The vent door opens when the microwave is in use and closes once the time is done. The fan keeps running. I need to unplug it between uses. I think that a fuse might need replacing but I cannot get to them. I was able to remove the vent door but cannot get the grill behind the door open. Is there a trick to this? I cannot find any screws and cannot get the door to slide in any direction or to pull out. Any help would be great.

The model number you posted does not come up. Verify and repost it. Gene.
