Thermador MD24JS
A drawer that slides open under a counter was Thermador’s answer for people who disliked reaching over a door, and the MD24JS is an early 24-inch version of that idea. ManualsLib’s listing of its installation-instructions manual confirms it as a genuine microwave oven, quite separate from the MD24BS and MD24WS drawer models sold now.
Moving parts decide how this one ages. The glide rails and the motor that drive the drawer are what wear, and a drawer that cannot close fully will not trigger the interlock switch that has to see it shut before any cycle begins. That is why a no-start often turns out to be a mechanical drawer issue.
Past the drawer, expect what any older microwave brings: a keypad that gets unreliable, and eventually a magnetron that loses strength. We start with the glides.
The drawer may not be seating fully, so the interlock switch never registers it as closed. Worn glide rails or a tired drive motor are the usual reason for that.
Yes. It came before the MD24BS and MD24WS, which are the touch-open drawers sold now. The idea is shared, but the older mechanics and parts differ.
With the glide rails and the drive motor, since slow opening or binding signals wear there. We inspect them before looking at the keypad or the heating parts.
