Seems like your primary switch isn't closed correctly or it might bad.
step to trouble shoot
OVEN HAS 5000 VOLTS MOVING INTO IT PLEASE BE CAREFULL
1.press back key to turn off the oven.
2.Open left side pannel.
3.press 'back' and 'enter' key together.Then, enter 9428 and then press enter.
4.You will be directing to an testing screen.At the bottom of thetesting screen there are many alphabets.In which you can see 'P' ,'S' and 'M' .
5.Open the door and watch what happened to alphabet 'P'.I meant to say that when door open alphabet will highlited ,and when closed its seems an regular 'P'
6.open door and close the door .And also keep an eye on the primary switch at the top left corner of the oven where the door latches engaged.If it engaged very nicely and you still see an highlited 'P' in the testing screen then REPLACE THE PRIMARY SWITCH OR IF SWITCH IS OKAY THEN CHEK THE WIRING UPTO MAIN BOARD.
7.If switch doesn't latches properly then adjust switch ,by lossning the screw and aligned it properly.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU KNOW HOW TO USE MULTIMETER,SO I CAN EXPLAIN YOU HOW TO CHECK THE SWITCH.
ALSO PLEASE RATE MY ANSWER.
THANKS

Fault code Close door (S) keeps coming and oven won't start

The oven is telling you that the secondary switch is not working. Either the switch is broken or the door or switches are out of alignment. the switches cost about 4 dollars. Not an expensive repair by any means.

This option is only for the people whose primary switch is okay.(Anyone who know how to use multimeter can reply me for solution dealing with electrical system
There are two things you have to do.
1. Door alignment.
Sometimes the door gets mis aligned due to excessive use of oven......because people smack the oven door alot.
FOR ALIGNMENT
MAKE SURE YOU TURN OFF OVEN AND DISCHARGED CAPACITORS.(IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO DISCHARGE THEN REMOVE THE OVEN PLUG AND WAIT FOR 1 HRS TO DESCHARGE CAPACITORS
1. Remove right side pannel
2. remove all the wires and cables that are connected to controle board which are comming from the controle pannel(the pannel that has display and buttons ).
3. There are two nut (9mm or 10mm) that you have to remove to take apart the front control pannel.
4. Once you remove the pannel, put it aside.
5. Now take out all 4 black caps from the oven door.
6. Ready for alignment
7. Lose all four bolts just give 2 turns to lose(don't lose too much).
8. Tap door at the center and then hold it with one end.Use other hand to tighten the bolts.
Now your door is aligned.
Reinstallation is reverse of removal.
SECOND THING
1. open the left side pannel
2. At the top where the door latches .There is an primary switch which needs to be adjusted.
3. loosen the switch and then retighten by aligning it in correct way.

Thanks

Door does not close all the way

I recommend that you have a factory certified tech look at your oven door. It keeps the microwaves back from hurting the people working around the oven. Its just to dangerous to explain it, in case you get it wrong. Also, the door switches usually require adjusting at the same time.

It seems something holding the door to shut all the way the upper latch does not go in all the way.

The door does not close all the way and the latch is not supposed to go in all the way. If you are not getting any error messages, don't worry about it. Try the dollar bill test. Close the door on a dollar bill and then pull the dollar out. you should feel some resistance, if not the door is miss-aligned. Fixing the oven door should only be done by a factory certified tech because

The oven door provides three primary functions:
1. To protect the operator from the hot
convection airflow.
2. To protect the operator from exposure to
microwave energy.
3. To actuate the interlock switches.

F3 Mag Curr. on Turbochef Tornado

Hello. Interesting coincidence, but that error code is for the magnetron/microwave part of the toaster. You will need to have it serviced by someone familiar with the unit, it could be easy and reasonable, if just a fuse blew, but not likely. If the fuse blew, it is 20amps, so something took it out. Call turbo chef, they will get you to the closest servicer, may be able to help you on the phone.
