Not Heating, Display Reads F7
Our Gold Series microwave, model # GH5184XPB-4 suddenly began displaying F7. It won't heat, shuts off, and says F7. We are unable to use it. It was purchased in the fall of 2007. Is this an easy, inexpensive fix?

I have this issue too. It may sound stupid, but does this happen when the unit is really cold... like in the winter and early morning? Mine is an over-the-stove unit and warming up the microwave with the gas stove makes it work. Open the door too to warm the innards. Forget Whirlpool Factory repair. They are morons who farm this stuff out to incompetants. Hope this works for you.
