Kenmore / Sears Range Fuse Or Sensor

This time-delay fuse protects the appliance's power circuit by opening when current exceeds a safe level while tolerating brief inrush current. Replacing a blown fuse can help restore power once the root cause is corrected. What it does:

• Protects the line and control circuits from shorts and overloads
• Time-delay design helps prevent nuisance opening during startup surges
• When open, the unit will be completely dead—no display, lights, or response
• Repeatedly opening usually indicates an unresolved electrical fault that needs diagnosis

• 1 time-delay fuse

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; some appliances can retain dangerous high voltage
• Replace only with the same type and rating specified by the manufacturer
• Inspect the fuse holder and wiring for heat damage or loose connections before reassembly
• If the new fuse opens immediately, stop and diagnose the underlying cause; never bypass or upsize a fuse

This microwave thermostat is a temperature-sensitive safety switch that helps protect the unit from overheating. When the preset limit is reached, it interrupts power to the affected circuit to help prevent damage and erratic shutdowns.

• Monitors temperature at its mounting location and opens the circuit if overheating is detected
• Helps protect internal components from excessive heat
• Common symptoms of a failed thermostat include: unit shuts off during cooking, won't start until it cools down, or has no power/no heat due to an open safety
• Replace if the original tests open when it should be closed

• Disconnect power by unplugging the unit or switching off the circuit breaker before servicing
• Microwaves contain a high-voltage capacitor that can retain a dangerous charge; only qualified persons should service and discharge the capacitor
• Note wire locations before removal and transfer connections firmly to the new thermostat
• Mount the thermostat securely and in the same position to ensure proper temperature sensing

Replaces the refrigerator temperature control thermostat to restore consistent cooling. This direct-replacement thermostat helps regulate compartment temperature so food stays at the set level and reduces temperature swings. What it does

• Senses compartment temperature and switches the cooling system on and off to maintain the selected temperature range.
• Helps prevent temperature fluctuations that can cause food to spoil or freeze unexpectedly.
• Commonly used when the refrigerator runs continuously, won't reach set temperature, or cycles erratically.
• Works with the existing control knob and wiring—intended as a like-for-like replacement.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury.
• Basic hand tools are typically required; take care not to damage the sensor bulb or capillary if present.

This limit switch is a snap-action safety/position switch used in many cooking appliances. It opens or closes an electrical circuit when a mechanism reaches its limit, enabling safe operation and helping protect components when conditions aren't met.

• Provides snap-action switching to confirm a mechanical limit or interlock within the appliance
• Changes state to allow or interrupt power when the limit is reached
• Common failure symptoms: self-clean won't start or complete, oven won't heat/start, or door lock-related error codes
• May fail a continuity test or lose its distinct "click" when actuated

• Disconnect power before service; allow appliance to cool completely
• Access and mounting vary by model—take photos and transfer wires one at a time
• Mount in the same orientation; ensure the actuator/lever aligns with the mechanism and is not bent
• After installation, verify switch operation with a continuity test while actuating the mechanism

This limit switch is a safety control for compatible cooking appliances. It opens or closes an electrical circuit when a preset limit is reached—commonly temperature or travel—helping protect components and ensure proper operation of heating and latch systems.

• Monitors a specific limit at its mounting point (temperature or mechanism travel, depending on model)
• Opens/closes the circuit to interrupt or allow power to related components
• A failed switch can prevent heating, stop self-clean from starting, or keep the door from locking/unlocking
• Helps protect wiring and controls from damage during abnormal conditions

• Disconnect power to the appliance and allow all components to cool before servicing
• Access location varies by model; take photos and label wires before removal
• Transfer wires one at a time to the new switch; secure with existing hardware
• If the old switch tripped due to overheating or binding, inspect fans, vents, and latch/linkages to correct the root cause

This push-button replacement switch restores reliable user control for compatible Frigidaire appliances. It replaces a worn or failed control switch so buttons respond correctly and features return to normal operation. What it does:

• Completes the electrical circuit when pressed to send the user command to the appliance control
• Helps fix symptoms such as unresponsive or intermittent button operation
• Prevents unintended cycling or failure to start when the original switch has worn contacts
• Works as the user-interface switching component for the affected control panel or assembly

• One replacement push-button switch

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting service to avoid electrical shock
• Access may require removing the control panel or trim; keep fasteners organized for reassembly
• Verify panel orientation and wire connector positions before removing the old switch

A hi-limit safety switch that stops heating when temperatures get too high, protecting the appliance from overheating and helping prevent damage. Designed to replace a failed thermal cutoff to restore safe temperature control. What it does:

• Opens the heating circuit when internal temperature exceeds the safe limit to prevent overheating
• Commonly replaces a failed or intermittently opening thermal limit control
• Helps stop burners or heating elements from running unchecked when a thermostat fails
• Addresses symptoms like no heat, intermittent heating, or safety trip shutdowns

• Disconnect power before accessing heating components and wiring
• Verify the part matches the appliance diagram and wiring orientation before installation
• If corrosion or other damage is present on connectors or terminals, replace or repair per OEM guidance

This temperature control thermostat replaces the refrigerator's manual/mechanical control that cycles the compressor and fans to maintain set temperatures, helping restore consistent cooling. Simple, direct replacement for units using this style of controller. What it does:

• Opens and closes the cooling circuit based on the temperature setting to regulate cabinet temperature
• Stops continuous running when the compressor fails to cycle or restarts cooling when the temperature rises
• Commonly used when the refrigerator won't reach or hold set temperatures or runs constantly
• Compatible with systems that use a mechanical dial-style temperature control and capillary sensing tube

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Replace the thermostat in the same orientation and secure sensing tube without kinks; handle the capillary tube carefully
• Verify electrical connections match the original and restore power only after mounting is complete
• If temperature issues persist after replacement, check related components (evaporator, defrost, compressor)

A replacement limit switch that helps prevent overheating by cutting power when temperature reaches a set point. Fits into the appliance's temperature control/safety system to keep operation safer and more reliable. What it does:
