Hi, I have a couple-year-old Sharp Carousel R1480 microwave. The electric

control panel works well. But I have push the door up every time to make

the microwave working. Any one knows the possible reason and how to fix it?



Thank you,



Terry

Yes, the interlocks are not for the door being closed...so much as forced closed with something (like a towel) jammed on one side. On our Panasonic there is one micro-switch on the top latch and two on the bottom. The one on the top looked overheated...and when removed it broke in-half. I had one (from repair days) and it is again salvage from the recycler.
