements of the door hook “A”, which limit the movement of levers, to break and subsequently disallow for proper operation of switches. Remedy: Install new (modified) door hook “A”, part number: A3020-3850. NOTE: Since the existing and the improved door hooks have the same part number, please refer to figures below for proper identification of the improved door hook.
