Obviously blown ceramic 20AMP fuse. Replaced fuse. Still no lights no power. Technical data sheet indicates Varistor replacement or failed power supply. Know where I can get a TVR 14271 (varistor)? I have researched this for hours and read somewhere that if I cut out the Varistor that took the power hit, plug everything back in and it works then I will have confirmed Varistor failure and the Microwave will run without surge protection until I replace the Varistor. I would feel more comfortable having the replacement in-hand before snipping it out. Advice?
History: Microwave shares circuit with other appliances. Has tripped the breaker about a dozen times since we moved into this place last year. Manual advises Microwave be on it's own "120Volt, 15-20 Amp. parallel, grounded separate circuit." This is not the case.
