I am getting an F3 error on my GE Microwave Model#JVM1640WJ03. I have tried turning off and back on the microwave but it just starts the error code again within seconds, none of the keys seems to do anything. I have read that this is a result of a shorted key pad which seems consistent with my problem, however i am confused, do i need a key pad, or the control panel behind the key pad? If you can point me in the right direction for what to order I am sure my hubby can figure out how to replace it! Thank You for your time and help!
