I have a Samsung MR5471G microwave that is stuck in a mode thae says POTCHIP . None of the buttons do anything. I unplugged it for an hour, but still in that mode. Also when I plug it back in the microwave starts on its own. The only way to stop it is open the door or unplug it.

Nothing comes up with that number. Read it from the tag on the machine.

Time to go microwave shopping. The part you need is most likely the control panel. The part will cost more than a new microwave. The control panel for that model is no longer available. That model machine has been discontinued.

Thank you, I kind of figured that might be the case, but thought there might be some way to get it re booted some how. Thanks for your help.
