Trip breaker when opening door
Door microswith was stuck on. This is caused, I discovered, by frequently stopping the oven, while running, by opening the door rather than using the stop button. Causes the switch to arc and eventually fail. This causes the safety microswitch to trip the breaker when door is opened. There are little nubs sticking up on the spade connecto
... Read morers. You must squeeze them down before you can remove them from the switch. The main door switch is the upper one, mounted at an angle. You have to remove the latch assembly to remove the switch. The problem was obvious once I got the switch out. This problem could also blow the fuse, but in my case the breaker tripped first. Use an ohmmeter to check switch and fuse. The door switch is normally open. The safety switch is normally CLOSED. Instructions inside were helpful and described this problem. So, avoid this repair by always stopping oven with stop button!

Blows fuse when open door why?
For model number JES1142SJ06
Hi James, Thank you for the great question. The issue is within the door latch assembly.There are three switches in the latch and when the hooks on the door go into the latch it will active the switches to let the appliance know the door is closed. Check to make sure the door is level and is not lose or has play in it. If the latch is not activating the switches in the proper sequence it can blow the fuse. If the door is level and secure you can check the actual latch assembly to make sure there is no play in the latch.If everything is secure, I suggest testing the three switches in the latch to see if one or more are defective and need to be replaced. Hope this helps!
