Hi, I have a Maytag MMV5207BCS. When i plug it in, it asks to enter the time but buttons on the key pad do not respond. Then i get an SE error. It happened in the past but unplugging on/off fixed it.

same thing as Samsung - shorted key - google manual

Hi,

My research came up with a shorted keypad (shorted key). The part number I came up with was W10258190 this is for stainless. I hope this information helped. Good Luck

Hi ssullivan013 - Here are some generics instructions that I found for the model number posted above. Hope the information is helpful.

Suppose you want to enter the correct time of day 12:30 (A.M or P.M.).

1. Touch Clock pad.

2. Enter time 1,2,3,0 and press CLOCK pad again

This is a 12 hour clock. If you attempt to enter an incorrect clock timer, ERROR will appear in the display. Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad and re-enter the time.

"SE" error means you have a shorted membrane keypad.

You would need to have either the membrane keypad itself replaced, or the control panel frame assembly which comes with a new keypad, or the whole controller.

Part numbers and prices will of course depend on the model number.

"SE" means you have a shorting membrane keypad.

If I knew the full model number of your oven, I could give you advice.

Feel free to ask here.

Hello

Check the power supply. Make sure the microwave is firmly plugged into a working electrical outlet and that your wall outlet is active if your home uses outlets controlled by a wall switch. Check your home's fuses or circuit breakers to ensure they have not been tripped. Without power the microwave will not respond to any input.


Make sure the parental lock is inactive. Some ovens, like the one shown in the image above, feature a keypad lock to prevent children playing with the controls. Most keypad locks can be cancelled by holding down a button or combination of buttons for a few seconds.


Make sure the door is firmly closed. Some microwave ovens will not allow any control panel input if the door is open.


Remove the microwave from the power, wait 10 seconds, then plug it back in. This will reset the microwave oven if there is a temporary problem with the software.


Press the "Stop/Cancel" button several times to cancel the current operation and return the microwave to standby mode. Re-enter your cooking instructions using the keypad as usual.

Hi maaki41,

The error code SE stands for a keypad is held down for longer than 10 seconds. If you were not holding down a button then you have a defective key pad because of the sensor error. You may contact Sears for the replacement part at 1-800-252-1698; M-F 6:30 AM-10:30 PM - Sat 7:00 AM-9:30 PM - Sun 7:30 AM-9:30 PM - All times Central.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for using FixYa.

mmv5207ba/bc microwave 0 button fan on button does not work all other key pad buttons seem to work

The 401 in the model number is the model prefix for Samsung, who manufactured the oven.

SE error means you have a shorted membrane keypad.

If and when an oven is coming on or doing anything by itself, this is very dangerous and can result in a fire.

So until it is repaired, please leave it unplugged or leave the door open when it's not in use, and of course one should never leave a microwave unattended while cooking.

I would need the rest of the model number from the tag to help you more.

A full Sears/Kenmore model number has 3 digits, a dot, then 8 more digits, such as ###.########
