First diagnostic step

1. Disconnect power or unplug oven. 2. Check microwave sensor connection. 3. Measure sensor resistance: 280kΩ at 70°F (21°C), 1kΩ at 392°F (200°C). If resistance is not valid replace sensor. 4. If sensor resistance and connections are good, check for welded-closed relays on the control. If relay shorted, replace control.
