How do you repair a Sharp Carousel microwave oven?

Question

When I press START on the microwave, the lights come on and the timer starts to count down. What is not working is the part that sends the microwaves into the cooking chamber and the carousel that turns the food.

I have changed the fuse inside and it still didn't work.  Maybe there are two fuses, but I cannot see a second one.  

Has anyone had the same problem or works on microwaves for a living?  Please help me with this problem.  I cannot afford to buy a new one this close to Christmas.

The magnetron is bad in your unit.  It costs more round 150 to 200 to replace that than to replace the microwave.  Unless it is an over the range model.  My recommendation is to get a counter top model they cost around 80 bucks take the over the range one out.  put in a shelf and put your counter top model there.  It cost way less than getting a new over the range unit. And when the magnetron, and diode go...you can just replace it with a new microwave.
