Maytag MMV4205BAQ does not start. I can enter the time, power level, etc. but when it is time to press the start button nothing happens. Also, the interior light does not turn on and I no longer hear the beeps associated with pressing the buttons.

Press the Power button several times until the desired power level is reached. Each press of the Power button will reduce the power level by 10%. Using 40% power requires pressing the Power keypad 7 times. After setting the power level, then you can enter the cooking time by pressing the number buttons. Then press Start.
This is shown in the manual which is available at Manuals Lib, https://www.manualslib.com/products/Magic-Chef-Mcb1110w-272833.html . See page 8 to see the positions of the Power keypad; it's to the left of the number keys. Page 9 has a chart with the power level per press of the Power button. See page 12 for the single stage cooking procedure.
For simple, one-stage cooking, you only need to set the cooking time. The power level is automatically set to High.
If you want to set the power level to any other level, use the Power Level button.
1. Use the number buttons to set a cooking time. You can enter a time from one second to 99 minutes and 99 seconds. To select a time greater than one minute, enter the seconds too. (For example, to set a cooking time of 20 minutes, enter 2, 0, 0, 0.)
2. If you want to set the power level to a level other than High, press the Power Level button, and then use the number buttons to enter the power level.
3. Press the ENTER/START button to begin cooking. If you want to change the power level, press the STOP/ CLEAR button before you press the ENTER/START button, and then enter all the instructions again.
Enter the cooking time. Press the Power Level button until the desired level is displayed - Level 1 = 100%, Level 2 = 90%, ... Level 10 = 10%.). Press Start button.
You may have to enter a value with the number keys.
A 5 might give you 50% power or you might have to enter 50.
It all depends on the manufacturer's program. I'm not familiar with this model.
If when you press the start button the turntable starts but no heat then magnetron is faulty otherwise if nothing happens then the touchpad itself is faulty.
if microwave is counting down but no heat you either have a loose connection at the magnatron tube or the thermal cut out fuse that is connected to the magnatron has blown or you have a micro switch, that has failed
Assuming its the same as my Hamilton Beach, you first enter the cooking time, but don't press start yet, instead press power, then a number button 1 - 9 for the power level 1 for 10%, 2 for 20% etc. THEN press start as normal
Press "Power" until you get to the level you want. Then enter the # of minutes on the keypad (CANNOT use express cook times.) An alternating runnig hum will let you know the setting is working.
Hi! I just purchased the same microwave, and came online to find the solution. I was then able to find the correct answer to this problem. On this model, Emerson does not put a "time cook" button for odd cook times such as 15 seconds. Instead, they have you push the "Power Button" prior to setting the cook time.
If you want to cook on full power, press the power button once, and then enter your cooking time and press start. If you want to cook on 50% power or 30% power or something like that, push the "Power Button" several times until the appropriate power level is displayed, then enter the cook time and press start.
The reason that it starts up right away when *********** pushes the 1 button is because Emerson has the quick cooking feature for 1 minute through 6 minutes. You only have to push the number once to get the 1 minute cook time or anywhere through 6 minutes respectively.
