Possible Causes

Child lock engaged, Control board misreading door status, Software glitch, Door switch misalignment

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Ensure the unit is plugged into a grounded outlet.

  • Disable child lock: On many Samsung models, press and hold the STOP/CANCEL or START button for 3–5 seconds until the lock icon disappears. Refer to your user manual for the exact key combination.
  • Power reset: Unplug the microwave for 5–10 minutes, then reconnect and check if C-d0 clears.
  • Check door: Open and close the door firmly several times to ensure the switches actuate properly.
  • Service: If the code persists and the child lock is definitely off, the door switch circuit or control board may require professional diagnosis.
