Usually the spring inside the door has broken or come of the plastic tabs it is connected to. To fix requires you to take the door apart - not a job for amatures. If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/ronald_e6b9572cebe3ad27

This is a problem in one of the damper-related components, either the switch or motor or the damper door may be binding. The damper is a door inside that opens or closes depending on cooking mode. If the controller senses that the door is not in the right position, it will shut down the cook cycle. Sharp (and Sharp-made Dacor / Wolf) models stop after 59 seconds. See the attached sample drawing for a typical damper assembly. We have the applicable service manual here and the parts list here. If a switch is all you need, we offer a universal type for only $5 postpaid which you can order here. We're happy to help you with free advice and we'd appreciate your thoughtful rating of our answer.

We see (and repair) this a lot. The problem is on the control panel, which we regularly repair nationwide by mail for $39.95 postpaid.

try removing the outer cover and discharge the high voltage capacitor,then you can remove the ribbon cables and check for any corrosion and try wiggling them to burnish the contacts as any corrosion can block these small signals to the unit from the board,also make sure all grounds are tight and clean and inspect the board for any burned spots or damage as in circuit board cracks

Normally you have to separate the door panels (as shown in the attached photo) and then you'll see the previously hidden screws you need to remove.

Or you can watch a YouTube video (not a video I made) that demonstrates how it's done.

Sometimes you remove one handle screw, then gently rotate the handle to unlock it.

Of course this depends on your specific brand and model number.

You can find helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your full model number here.

If this does not answer it for you, please reply back with your brand and model number. Otherwise...

jamison665 was you using the microwave when this happened? Reason I ask is that all microwaves over the range have a temp sensor so if you are using the cooktop and don't have the vent fan on the OTR running, it will turn on the fan if it gets to hot. Once this cools off, the fan will quit running. When this happens, it is only the fan that is running. I think this may be it since the turntable will rotate when the mircowave cooking section is in use.

Question edited for clarity. Question moved from Misc to Dacor Microwave. It sounds like the magnetron has failed. https://www.fixya.com/support/r29874712-repairing_microwave_ovens ..

It could be an issue with the magnetron or high voltage diode, but I would need a bit more info to be sure. Feel free to e-mail me from my site, and include your full model number (or even better, a picture of the model tag) and include your detailed symptoms to let me know what's happening or not happening, and when it happens. - Ed Miller http://www.microwavecontrol.com

I would suggest not using it and having a qualified repair technician look at it. The lights flashing would concern me that there may be an electrical sorry or another electrical issue going on.

no, you may find used one on ebay
