What this family is
This family covers the model numbers listed below and nothing beyond them. That single fact shapes all four problem classes below. These model numbers form a single run, and a fault found on one of them is worth checking on any of the others.
The problems these models actually have
- Everything works except the warmth — The owner checks are the door, the turntable and the supply; the rest is inside the case. Not Heating has its own page for these models — the step order lives there, not here.
- Dead or unresponsive — Split it first: the two cases share nothing. For the diagnosis itself, follow the Will Not Start or No Power page for the AM line, linked below.
- Sparking, tripping or burning smell — The two ordinary causes of arcing — foil and a damaged cover — are both visible and cheap. Where this goes next: the Electrical, Fire or Gas Hazard page for these models, linked under Related.
- A door that has to be forced — The door is part of the containment, not a cosmetic part, which is why this class is stricter than it looks. The ordered checks are on the Door, Latch or Seal Fault page written for the AM line.
Which problem comes up most, and why
- Loss of heat — Top of the list for the AM line. The owner checks — door, turntable, supply — are free but rarely the answer. This family carries no measured component share, so the order below is argued from how the platform is built and what it costs an owner — not counted.
- Start faults — Behind that one, and close to it. A dead display on a proved-live outlet is the version that is genuinely a fault.
- Arcing and trips — Behind those two. It ranks by consequence rather than by count: these symptoms take the machine out of use.
- Door, latch and alignment — The last of the four for the AM line. On a compact machine a door replacement is usually the end, which is why it sits where it does.

Ranked, not counted — no component share is recorded for this family
Documented| Problem class | Relative rank on this family | What the rank rests on |
|---|---|---|
| Heating failure | highest | it ends the machine's useful life |
| Will not start | second | how much of it is not a fault at all |
| Electrical warning signs | third | consequence rather than count |
| Door and seal faults | fourth | containment, judged strictly |
Owner work and technician work on this platform
The owner side on these models is short and honest: five things, all outside the case. Unplug the appliance or switch off its breaker before removing any panel; a capacitor can hold a charge after the power is off. Call the same day, and stop using the machine, for arcing, smoke, a burning smell or a machine that runs with the door open.
