The fan started turning itself on and off. A few days later, the time of day cleared. When I would reset it, it would clear itself again. Finally, I turned on the microwave and it would run for 3-4 seconds, then shut completely off.

my guess would be the wave cover. sometimes they smoke and makes sparking sounds. does it still heat food?...if it does, then its not the magnetron.

The fan you hear is probably the magnetron cooling fan and that, and the light, are probably both controlled by the electronics board that controls everything else. You might inquire online at Maytag or the Sears parts department to determine the cost of a replacement board but I suspect it will either not be available at all or cost 3/4 of a new microwave.

I'm having same problem with same model~ did you find a solution
SOURCE: Hello, I have a maytag microwave
There is a problem inside the microwave oven.
This could be thermal in nature - in which cae the oven will operate again after a cooling period (which might be as long as fifteen minutes), or there could be a problem which caused a protective fuse to rupture.
I do not advise opening these appliances unless one is fully aware of the associated risks.
