2017 Hurricane 31s / Whirlpool Microwave Fan

[GIJOHN]

Hi,

Seeking feedback as to why our microwave fan wont shut off after pushing fan button on microwave control panel. We have a 2017 Hurricane (31s) with a Whirlpool convection oven/microwave.

I just went to lock up and noticed the fan was blowing very hot air and at a high speed (we have not used the microwave in a very long time and not at all today, model is a Whirlpool YWMH31017AB - 5.

Any assistance or feedback would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you

John
