Shake rattle creak

[groundpounder]

I am new to ownership but would like to know if anyone has a technique to kill the creaking rattle noise I hear in the cabinetry. There is nothing clearly loose. The main source appears from the microwave cabinet area. Already put towel around microwave tray and stove grill top. Also fixed window rattle with anti rattle clips.

Rattles and squeaks can drive some of us nuts! Get a friend to drive your rig down a bumpy back road while you do some sleuthing.

If the sound seems to come from the microwave, suggest you pull the microwave out and see if the source is revealed. You might try puttin some weatherstrip under the supports for that microwave.

You will be surprised as to what and how much manufacturing junk is located under the microwave. The bottom panel might not even be screwed down.

Turn the radio up!!
Seriously
(I can't believe that I just said that! )
You'll need to hit every screw, bolt, nut and fastener; with a bit of attention.
Then you need to start looking at what you've got piled in the cabinets.
THEN you need to start chasing the 'intangibles"...
Stuff like wiring, plumbing, and stuff in the outside storage bins...
Good luck, and Happy Hunting!

I found my bedroom TV hdmi cable stuffed behind the microwave. Not to mention a bunch of debris left over from assembly.
