Possible Causes

Stuck or shorted keypad contact, Moisture ingress behind touch panel, Damaged keypad ribbon cable, Faulty user interface PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the microwave before working near the control panel.

  • Step 1 – Check for stuck keys: Gently press each button several times. If one feels stuck or does not click, the keypad may be physically jammed.
  • Step 2 – Dry out moisture: If the panel was recently cleaned with liquid, leave the door open and allow the unit to dry for several hours, then power cycle.
  • Step 3 – Inspect ribbon cable: Remove the control panel and check the keypad ribbon cable for cracks or corrosion. Reseat it firmly into the control board.
  • Step 4 – Replace keypad or UI: If F0 persists, replace the membrane keypad or complete user interface assembly as specified for your Bauknecht model.
