If you are getting an F-5 error code on your Kenmore hood combination, it typically indicates a problem with the temperature sensor. This error code may occur when you are trying to use the convection feature, as you have described.
To troubleshoot this issue, try the following steps:
Turn off the power to the unit and unplug it from the electrical outlet.
Wait a few minutes, then plug the unit back in and turn on the power.
Try using the convection feature again and see if the error code reappears.
If the error code persists, you may need to replace the temperature sensor. You can consult the user manual for your Kenmore hood combination or contact Kenmore customer service for assistance with this.
If the unit is still under warranty, it's recommended to contact Kenmore customer service for repair or replacement options.

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.
I would need the rest of the model number from the tag to help you more.

sounds like a panel issue for sure. if the microwave is over 5 yrs old I would recommend replacing it newer microwaves use far less power than before. and they are not too expensive
We have had NEFF repair man out again and he replaced the door switchs and this time it is OK.He did say if it was a problem again it will be classed as unrepairable because he thinks it is shorting out on an internal rivet on the bodywork which is inaccesable. fingers crossed it was the door switchs and it dosent blow the main fuse again .thanks for your responce.
