From my research, this sounds like a fairly new model. Consult your user's manual to see if this is a user, or common issue. If nothing is descibed then I would seek possible warranty service, or dealer replacement

SOURCE: Panasonic Model NN T964SF inverter

If the digital programmer circuit / controller does not get a feedback signal from the inverter for a period of 3 seconds, the controller will stop the cook cycle.

In most cases, this is a problem with the inverter or a bad magnetron.

Due to the lethal voltages used and produced, I do not recommend that an inexperienced person work on these.

I would recommend that you contact your nearest Panasonic-authorized servicer.

Your temperature sensor inside on the microwave need to rreplace. It maybe dirty or faulty. Bring your microwave to electronics technician to check it.

If the oven is heting and turntable not turning, then the problem is either the turntable coupler or the turntable motor.

The faulty part must be checked and replaced.

SOURCE: Panasonic microwave model NN-2959: can't open door.

Your DOOR LEVER probably is broken. To open the door remove the filter (2 screws at the top) then remore the control panel by removing the screw holding it in place UNPLUG THE MACHINE. then unlatch the door. BUT I am trying to find a door lever and find they are no longer availabel.

Microwave power off, but will flicker when door shuts

Please inspect the plastic latches that should actuate the door switches. Sounds like you may have broken one when slamming the door too hard

My r-1874 microwave unit will not run unless a small wood handle is put under the door. This has worked in the past but now this little trick does not work. Any idea the part that not working properly

I would say the mount for your bottom or top door switch is loose, misaligned, or broken. And you may have a failed door as well. See my help file on door switches here.

Slamming the door and opening the door while it's cooking instead of hitting the "Stop" pad before opening it both contribute to door switch trouble.

The service manuals covering this model are here and here.

I would check the door switches for a faulty switch. If it were condensation on the control panel. I would think it would have dried out by now unless it has damaged the control board.

The problem is in one of the door switches, "it is defective" this is a highly dangerous situation and should be checked immediately, the microwave oven should unplugged until a appliance repairman looks at it.

Microwave not cooking

This is usually caused by either a bad door switch, a loose door switch mount (which are pretty simple problems to fix) or occasionally a problem on the control panel.

Even though a door switch clicks, it may still be bad inside.

Door switch or mount trouble can be caused by slamming the door or by opening the door while it's cooking without hitting the Stop pad first.

There are plastic mounts inside the microwave which hold the door switches and onto which the door latches lock when you close the door.

The screws on these mounts may be loose. If they get too loose, the switches will not be activated properly.

Sometimes it's a broken tab on the switch holder, allowing the switch to rotate just out of position. This tab can be hard to see, since it is under the bottom edge of the switch.

GE spacemaker Profile XL1800 vent fan will not shut off

It may be a bad door switch, a loose door switch mount, or a problem on the control panel, such as a sticky relay.

I would suspect a sticky relay first, but the door switches should be checked.
