The
first thing I would suggest is a hard
reset. Unplug the unit for a
minute or so. Then plug it back in, set the clock and try again.
If that doesn't work,
leave it unplugged for about 5 minutes.
If it still fails, you have a failed membrane keypad.
On this model, the membrane keypad is not available as a separate part,
so you would have to order the control panel frame assembly which comes
with a new keypad.
In this case, you simply move your circuit board into the new frame.
That is a simple do-it-yourself job, and the part is very affordable.
It is part number 8205376 and you can get it from the Pros here.
You can find
helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your full
model number from the tag on the oven (as MH3184XPB0 with no dashes) here.
At
our Web site, we have a video
available showing how to remove a typical
over the range control panel assembly in under 5 minutes.
Then you unplug the keypad (as per the photo below) and move the circuit board into your frame.

Hey JT Tai, I appreciate your post!
The symbol at the top left hand side of your display could be child lock symbol or vent symbol. If it is the child lock you should be able to press and hold the stop/cancel button down for 3 seconds to release the child lock.
If the light is on for the vent I would seek assistance from a professional for proper diagnosis and repair to be completed on your microwave. I hope this is helpful. -Matt
The lock button activates/deactivates the Keylock or the Childlock functions. This button has either a key or a padlock icon. I believe that on this model it is a padlock
Keylock
The Keylock feature disables all the buttons on the control panel.
To activate, press and hold the button until you hear one beep (3 seconds). The symbol
appears in the electronic display when the Keylock feature is activated.
Childlock
The Childlock feature locks the drawer and disables all the buttons on the control panel.
To activate, press and hold the button until you hear two beeps (5 seconds). The symbol
appears in the electronic display when the Childlock feature is activated.
To cancel the Childlock feature, press and hold the button until you hear one beep and the
symbol disappears from the electronic display.
This information can also be found in your product's Use and Care manual. If yours has been misplaced you can download or print one from Fisher and Paykel's website. http://www.fisherpaykel.com/customercare/userguide/index.cfm
If this doesn't work... And I've seen these units do some odd things. Try unplugging it for about an hour (if plug is not under sink you can turn of the breaker that powers the unit). Then plug it back in and see if that works. These dishwasher like many modern day appliances have solid state microprocessors in them which sometimes need reset just like a computer.
Hope this helps.
