Microwave does not turn off when door is openned

Model Number: pvm1870 Brand: GE Age: 1 - 5 years

Appliance Parts from AppliancePartPros.com

My microwave it cooking fine however now when the food is done and you open the door the turn table stops but the fan continues to blow out the back vent inside the oven and will not turn off. I tried unplugging and resetting everything but that did not help. Is it still safe to use the oven? Will replacing the cooling fan fix the problem. Any suggestions? Thanks Barb

Most likely the problem is a bad door switch.
