Vipr161ss Parts

This microswitch box is the switch assembly that senses door/latch position and completes control circuits so the range or oven operates correctly. It replaces a worn or failed switch housing to restore normal door and control behavior. What it does:

• Houses one or more microswitches that detect door or latch position for safety and control
• Sends a signal to the range control when the door is closed or latched
• Common symptom: oven or burner won't start even when controls are set
• Common symptom: loss of broil/self-clean functions or intermittent operation tied to door position

• Disconnect power at the breaker before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Accessible from behind the control panel or door assembly depending on model; mounting screws and wire connectors must be handled gently
• Match wire locations and connector types during reassembly; take a photo before disconnection if needed
