I would have to try several times to get it to cook. Now it won't cook at all. Everything else works. Any suggestions?

We have pulled down panel and test four door switches. They are OK. What is likely next? Is there a diode?

Jumped the power relay terminals and it cooked. Therefore the problem is probably in the control panel.

You are right. The problem is a bad control board. Unfortunately this part is no longer available, so it is probably time for a new microwave.
