Many times, the owner's manual will have the installation instructions

SOURCE: Kenmore Microwave Hood Combination oven Model Service code (SE) ?
I have Microwave Kenmore model 401.80082700 about more than a year. After about 6 months, it stated to have some probles such as some number keys not working. Then button START become nor working some times. I can use only button of 30 secon increment to cook something. OK, the fan is working for most of the time but the levels are stuck, not adjustable. I can't changer the fan levels. Now the lamp buton is dead. Sometime, the fan level control is working by itself level 1, 2, 3.... then it appears -SE- on the display. nothing work now. I unplug.... then plug back, it ask to input the time or date... I can't do any thing. Later some time I can cook by using 30 secon button.... It is anoying. Please how I can fix it? Thank you.

what does f9 mean when it pops up on your microwave and power shuts off?

Here are a couple of quotes from another forum:
"Kenmore
Elite 36 " over tne counter microwave is supplied by LG made by Gold
Star, made in China. It's main problem is the high voltage inverter
board supplyed by Sears Parts. If you get a F-9 code on your microwave
display screen and the micro quits it's probably this board. Reset the
machine by pulling the power plug and waiting an hour. If it is the
high voltage board is at fault it will probably fail after 45 seconds
of start up. This part is really hard to get at but is less than $100.
A qualified technician should be able to remove and repair this item in
less than hour. Some techs will quote you $300 labor, don't buy it, it
should cost a $100 or less. No need to buy another microwave."
"F-9
on this microwave IS inverter related. There is a service tech
troubleshooting document stuffed in behind the control board cover
which has some testing proceedures. My problem was the magnatron and
checked out bad with the help of this document. It would run for a few
seconds making clicks and then say F-9. It has been working great since
I replaced the magnatron PN 6324w1a002c."
Note that part numbers mentioned may not for your model.
You can usually find
exploded views and order parts by entering your model number at the Sears
parts site.
BUT once you have the
part number from the Sears parts site, you can often get the parts
cheaper here
