# GE microwave error code F10

### What F10 means, in the maker’s own words

Shorted touch screen — the touch-screen equivalent of F3, on models with a screen rather than a membrane panel.

### Where this code actually appears

On the control panel, and usually with a sound. GE describes their refrigerator codes as flashing green on the display and typically accompanied by a beeping, and the range, microwave and dishwasher tables all describe codes you can read from the front of the appliance. That is the opposite of some makes, where the number is written into a hidden log and never shown — here, if something is wrong, the appliance generally tells you. Photograph what it says before cutting the power, because a reset erases it and the code is most of the diagnosis.

### What to do about it

- Clean the screen and check for moisture behind or around it.
- Clear power for a minute and restore.
- If parts of the screen no longer respond, the screen assembly is the repair.

### Where this goes next

The job this usually becomes is [microwave repair](/services/microwave-repair/), and every one of those pages carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. If it turns out to be nothing — and on this make a real share of these are modes rather than problems — the visit ends there and you pay the diagnostic and nothing else, or call [(305) 306-2503](tel:+13053062503) and describe what the display is doing before booking anything.
