dE
Microwave displays dE or DE and will not start; often accompanied by a door open icon.
Door Not Closed / Door Switch Detection Error
E1
Microwave beeps and displays E1 shortly after pressing START; cooking does not begin.
Door Switch Interlock Failure
E2
Microwave displays E2 and will not start heating; sometimes appears after a few seconds of operation.
Humidity / Steam Sensor Error
E3

Magnetron Overheat / Thermal Cutout Trip
E4
Microwave displays E4 and will not start; sometimes appears immediately when plugging in.
Temperature Sensor / NTC Failure
E5
Microwave shows E5 and stops heating; may beep repeatedly and shut down mid-cycle.
Inverter / High-Voltage Power Error (Inverter Models)
E6
Microwave displays E6 and will not start; keypad and display may still respond.
Relay / Power Control Board Failure
E7
Microwave shows E7 and stops; often associated with convection or grill modes on combo models.
Convection / Grill Temperature Sensor or Fan Error
E8
Microwave displays E8 when using grill or combination modes; cooking stops prematurely.
Grill Heater Overheat / Thermal Cutout Trip
E9
Microwave shows E9 and will not start; sometimes associated with turntable or motor issues.
Turntable Motor / Position Sensor Error
F1
Microwave displays F1 and beeps; may not respond to keypad inputs.
Control Board Internal Error
F2
Microwave shows F2 and may stop mid-cycle; often related to sensor cooking modes.
Sensor Cooking Circuit Error
F3
Microwave displays F3 and may not allow cooking; sometimes associated with temperature sensing modes.
Cavity Temperature Sensor Short / Open
F4
Microwave shows F4 and stops; may be related to convection or grill functions.
Convection / Grill Sensor or Thermostat Error
F5
Microwave displays F5 and will not start; may be associated with door or safety circuits.
Safety Interlock Chain Error
F6
Microwave shows F6 and may not heat; often related to fan or airflow issues.
Cooling Fan Feedback Error
F7
Microwave displays F7 and may shut down unexpectedly; sometimes associated with over-the-range vent fan.
Ventilation Fan / Sensor Error (OTR Models)
F8
Microwave shows F8 and may not start; sometimes related to line voltage or internal power supply.
Input Power / Voltage Error
F9
Microwave displays F9 and may immediately stop any cooking attempt.
EEPROM / Memory Error
H0
Microwave displays H0 or HO and does not heat; fan and light may still operate.
High-Voltage System Protection / HV Failure
H1
Microwave displays H1 or HI and stops; often associated with over-temperature condition.
Cavity Overheat Protection
H2
Microwave shows H2 and will not start; often after extended cooking.
Magnetron Overheat Lockout
PF
Microwave displays PF or P0 after a power outage or when first plugged in; may require clock reset.
Power Failure Indication
SE
Microwave beeps continuously and displays SE; keypad may respond erratically or not at all.
Keypad Short / Stuck Key Error
Symptom
Microwave convection mode does not heat, but standard microwave mode works.
Convection Heater Failure
Symptom
Microwave display is dim, flickering, or some segments are missing.
Display / VFD / LED Module Failure
Symptom
Microwave display works but pressing START does nothing; no relay click, no fan, no light.
Start Circuit / Control Logic Failure
Symptom
Microwave does not start at all; display is blank and no lights or sounds when door is opened.
No Power – Primary Power Circuit Failure
Symptom
Microwave door will not open or is very hard to open after cooking.
Door Latch / Release Mechanism Binding
Symptom
Microwave door will not stay closed or pops open during operation.
Door Latch Misalignment / Wear
Symptom
Microwave emits a burning smell or smoke from vents during or after cooking.
Overheating Component or Food Residue Burning
Symptom
Microwave fan runs but there is no interior light and no turntable movement; unit may not heat.
Partial Power / Relay or Wiring Fault
Symptom
Microwave grill function does not brown food; grill element does not glow red.
Grill Element Failure
Symptom
Microwave interior is sparking or arcing during use, often near the waveguide cover or around metal spots.
Cavity Arcing / Waveguide Contamination
Symptom
Microwave interior light does not come on, but unit heats and operates normally.
Cavity Lamp Failure
Symptom
Microwave keypad buttons are unresponsive or require very hard presses.
Membrane Keypad Wear
Symptom
Microwave light and fan come on when START is pressed, but the turntable does not rotate.
Turntable Drive Failure
Symptom
Microwave makes loud buzzing or humming noise while running, louder than normal, sometimes with a burning smell.
Noisy High-Voltage or Mechanical Component
Symptom
Microwave over-the-range vent fan or surface light does not work, but microwave heats normally.
OTR Accessory Function Failure
Symptom
Microwave runs (light and turntable on, fan running) but food does not heat at all.
No Heat – High-Voltage System Failure
Symptom
Microwave runs but makes a grinding or scraping noise from the turntable area.
Turntable Mechanical Noise
Symptom
Microwave runs for a few seconds then stops and resets or goes back to clock display.
Intermittent Power or Safety Cutout
Symptom
Microwave trips the household circuit breaker or blows a fuse when START is pressed.
Short Circuit Under Load
