Chances are that is just a defective top or bottom door switch or its mount. See our help file on door switches here. Also, that model number does not show up as a valid US Kenmore model. Please check the tag in the cooking cavity or elsewhere n the oven and let us know if you need further help.
The heating issue is related to the high voltage fuse and the magnatron assembly as well as checking the high voltage cao and the protective diode if the unit has one. As for the spinning dish u neeed to make sure the voltage of the new motor is the same as the old one. otherwise u may have issues with the motor not being able to spin efficiently. Good luck.
If the housing of the unit isn't too difficult to remove (normally 3-5 Phillips screws around the rear edge), with the unit unplugged of course, check for a user replaceable fuse inside.
The magnetron is separately fused and fuses can fail due to metal fatigue.
It will be high amperage; 10-20 amperes and many hardware stores will have them.
BTW, there is no residual radiation from a magnetron that isn't operating.
