After receiving a replacement door safety switch for my Sharp Model R-1461 microwave, I now find I am unable to remove the outside plastic cover of the door to install the replacement switch. No service/repair manual was supplied when purchased, and Sharp tells me that it's not a consumer repair.

At the top of your microwave is a vent with three screws...undo all three screws and gently slide this panel off. Then you will see one screw just above your control panel...remove this...then just below your panel on the underside of microwave is a screw...remove...now open your door to the microwave...you may have to work with this if your's is broken...this is how you get to the underside of control box. I had mine apart because I need a new fuse...good luck
On Feb 24 you said you replaced the fuse just inside the conrol panel. I need to do the same, but I don't know what size (how many amps, slow-blo or fast) the fuse is. Do you remember?

I think your request for help should have been directed to KittyRN. I replaced a door switch only. The answer from KittyRN though seems to indicate she/he (?) needed a new fuse. I hope you get your answer .
