Possible Causes

Recent power outage, tripped breaker, loose power cord connection, faulty outlet, intermittent house wiring, internal line filter board issue

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: If you suspect wiring issues, turn off power at the breaker and consult an electrician.

  • Confirm power stability: Check if other appliances or lights in the home flicker or reset, indicating a broader power issue.
  • Check outlet and cord: Ensure the Monogram microwave's plug is fully inserted and the outlet is not loose. Test the outlet with another appliance.
  • Reset the unit: Clear the PF code by pressing Clear/Off (or equivalent) and reprogram the clock.
  • Dedicated circuit: Verify the microwave is on a dedicated 120V or 240V circuit as specified by Monogram. Overloaded circuits can cause intermittent power loss.
  • Internal checks: If PF appears frequently without household power issues, the internal line filter / noise filter board or electronic control board may be failing and should be inspected and replaced by a technician.
