WB07X21968 - GE Microwave Thermostat

This GE Microwave Thermostat (WB07X21968) is a genuine GE manufactured part designed specifically for GE microwaves. Thermostats are crucial components in microwaves that measure the internal air temperatures to ensure cooking power is regulated effectively, preventing overheating or potential damage to other components. Featuring bimetallic flexing contacts, they adjust by opening or closing as the temperatures cross designated thresholds. While simple thermostats offer basic overheat protection, smarter versions dynamically adjust magnetron outputs to optimize microwave operation. If your microwave exhibits signs of overheating, inconsistent cooking temperatures, or if the appliance stops heating altogether, it may be indicative of a defective thermostat that needs replacement. To maintain optimal performance and safety, replacing the thermostat is advised when these symptoms are noted. Before making a purchase, customers are encouraged to verify their device's model number to ensure compatibility with this GE Microwave Thermostat (WB07X21968).
