I think it is time for a different microwave. Sounds like you may have some bad or worn capacitors, circuit board, or relays. The system will need to be fully tested to determine cause

If by "manual timer" you are referring to a knob that you turn to set the cook time, then you may have a failure of the motor that turns the timing mechanism, or a lack of power to it.
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.
