I pull the plug from the power outlet for at least 1 minute but that did not help. Does any one have any idea what the problem is ?

After 40 seconds, check to see whether this solves the problem. (Possible reason: Over temperature protection for the magnetron opened.) 3. Check resistance of the magnetron thermostat. It should be close to 0 ohms. 4. Check the magnetron. 5. Check wiring to the 1100W inverter and control system. 6. Check operation of all interlock switches. 7. If switches operate correctly: Replace 1100W inverter. If problem persists, replace power supply board. 8. Plug in microwave oven or reconnect power. Hope this helps.
