Whirlpool Smart Combo Oven/microwave (WOEC5027LZ00) keeps randomly restarting / bootlooping. Help!

Hey everyone,
The touch screen on my Whirlpool microwave/oven combo (model WOEC5027LZ00) keeps randomly restarting itself. Sometimes it does it while it’s just sitting there completely idle, and other times it cuts power and reboots right in the middle of cooking. It’s currently stuck in a boot loop.

I haven't connected it to Wi-Fi, so I can't use the Whirlpool app to push an update or run diagnostics.
I’ve tried flipping the circuit breaker off for over 10 minutes to give it a hard reset, but the second it powers back up, the bootlooping starts again.

Has anyone else dealt with this issue on this specific model or any of Whirlpool's newer touchscreen ovens? I'm trying to figure out if the touchscreen board itself is fried (maybe from oven steam?), if the main control board went bad, or if I'm looking at a loose wire in the wall junction box.

Any advice on how to fix this before I have to pay a tech a fortune to come look at it? Thanks in advance!

I am in desperate need to help! We started potty training my daughter (3 in June) over Christmas break. She was initially doing great and would poop in the potty 50% of the time. The last two months though have been terrible. She almost exclusively poops in her pants. Pee is typically ok, with only a few accidents here and there. We did sticker charts, and offer special treats and gifts if she poops on the potty and nothing is working. This weekend she pooped in her pants 4 times In less than 48 hours. Has anyone experienced anything like this and have any tips? I’m at my wits end. I don’t know what to do. Thanks in advance for any help ❤️
