Description

This microswitch senses door position and sends a reliable on/off signal to the appliance control, restoring proper door-sensing or interlock function. It's a direct-replacement style switch used in common oven and range door assemblies. What it does:

• Detects whether the door is open or closed and signals the appliance control
• Helps enable or disable functions tied to door position (light, bake/lock features)
• Common symptom fix: oven or range doesn't start or behave correctly when door position is uncertain
• Common symptom fix: interior light or latch-related features fail to work

What's included:

• One microswitch

Install notes:

• Disconnect power at the breaker before starting any repair
• Use care removing door or control panels to access the switch; keep track of screws and fasteners
• Note connector positions before unplugging electrical connectors; reattach exactly
