Beeping only at night?

Yes sounds weird but the microwave in my TT beeps all night long LOL.
All it shows is ooo on the front panel which is apparently the normal display...I can't understand. Can anyone help, thank you in advance.
Note: beeps "only" at night.

Most microwaves "normal" display is the clock. Try checking the owners manual that came with the microwave or look up the manual on line and read it. It sounds like a timer complete beep or something.

More info would be nice...microwave manufacturer, trailer model number, etc..

Think it could be a spike in power that returns it back to 0 ?

Could it be some other electronic device that is doing the beeping? I'd be in favor of unplugging the microwave at night just to make sure that the microwave is the culprit.

I would think a voltage dip could be more of a cause than a spike. Spike being over nominal and dip less than nominal.

Good suggestion, RVhiker on unplugging the micro to be sure it's the culprit.

Yeah unplug it to make sure. We tested ours when when bought the new trailer in march to make sure it worked. Then I unplugged it and it has stayed that way since.......

Every time we unplug from shore power the microwave losses its memory and displays 000 until we reset the clock. We rarely ever set the clock as we typically are only at the camp site for a few days.

Un plugging the microwave is a great test. How often does it beep?

What model and year is your TT, it might help diagnose the issue.

I've been testing mine today and can't get it to beep like yours.

#1 - set the clock when you set up camp. Not sure if it will stop the beeping, but at least you'll know what time the beeping starts.

#2 - If I don't take my food out (or at least open the door) as soon as the timer hits 0.0, mine will beep at me too. You might want to check inside the nuker to make sure there's not a 3-week old bagel that someone heated up and forgot about.

Hey, I'm just trying to cover all the bases.

You guys are awesome, thank you for your input and yes my DW found bags of chips in the microwave that someone left in there. Tomorrow I'm going to apply power to it and see what happen, I'll keep you posted, thanks.

we use our microwave as our primary bread box. There is always something in it

If a timer is set it will beep until you turn it off. probably unplugging it will reset everything.
