Rubbing alcohol was spilled down back of GE
Alcohol evaporates. Put a few drops of alcohol in a paper cup and leave it overnight. It should be gone in less than a day. A year should evaporate a lot of alcohol. If you want to be extra safe and you're tech-savvy, open the case carefully and look for moisture. Otherwise, plug it in somewhere relatively safe and try it (fire extinguisher Class C or ABC handy. -- You need an BC in the kitchen anyway.

My GE microwave is beeping and the display says F3
F3 on a GE / Hotpoint
microwave means you have a shorted membrane keypad.
We would need your model number to give you more specific info, part ordering info, and en estimate if needed.
Simply contact me here with your model number and symptoms for free help.
On some models, the membrane keypad is peeled off and a new one stuck on.
In other models, the plastic frame must be replaced, and it comes with a keypad already installed.
Keypad does not work after steam hits it
I always recommend
that you use the vent fan whenever you're cooking on the stove
top to keep heat, steam, and
grease out of the controls and door panels.
If it does not dry out
over time, it may need to be manually dried or blown out.
The keypad may be
damaged or worn out, or control unit may be damaged.
Keypad failure can cause it to come on by itself, which can lead to a fire.
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.
