I would suggest unplugging the oven from the wall for a few minutes, then plugging it back in. If it still has a problem, you may need a new keypad, which can be had here: http://www.samsungparts.com/search/search.asp A bad keypad may be worn out due to age, damaged, or it may have gotten wet or otherwise contaminated. Moisture and contamination can be caused by not using the fan when boiling on the stove top (for over the range models), direct spraying of cleaners, by storing the microwave in an unheated garage or shed, or infestation. I warn my customers to never spray cleaner directly onto the microwave keypad, since the liquid can get inside and "lock up" or even ruin the keypad or controller.

My microwave oven appears to run normally but does not heat anything up. I was told it may be the magathon. Can this be easily replace and can I attempt this myself. Thanks
9 is the only number that works. It will beep every once and a while. It will not turn on.
Built-in GE Micorwave, model# JE1860BH04. 1 year old microwave has power but the fan does not work and it doesn't heat food or water. Light turns on inside and after setting the time, countdown begins but no sound.
