How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the microwave before accessing the bottom panel.

  • Check settings: Some Haier models allow disabling the turntable. Verify in the user menu that the turntable is set to ON.
  • Inspect tray and ring: Remove the glass tray and roller ring. Clean them and the cavity floor. Replace any cracked or warped parts.
  • Check coupler: Ensure the plastic coupler is firmly seated on the motor shaft and not cracked.
  • Test motor: Run a short cook cycle with the tray removed and observe if the coupler turns. If not, the motor is likely faulty and should be replaced.
