Parts for Ge PT9550DF2BB: Lower Oven Parts

This high limit switch is the temperature safety cut-out for your appliance. It monitors heat and opens the circuit if temperatures rise too high—helping protect components and prevent shutdowns caused by overheating.

• Monitors temperature at a critical location and interrupts power if limits are exceeded
• Helps protect internal components from heat damage
• Can help address: unit won't power on, shuts off during use, or runs without heating
• Replace if it remains open (no continuity) when cool or shows visible damage

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; never work on a live appliance
• If servicing a microwave, be aware the high-voltage capacitor can retain a dangerous charge
• Note wire positions and transfer leads one at a time; mount the switch securely in the original location
• Do not bypass a safety switch; also correct any airflow/ventilation issues that may have caused overheating

This high limit switch is the appliance's over-temperature safety device. It opens the circuit if internal heat rises beyond a safe threshold, helping protect wiring and controls and restore dependable operation once the underlying overheating issue is resolved.

• Monitors temperature and interrupts power when heat exceeds its limit to prevent damage
• Also called a safety thermostat or thermal cut-off
• When tripped or failed, common symptoms include no heat, shutting off during use, or loss of power to the bake/broil circuits
• Overheating events from blocked vents or cooling fan issues can trigger this safety

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the unit to cool completely before servicing
• Access location; note wire positions and transfer one lead at a time to the new switch
• Mount firmly and flush to its bracket/surface so it senses temperature correctly; do not bypass this safety
• After replacement, verify airflow and cooling fan operation and run a brief heat test
