Looking from the back its on the panel on the left.
On mine it was a ceramic fuse so it was difficult to tell it was blown, so you need to either test or replace it..

Many thanks again..

After you asking if I have checked the fuse, I went back and double checked and lo and behold there was a 10a fuse blown and replacing it has restored normal operation.

A bit annoying I didn’t double check first time as that would have saved me £120 in parts I didn’t need, though I guess one of the parts I replaced might have blown the fuse.

But, I now have a piece of plastic which I can’t remember where I removed it from, so is there someware I find a layout diagram to see where it goes as I can see anywhere obvious..

Yes, but the microwave does come on, then shuts off, which I wouldn’t expect with a blown fuse..

Is there a way of over-riding the control panel to force the microwave to run as I guess that’s the next item..

Back to square one I’m afraid – replaced the inverter and it’s still the same – runs for 2 seconds then stops..

So I’ve replaced the magnetron and the inverter, so can anyone suggest what I try next please..

Many thanks dave – fingers crossed I’ll have a working microwave again..

Many thanks Dave..

Do you have any suggestions how I find the Panasonic equivalent to the Bosch part please..
