Microwave Thermostat Replacement Guide
This high limit thermostat is designed for various microwave models. Its role is to cut off the appliance's circuit when the internal temperature exceeds a certain level, preventing safety hazards. If the thermostat is faulty or damaged, your microwave will cease to function. Unlike a thermal fuse, which is single-use, this thermostat resets once the temperature drops below the operating threshold. However, if your microwave frequently shuts off or the manufacturer advises replacement after activation, immediate replacement is necessary for safe operation.
Before replacing the thermostat, inspect your microwave for other potential issues that might cause overheating. To replace the high-limit thermostat, you will need a flathead or Phillips-head screwdriver. Start by unplugging your microwave. Use the screwdriver to remove the side or top cover, providing access to the internal electronics. Refer to your user manual to locate the thermostat within the main panel assembly. Disconnect it from the wire harnesses, which may require pliers. Check for visible burn damage on the thermostat and other components. You can also test the thermostat for continuity with a multimeter to determine if it is burnt out or defective.
Once you have inspected and tested the thermostat, install the new one and reassemble your microwave. This will ensure safe and proper operation.
