01 - Glass Tray Support

If the microwave turntable is not turning the glass tray support could be broken or stripped out. Gently pull the support off the drive motor shaft to inspect the tray support for damage.

Highly Likely

02 - Turntable option turned off

When the microwave turntable turns, the food is cooked evenly. If the turntable stops turning there may be hot spots where the microwaves are concentrated in one area. If the turntable is not turning, confirm the turntable option is turned on (if applicable).

03 - Touchpad and Control Panel

The touchpad and control panel might be defective. However, the turntable motor is much more likely to be at fault. First, test the turntable motor. If the motor is not defective, it is possible that the touchpad and control panel are defective. To determine if the touchpad and control panel are defective, try pressing each of the buttons on the control panel. If some of the buttons respond correctly while others don’t, replace the touchpad and control panel.
