I will guess it is the wave traps seals arround the microwave door (often they are made rubber part mixed with conductive stuff) that are too old. These seals tend to expand when hot and are therefore more efficient. You could change it for cheap ($10), ask our local general store. As a quick fix (not recommended) you could add some electrical conductive grease but it will further decreade long term abilty of these seals (grease tend to crack rubber), and these kind of grease are not really food compatible.
