Microwave ovens are designed to stop cooking when the door is opened. This is an important safety feature. Only the cooking process should stop, or pause; the other functions of the oven should remain working.
If your microwave oven actually stops completely - no lights or working controls - you need to call for service.

What does an interlock monitor switch do in a microwave oven?
In general, the interlock monitor switch in a microwave oven is the switch that shorts the line out (knocking out the internal fuse) in a microwave oven if the door interlock switch stays shut when the door is opened. The interlock monitor switch is the monitor for the door interlock switch. Let's look at things more closely and see what that means.The door interlock switch opens when the door opens, and this prevents the oven from coming on when the door is not shut. That way no one gets zapped. Simple. The door interlock monitor switch will close when the door opens, but this switch closes after the door interlock switch opens. The interlock monitor switch does nothing if everything is working properly.In the case of a door interlock switch that has suffered an arc and the contacts become welded shut, that switch will remain shut when the door is opened. This might allow the oven to run with the door open. But if this happens, the interlock monitor switch, which will shut when the door opens, will short the line if the door interlock switch remains closed when the door opens. This will knock out the line fuse and "kill" the unit. If any microwave oven presents with a blown line fuse, one of the mandatory checks must be the door interlock switch and the door interlock monitor switch.
