Panasonic Microwave U65 error code

Difficulty: Hard · Cost: $100–$300 · Duration: Requires professional service

The U65 error means your Panasonic microwave was shut down by the magnetron thermistor because the magnetron reached a dangerously high temperature. The magnetron thermistor monitors the heat of the magnetron tube and triggers a protective shutdown when it exceeds safe limits. Stop using the microwave and contact a qualified technician as this indicates a serious fault with the magnetron or its cooling.

Common causes

Magnetron has overheated due to a fault or failure
Magnetron thermistor detected an out-of-range temperature and triggered the shutdown
Cooling system for the magnetron is not operating correctly
