Getting problem with sensor message. Can this be replaced by customer or need professional repair?
For model number PVM9179DK3BB
Hey Velma, thank you for your inquiry. We have researched your model and found that if you are facing a sensor message then it can be fixed by following three simple steps. First, turn it off, and check if the door is completely closed or not. Now, you may want to check if the Start button was accidentally pressed. Close the door, if open, then press "Start" immediately. If you still see the error even after opening and closing the door or pressing the button, you still have the option of resetting your microwave. Resetting the microwave will also solve this issue. We hope this helps!

Turned out the issue was easily solved by replacing a single, inexpensive fuse.
First off, UNPLUG THE MICROWAVE.
The fuse is located under the plastic grill at the top of the microwave. It's held on by two screws. Once you've removed the screws and taken off the plastic grill, you go to the right side of the microwave and remove another screw that holds a small metal grill in place. Removing the small metal grill is probably the toughest part of this repair. You kind of have to rock it back and forth a bit to get it to release. Once that's off, you can get to the fuse. I removed the burnt out one with a pair of needle nose pliers. I also put a small piece of cardboard under the fuse when I did this so I didn't accidentally drop it into the innards of the microwave. I did the same thing when I replaced the new fuse. I then plugged the appliance back in and made sure it worked. Once that was confirmed, I replaced both grills.
The unbelievable happened. Our glass carousel cooking tray developed a crack. Each day the crack got longer. I ordered a new one on Tuesday and it arrived the next morning just before the cracked one completely cracked. I have never experienced such fast service. I highly recommend PartSelect and their helpful service.
