It works sometimes and then the F3 or F4 comes on the display and beeps, when that happen the microwave does not work at all. Then I unplug it for a while and its works once or twice and the something happens again.
SOURCE: Hotpoint RVM1425 Microwave Oven IT BEEPS, SHOWS F3 OR F4
F3 on a GE / Hotpoint
microwave means you have a shorting membrane keypad.
If and when an oven is coming on or doing anything by itself, this is very dangerous and can result in a fire.
So until it is repaired,
please leave it unplugged or leave the door
open when it's not in use, and please do not leave it running
unattended.
If you (or someone you
know) might want to replace it yourself, I have uploaded a handy guide with pictures showing you what's typically
involved.
You can find
helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your full
model number here.
There
should also be a "mini-manual" hidden inside the unit behind the
control panel or hidden on the left side behind the grille, which is
very
helpful
when troubleshooting & testing.
At
our Web site, we have a video
available showing how to remove a typical
over the range control panel assembly in under 5 minutes.
If you would like to
have us do this repair for you, we do that for $39.95 plus part costs.
Feel free to contact me directly (and please remind me of your
full model number from the tag on the unit) for more information & help.
We're
happy to help you with free advice and we'd appreciate your thoughtful
rating of our answer.
