Hello princLand, thank you for your post!

If your Frigidaire microwave (FMV157GC) has power but will not start, often the possibilities include one of four culprits:

Power Supply

Plugged into GFI Outlet

Faulty Control Panel

Faulty Magnetron

I always recommend resetting your microwave first before reaching out to a professional. You can do so by unplugging your appliance or flipping the circuit breaker for about ten minutes and then turn on your microwave.

Best of luck!
