I'm guessing that's a VMOS200?

If so, that's a rebranded Sharp R-530ES (as is the Dacor DMO2420S) and its secondary interlock (bottom door switch) or that switch's mount is bad.

See this file on door switches. If you only need a switch, you can order a universal type here for $5 postpaid.

The Sharp R-530E service manual will aid you in disassembly and it is here.

We're happy to help you with free advice and we'd appreciate your thoughtful rating of our answer.

Light has burnt out

R-820BK/BW Microwave Operation Manual
Due to the risks of death or serious injury the above owners manual suggests that a burnt out light demands a service call by a qualified technician.
That said, if you have a basic level of competence and read the safety hazards involved with microwaves (see a good resource on microwave safety and repair at:
http://www.kellerstudio.de/repairfaq/sam/micfaq.htm
Often, the microwave is divided into two main compartments, the electronics compartment(usually immediately behind the front control panel), and the high voltage compartment(usually behind the electronics compartment). The light bulb is likely in one of these two primary compartments. If it is in the high voltage compartment with the HV Capacitor and magnetron, changing the bulb becomes much more dangerous.
Please be very careful if you do decide to do this on your own... unlike most electronics microwaves can remain lethal, even when unplugged. Hope this helps.

Microwave oven will not turn on. no light, no display.

First check breaker at breaker panel. Then if you remove the front vent and key pad you will find a paper with breakdown of unit. Look for fuse, check with a tester, if bad replace, if not check all cavity switches, approx 3 or 4, test these. One of these three checks should solve your problem.

Viking microwave has digital lights but will not turn on to cook?

Hi the problem will be with the touch panel membrane or the controller. if yoiu can hear a click when the start button is pressed then the touch panel is OK asnd you should look at the controller which can be replaced as a unit or if you are up to it it's probably the main cook relay that has failed.
