It's probably a bad door switch or door switch mount.
Even though a door switch clicks, it may still be bad inside. Its continuity must be checked.
Door switch
or mount trouble can be caused by slamming the door or by opening the
door while it's cooking without hitting the Stop pad first.
There are
plastic mounts inside the microwave which hold the door switches and
onto which the door latches lock when you close the door.
The screws on these mounts may be loose. If they get too loose, the switches will not be activated properly.
Sometimes it's
a broken tab on the switch holder, allowing the switch to rotate just
out of position. This tab can be hard to see, since it is under the
bottom edge of the switch.

Model 1501BQ Sept 03 serial #309TA tray turns, lights come on, fan won't work and no heat i have an ohm meter and have checked the switches they seem to work except the middle one does not seem to change when I ohm it. Can i just put these two wires together off of the switch and see if it works to verify the switch.
Thanks for any help.
