I replaced with new door latch and now when door is closed the inside light remains on. I have unplugged multiple times, and that doesn't help. Display panel shows no error. I can still set the clock and turn fan and under light on/off, but cannot coko because I get beep sound. What could it be? :confused:

If you have a volt meter you can test the switches. Microwaves hold a lethal voltage even unplugged. If you don't have high voltage experiences you may want to hire this out to a technician. Below is a link if you feel up to it. Microwave Video : ApplianceRepairLesson.com ApplianceRepairLesson.com
