That sounds like a door switch. Which switch is it? Top, middle, bottom?
Is your model number R1480? If not, please reply back with your model number so we can help you.
The door switches in model R1480 are:
QSW-MA110WRE0 top & bottom switches
FFS-BA016/KIT middle monitor switch with fuse (kit)
You can probably find exploded views and order parts by entering your model number here at the Sears parts site.
But the best place to order Sharp parts is Tritronics.
If none of this info helps you, please reply back with your brand and model number and let me know which part you need.
We're happy to help you with free advice and we'd appreciate your thoughtful rating of our answer.
Mouser.com and digikey.com both will sell them in small quantites. Searspartsdirect.com lists this part as Part# 5304440026
Go to repairclinic.com. They have everything you need. I had the same problem with the same switch. There web site is easy to use I did not even need the model number from my Sharp microwave. It is under door parts, and the picture is right there.
I hope that this site helps you as much as it helped me.
I too had the same part go bad "D3V-16G-3C25" on my Sharp microwave model #R520LK. I looked around and everybody wanted to sell you 100 parts. There are 3 switches on the door It was the bottom door switch, for a quick fix, I switched it out with the top one which is the same switch and then wired the top two wires together. It now cooks again, but if you open the door to stop it before the timer runs out, it will stop cooking but the timer will keep on going, oh well, I then follow it up with the Stop and Clear button.
However I did find a new switch at http://www.partstore.com/ for $4.95. Shipping was a little high and brought my total to just under $20, but what the heck, it's cheaper than eating out because your microwave doesn't work. http://www.partstore.com/ seems to carry every kind af part for appliances, electronics & more.

Need to replace d3v-16g-3c25 (door relay) for Frigidaire(Electrolux) model fmv156dcf. When I open the door I trip the circuit, Where can I buy one?
Thanks
The well-meaning solution suggesting alternate parts may not solve the proposed problem.
The part number really is "D3V-16G-3C25". Mine is labelled OMRON and came from a Sharp R-308J microwave oven.
I suspect this switch was used in many appliances and is common. Unfortunately I have not yet found anyplace that will sell less than lots of 100 of them. Tritonics and the Sears parts site do not list it.Octopart.com listed several possible sources, all of which were out of stock on 12/28/2008.
I'll keep looking!
