No Heat Have a Sharp R-1492 microwave oven was heating up some rice and was working fine, cooking stopped,turntable stopped but timer kept counting down. When done tried to restart but only light would come on and timer worked no cooking at all. Also noticed microwave was very hot (to the touch). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Microwave was on, shut off without beeping. Checked it out, had kicked the gfi switch, reset it. Still won't work but everything else does. Even the timer starts counting down, turntable doesn't spin and microwave isn't kicking on.

This is probably due to a bad door switch, most likely the top one. The microwave got hot because the cooling fan was not running. 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 You can find helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your model number here: http://www3.sears.com/

Sainsbury's Microwave 131390011 Error My microwave started beeping every 60 seconds or so overnight, and displaying an error code that's very hard for me to Google! I'll post a picture in the next comment of this. A symbol that also looks like a little padlock is lit up, but googling this hasn't been very helpful - I definitely haven't accidentally child locked it! Unplugging it and plugging it back in works for a bit, but it then starts up again. If I turn the microwave on as soon as I plug it back in then it works fine, but I obviously don't want to do this if there's a genuine error that could affect safety. I don't have the manual - it's my landlord's microwave and she must have thrown it out, and I would love to sort this myself without having to spend ages on the phone to Sainsbury's trying to ask for help! Thank you in advance!
