As with most situations, it depends on the model number, but try this:

To set child lock:

1. Touch STOP/CLEAR pad.

2. Touch and hold 0 pad more than 4 seconds. LOCKED will appear in the display window and oven will beep twice.

To cancel child lock:

1. Touch and hold 0 pad for more than 4 seconds. LOCKED will disappear from the display and the oven will beep twice.

Hi and welcome to Fixya, I am Kelly. This is usually from the Child lock being activated: 1. Touch STOP/CLEAR.

2. Touch and hold START/ENTER more than 4 seconds.

LOCKED will disappear and two beeps will sound.

Thanks for choosing FixYa, Kelly

liquid probably has entered keypad laminate; causing a short. unplug unit, direct warm hairdryer to entire keypad; plug back in; and hope for the best. if no luck; replace keypad. also never spray anything directly onto keypad; always clean with a moistened towel with light force.

hi..
test the high voltage capacitor,the rectifier diode or the magnetron. If all this are fine, test the control board.

The diodeand capacitors can be tested. The capacitor must be allowed dischargebefore testing, or you risk to get electrocuted, even if power is off.Capacitors can get discharged by shorting their two contacts.
Before replacing the magnetron test also the control board.
Replace the magnetron if the checks and all of the high voltage component tests are good, but the unit still does not heat.



All locations, and description of this parts can be located using the diagram here: Counter top.

Parts must be tested to find out what is wrong.

Remember that microwaves are potentially dangerous devices if not repaired properly, the job must be done by a competent person.
A microwave energy leakage test must always be performed when the oven is serviced for any reason...

Since it's less than one year old, it would be fully covered under warranty.

I'd suggest returning it to the dealer or contacting the manufacturer to get it fixed free.

The fan will come on if you are cooking below and the area gets hot.... is this when it happens? Sometimes random beep could be a power blip... not long enough for a reset of all things electrical

First of all, microwave ovens do not emit ionizing radiation.

The only risk from any leakage is a burn.

Generally, microwave leakage only occurs when the door / door seal is loose or damaged or there has been an improper repair attempt.

You can select a model which lets you turn the beeper on and off by looking for that feature as you shop manufacturer Web sites, or in the store ask the clerk to pull the manual for you to examine, or contact the manufacturer's help center, support center, or FAQ.
