Quite often this is due to a bad door switch. Opening the door while cooking (without first hitting the STOP pad) is the primary cause of door switch failure.
If you or a friend decide to work on it, we have *critical* safety, disassembly, and troubleshooting info (as well as a text file which helps in diagnosing and repairing door switch problems) at our site, which is linked at our listing here on FixYa: http://tinyurl.com/yzjozk
We also have the complete service manual for this model at our site.

Panasonic s550bf Door Latch
Do you still have the piece that broke off? If so, you may be able to use two part epoxy to glue it back in place. I did this with a colaric MW and it did the trick. The latch was hook shaped and made from a hard plastic.

Roper Microwave fan won't shut off
THE FAN AND MICROWAVE TUBE RUN OFF THE ELECTRONIC TIMER. OPENING THE DOOR SHOULD SHUT IT ALL DOWN AND WHEN YOU CLOSE THE DOOR AGAIN YOU SHOULD NEED TO PRESS THE START BUTTON AGAIN. IF NOT, ITS SOUNDS LIKE AN ELECTRONIC RELAY IS LOCKED CLOSED ON THE TIMER BOARD.

Door Removal Sharp Microwave Model R-1611
The door comes off in a very simple way. Now...I'm speaking from the perspective of MOST microwave ovens. All you should have to do is open the door all the way to the left and lift straight up. The door has mounting pins that fit into a couple of hinge pin holes. If your oven is equipped with an upper panel grid, you may have to remove it, so the door will have more clearance. Putting the new door on is just as simple as lining up the pins in the door with the hinge pin holes and setting the door in place. Close the door slowly to make sure the pins are aligned with the holes properly. If not, the door will fall off while attempting to close. Let me know if this is helpful to you.

Directions to remove and open door panel to repair safety door latch.
You don't have to remove door to remove panel.
Panel is held in by an outer plastic retainer which can be removed by carefully prying with a small screwdriver. I can be replaced by pushing it back in place after repair is completed.
If you cannot open door from the outside, remove cover and you can see latches. Pry up on latch which will let door open.

It could be the turntable motor, the turntable support (with built-in coupler) or a problem on the control board.
I would first look at the 3-legged turntable support with built-in coupler to see if it got hot and warped. It should be flat across the top from the center to the end of the legs.
If the support's legs are pointing a bit downward, it will prevent the coupler from making contact with the motor shaft.
I've held bent ones a few inches over a gas burner to heat them up where the legs meet the center hub, then set something a bit heavy on it to hold it in place while it cools.
If it needs a new one, it is part # FROLPB025MRK0 and it runs $19.50 retail at Tritronics.
A quick (but not necessarily definitive) test of the motor is to grab the shaft gently with pliers and gently try to turn it.
If it moves slowly and makes a high-pitched whining noise, it's likely okay. If it won't turn or grinds, it is bad.
The number for the new turntable motor is RMOTDA264WRZZ and it retails for $8.87.
Please note that you may need to look under model R1600, R1600, R1601, R1601, R1610, or R1612. They are all mostly the same.
Tritronics is at http://www.wehaveparts.com
The service manual for the R1610, R1611, R1612 can be downloaded at: http://www.microwavedisplay.com/R1610.pdf
There may be a grommet bewteen the mtoro and turntable support. Don't lose that! Be safe!

Hood lights will not dim or turn off
The problem is damage to the control circuit board.
This damage happens usually when the lamps are removed or installed without disconnecting the oven from the power line first.

We have an important file called "safety.txt" which you can find by a doing a search for "microwave safety.txt" on Yahoo.com.

How do I perform a soft reset on my SHARP R270S microwave?
When I push Start and Clock, the display shows 1303
Most microwave ovens now use a similar method for setting the time on the front. Many different kitchen counter appliances like microwave ovens are made by the same manufacturers and sold under different brand names or with similar parts and designs. Microwaves, coffee makers, air fryers, convection ovens and even some toaster ovens have clocks on them these days and trying to set all the clocks during Daylight Saving Time can be a hassle. Fortunately, most of these kitchen appliances have adopted a general method for changing and setting the time: The Clock Button! If your device has a Clock button you typically only have to hit it once or hold it in, either type in the new time or advance up or down to the new time on the display, and then press the Clock or Start button to save your changes and get your out of "time changing" mode. Many other small appliances are following this same methodology. It's quick and easy!
