Possible Causes

Defective inverter board, Shorted or open magnetron, Faulty high-voltage transformer (on non-inverter models)

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety Warning: The high-voltage section of a microwave is extremely dangerous. Do not remove the cover or attempt internal repairs unless you are properly trained.

What you can do:

  • Reset the unit: Unplug for 5–10 minutes, then plug back in and test with a cup of water.
  • Check ventilation: Ensure the microwave is not built into a tight space without proper airflow. Overheating can trigger protection codes.
  • Listen for abnormal sounds: If you hear loud buzzing or arcing before H95 appears, stop using the microwave immediately.

When to seek service:

  • If H95 returns after a reset, the inverter, magnetron, or transformer is likely faulty.
  • Contact a professional technician; these components require specialized tools and safety procedures to replace.
