F3 on a GE / Hotpoint
microwave means you have a shorted membrane keypad (aka membrane switch).
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 of course one should never leave a microwave unattended while cooking.
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 be a "mini-manual" (tech sheet) hidden inside the unit
behind the
control panel or hidden on the left side behind the grille, which is
very helpful when troubleshooting, testing, and locating
components.
If you would like to
have us
do this repair for you, we do that for $39.95 plus part costs nationwide.
Either way, we can let
you know what your options and costs would be and send you other
helpful info.
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.
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.
