Sharp Microwave Repair for Owners, Renters and Landlords
We are independent and have no tie to Sharp. If the microwave is still inside its Sharp warranty, the manufacturer should be your first call. Once that coverage has ended, include the model number and the symptom in your booking so parts can be looked up ahead of the visit.

We name the failed part and give you the cost of fixing it. Work starts only after you agree.
Repair and Check
The part is installed and the appliance is run through a cycle so you can watch it working.
How Sharp designs its microwaves
Sharp's Microwave Drawer puts a motorized drawer in front of an ordinary microwave cavity. Press open and a small motor drives a gear rack along the slides; switches tell the control when the drawer is fully in or out. When the drawer won't move, stalls partway or bounces back, look to the motor, a stripped rack, a worn slide, debris in the track or a position switch. When it opens and closes normally but food stays cold, the fault is on the high-voltage side: magnetron, diode, capacitor or an interlock. Over-the-range models add a vent fan and light; countertop units are simpler. The capacitor holds a lethal charge, so testing belongs to a technician. We check drawer and cooking systems separately.

Still have a question?
Get in touch with the brand, the symptom and, if you can find it, the model number. Some things we can answer right away; others need a technician in front of the machine.
Crumbs or a utensil in the track, a worn slide, a weak motor or a damaged gear rack can all do it. We inspect the mechanism and replace the part that's worn.
The cooking system is separate from the drawer drive. A failed magnetron, diode, capacitor or interlock switch is likely, and we test those on site.
