Sharp model R1380 - carousel does not work - Sharp R-1380 Microwave Oven

The service manuals you need to refer to for disassembly help and proper part numbers are here and here.

The turntable system typically consists of the motor, the coupler, the turntable support with rollers, and the tray.

Here is a video of how a turntable motor should sound when you rotate it by hand.

If yours is not set to be off via the control panel, and it won't rotate or it sounds like it's grinding, etc., you may have a bad motor or plastic coupler.

To replace either, you need to unplug power, then remove the bottom cover of the oven.
