My Panasonic Inverter Genius Sensor 1250W Microwave Lights up but trips my breaker when I hit start.
Microwave is in lock mode. How do you unlock to use?
You unlock it by pushing the Stop/Reset button, repeatedly, until the Lock goes away.

This is most likely because of a faulty interlock monitor switch, operated by the door latch. If it thinks you're running the oven with the door open it will cause the fuse to blow (or trip a circuit breaker in your case). The switch may be bad (not opening as it should when the door is closed) or out of adjustment.
The switch is replaceable and it's not a costly part. You should have microwave service done by a professional, especially if it involves the door. There are potentially lethal voltages present with the cover off, and the possibility of microwave leakage is the repairs aren't dome properly.
Hope this gets you cooking again. Thanks for using Fixya!
