Mend Sharp Microwave Heat Food

Sharp Jet Convection Microwave runs but doesn't heat?

Everything on my Sharp Jet Convection Microwave appears to be running but it doesn't heat the food. Is there a fuse that governs the microwave part of the oven which may have blown? If so, where is it located?

Hope you can help!

That's typically a bad door switch.

If you or a friend decide to work on it, we have *critical* safety and disassembly info at our site, as well as other specific troubleshooting information and help.

In my professional opinion, people should not work on a microwave unless they are fully informed and aware of the deadly hazards and necessary precautions.

You can find safety and disassembly text files (as well as a text file which helps in diagnosing and repairing door switch problems) at http://www.microwavedisplay.com

In the US, you can order parts for Sharp models from Tritronics at http://www.wehaveparts.com.

You can find wiring diagrams and parts lists and order parts for most other US brands from the Pros here: http://tinyurl.com/gv383.
