Quick answer

The gas sensor told the control board there is a problem; E11 covers over-the-range models.

Model note: Whirlpool reuses codes across series and model years, so E11 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Checklist

  1. Breaker off, 1 minute.
  2. Breaker on.
  3. Observe the unit for 1 minute.
  4. Run the microwave to verify it operates.
