Unit beeps repeatedly and will not start; display may show door or basket icon but no specific code.

Safety first: Unplug before accessing the switch. Do not bypass the safety circuit for normal operation.

Step-by-step checks:

• Reinsert basket: Remove and firmly reinsert the basket/drawer, ensuring it is fully seated.
• Clean contact area: Wipe the front edge and sides of the basket and the mating area on the housing to remove grease and crumbs.
• Inspect switch: Access the microswitch and verify that the actuator lever moves freely and clicks when the basket is inserted.
• Check actuator tab: Ensure the plastic or metal tab on the basket that presses the switch is intact and not worn down.
• Replace faulty parts: If the switch does not operate reliably, replace the microswitch or basket assembly as needed.

When to stop: If you cannot restore reliable switch operation, contact a technician. Do not defeat the safety feature.
