Inside under the roof panel is sparking with popcorn?
It's probably arcing when you do popcorn because of its low moisture content. The microwave energy is not being absorbed by a significant quantity of water. When there's too much energy left over, anything metal becomes an antenna upon which a significant voltage will be induced.
Putting a small glass of water in the corner of the oven when you pop corn, might fix the problem.

It may be the oil in the popcorn---do you own one of the covers that go inside to cover so food does not splatter?

Be sure the oven is unplugged or the breaker is off.
There
should be a "mini-manual" (tech sheet) hidden inside the unit
behind the
control panel or hidden on the left side behind the grille, which is
very helpful when troubleshooting, testing, and locating components.

You have a shorting
membrane keypad. If and when an oven is coming on or doing anything by itself, this is very dangerous and can result in a fire.
So until it is repaired,
please leave it unplugged or leave the door
open when it's not in use, and please do not leave it running
unattended.
On this model, the membrane keypad is not
available as a separate part, so you would have to order the control
panel frame which comes with a new keypad.
In this case, you simply
move your circuit board into the new frame.
That is a simple do-it-yourself job.

These models use halogen
lamps. You must not touch halogen types with your bare skin, as the
oils
will shorten the bulb life.
You should be able to
get one from a home center or local appliance parts store.
If you order it online (from the link above) it is part # 4375348.

Your problem is your mag tube (Magnatron) you can go to www.partsselect.com and your part number is PS2352604. Their price is $123.44. I work on micro waves myself and have found that if one isn't a built in over the stove like yours, they are not worth repairing because you can buy one cheaper. If this unit is not real old and you can replace this parts yourself it might be worth fixing bit if you are going to have it repaired, it might be cheaper to replace it. Good luck.
P.S. If you open this unit up. Make sure you bleed the capacitor off, this is one that will knock the _ _ _ out of you if you ground it by touching it. Bleed it by using screw driver to short capacitor to ground or case.

The door handle can easily be replaced on MOST microwave ovens by removing the inner door panel that goes around the perimeter of the glass. The following link explains how to access and replace the door handle:

The average cost for a replacement handle usually runs about $20 - $40. Replacements may be purchased at the websites listed in the link I provided.
The part number for the model number you provided varies depending on color, so make sure you order the correct one for your oven. You can view an exploded view of your microwave door here:

The door handle is a simple repair that can be done with the door in place, or with the door removed. You do not have to uninstall the oven if this is an over the range model.
If you have any questions, please post back and let me know. I hope this helps you
