1. Open leverCheck your microwave lever to determine if it is damaged. If it is broken, simply replace the lever to get your microwave door fully functional again.
2. Door springResponsible for keeping downward pressure on the door hook, the microwave door spring can begin to malfunction. If this part is broken and prevents you from opening your microwave door, replacement is necessary.
3. Door latchOne reason your microwave door may not open properly is a broken door latch. Located inside the microwave, the door latch manipulates the door hook to keep the door closed for safety and top performance. If broken, the door could become stuck in the locked position.
4. Door hookIf your microwave door will not release properly, the door hook could be damaged. Located inside the door, the door hook is made of plastic and prone to breakage with extended use or age. As this part is unable to be repaired, the only option is to replace it.
5. Button or button springIf the microwave door will not open, it could be an internal failure of the button or button spring. If it is determined that either of these parts is the source, both are replaceable and it is recommended that they be installed at the same time.
6. Handle actuatorIf the microwave door will not open the plastic handle actuator could be broken. Connected between the door button and the door latch assembly, this plastic part could become damaged and brittle over time, which makes breaking inevitable. If this occurs, replace the handle actuator to get your microwave fully functional again.

Hello Arold - Typically, error code SE indicates a shorted keypad. Try resetting the microwave by unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker off. This usually clears most false error codes. Wait approximately ten minutes and if the error code does not clear, I would recommend contacting a professional to proceed further. Most likely the touch keypad on the unit will need replacing.

Hi sjwebb521 - Honestly without the unit being accurately diagnosis they are multiple possibilities. However, since the microwave is no longer operational, it sounds like either the main control board has blown or wiring failure. If I was in your position, I would strongly recommend consulting a certified technician to narrow down the prices issue before investing in parts that may or may not be the root cause. You can often locate a qualified service provider through the manufacturer website.

you must test the hooks and door release button for broken, if this are the switch internal will not close for START the microwave see the diagram attached. God bless you

Select "User Pref" upper right corner of keypad, then select from menu "Clock" (item 5), then enter time, select "Start" - you are have just set the clock for Frigidaire FGMV174KFB

The problem is in the keypad control board or the smart board.

Hello & Welcome to FixYaSE or 5E means shorted keypad and to solve this problem the keypad needs replacement, if it has already been replaced then it is better to replace the ribbon cable connecting the board. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.Kevin

Hi, check the support rollers that the turntable is supported on, they may be stuck or catching on their bearings. remove the turntable and see if the noise is still there when you switch the turntable on. If it is the motor needs to be replaced.
There is a panel under the microwave, held on by one or more screws. Remove it and you will see the synchronous motor inside. There should be a plug to disconnect the wires. Remove the motor and fit a new one. Ensure that the microwave is disconnected from the wall outlet before attempting any work on it.

The symptoms of loud noise and no heat indicate a short in the magnetron or high voltage diode. Need to take it to a qualified repair, to figure out what the problem. The magnetron replacement can cost as much as a new oven. See what the warranty covers, maybe you might luck out.

My 2021 Frigidaire also turned on by itself 2 days ago. It also got hot and would not turn off except at the breaker. After 10 minutes I turned breaker on and the microwave was still on. Turned breaker on the next morning and all good. We are afraid to leave house unless we turn breaker off. Any suggestions? Do I need a new microwave?

I would check the door switches.

The control board probably has failed.

fuses inside oven, sure. (i had to guess) all UWAVE do that when the 3 or 4 door switches CONTRADICT. this is so it does no cook a persons eyeballs.(no really ) what we do is replace them all as a set, 4x5=$20 set. I am on my 3rd set here, ( 18 year span) so i even bought a new whole spare fuse panel (behind the controller) with new switch set pre loaded.all -in- one fix. then when it fails i can replace it all in 30min flat. mine is built in fancy uwave and do not want top put in any alien Uwave here and now wood cabinets must be modified. see? good luck,
