IS THERE A SIMPLE WAY TO SILENCE

your microwave beeper? Ours beeps 4 times when through cooking even if you open the door. If you don't get to it right away it keeps beeping as a reminder..........DRIVING ME NUTS!!

Probably have to find the wire to it & cut it. LOL!!!

DH did that in his truck. It was always dinging so he cut the wire.

I GOOGLED it and that seemed to be the common suggestion. This one is built in and I am not about to dismantle the thing LOL. One person suggested pressing the #2 for 3 seconds. That didn't work on ours. Oh well.........beep, beep, beep,

I also have four sets of beeps. What gets me is I can barely hear the one beep the oven emits with the TV on. Nothing serious happens if you forget something in the microwave, try forgetting something in the oven for a half hour. It can be a catastrophe.

My microwave bell is SO LOUD it is painful. One of these days I'm going to fall and break something as I run to get to it before it pierces my eardrum. I got out the owner's manual hoping to find help - nothing. I called the manufacturer and I got the impression the representative thought I was a weirdo for even asking - obviously no help. I've even thought about just buying a new one but I'm not sure if hearing/testing it in the store would be the same as bringing it home. I'm glad I'm not alone, but also sorry that this appears to be a common problem.

You could rewrite the software to only beep once!

The beeping will stop on mine when I press the Stop button.

I have a Kenmore that beeps 5 times when done and then stops. It's not too loud and I don't hear it unless I'm near the kitchen.

I wouldn't like endless beeping either.

If you haven’t already, check your manual. Some models do offer the ability to change the volume of the beeps, or silence them altogether.

On our microwave, you hold the #1 button down for 3 seconds.

Ours is not new microwave and old enough to use simple electronics to control those features. With the age of computerized "everything", my guess is there is something in the "settings menu", like tv sets etc., where you can change most every "auto-set" from the factory.

Haven't read, per usual, any of the other posts in this thread as of yet. May be repeating what others may have already posted.
