I had the same problem on my model MV-1310B. I replaced the stirrer fan and it lasted about 5 years before ity began sparking again. I found that keeping it clean from spattered food reduced the occurrence. I am about to order a second one. :( I attribute it to a faulty finish that allows it to burn away over time.
Stirrers are designed to distribute the microwaves and were used before turntables were introduced. They are protected by a plastic cover in order to prevent food spatter from contacting stirrer. They are not powered and are insulated on nylon bushings. Where exactly is the arcing occurring?

Assuming that model is MV-1310B, that would be your stirrer fan cover, part number 3301W2A017A, which you can get from Encompass here or by calling toll-free at 866-779-5835.
If you need new clips / rivets for it, they are part number 4051W3A001A.

Unplug the microwave and try using a small pick to pull on the tab inside the socket a bit. Sometimes a replacement bulb like that is just a tiny bit shorter and will not make contact. Again, MAKE SURE IT IS UNPLUGGED FIRST!
