Open the unit. On top where mains come in would be a big fuse normally 10amp , its blown. This is almost always caused by faulty door switches. Also check diode from the big cap to earth. be careful the cap can store high voltages even when unit is off.Discharge capacitor first with a wire to earth.Make sure the unit is off.The fuse will also blow if that diode is blown.they usually go short circuit.
Sometimes there are fuses inside, but there are also high voltage capacitors that will hold power even with the unit unplugged. If you haven't worked on one before, it's best to leave this one to the pros.

Pull the control panel and check for a blown fuse. If the fuses are good, it's probably the panel or even worse the magnatron (too expensive to repair in most cases, just cheaper to replace the microwave). Good luck.
