Possible Causes
Failed turntable motor, Broken or stripped turntable coupler, Obstruction under turntable, Faulty turntable position sensor (if equipped)
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the microwave before handling the turntable components.
User checks:
- Remove the glass tray and roller ring. Clean both and the cavity floor to remove food debris.
- Inspect the plastic coupler that fits over the turntable motor shaft for cracks or damage.
- Reinstall the roller ring and tray, ensuring they are seated correctly.
- Restore power and test. If the tray still does not rotate and E16 appears, the motor or sensor may be faulty.
Service recommendation:
- Turntable motor replacement on Wolf microwaves typically requires access from the bottom and involves live wiring.
- Have a qualified technician replace the turntable motor and coupler if needed.
