Fagor Humidity / Sensor Cooking Fault

Microwave sensor-cook or auto-reheat programs stop too early or run too long, giving poor results.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Contaminated humidity sensor, Faulty humidity sensor, Blocked sensor vent, Control board misinterpreting sensor data

Safety: Unplug before internal cleaning.

Cleaning:

Clean the interior thoroughly, especially near the sensor vent (often on the top or side of the cavity).
Ensure no plastic wrap or covers block the sensor area during cooking.

If performance does not improve, the humidity sensor may need replacement and the control may require recalibration by a technician.
