  If your GE Microwave Oven won't start, there are several possible causes: * A fuse in your home may be blown, or the circuit breaker tripped. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. * There might have been a power surge. Unplug the microwave oven, then plug it back in. * The plug may not be fully inserted into the wall outlet. Ensure the 3-prong plug on the oven is fully inserted. * The door may not be securely closed. Open the door and close it securely.

  If “SENSOR ERROR” appears while using a Sensor feature on your GE Microwave Oven, it might be because the door was opened before steam was detected. Avoid opening the door until steam is sensed and the time counts down on the display. Alternatively, use Time Cook to heat for a longer duration.

  If “SENSOR ERROR” appears on the display when using a Sensor feature, it could be due to these reasons: * The door was opened before steam could be detected. Do not open the door until steam is sensed and time is shown counting down on the display. * Steam was not detected in the maximum amount of time. Use Time Cook to heat for a longer duration.

Why is my GE JNM6171DFBB beeping with an unusual, low-tone?
- K
  Kelsey PetersonSep 12, 2025
  An unusual, low-tone beep from your GE Microwave Oven can indicate a couple of things: * You may have tried to start the Reminder without entering a valid time of day. Start over and enter a valid time. * You may have tried to change the power level when it's not allowed. Many of the oven’s features are preset and cannot be changed.
