WB27X10810 - GE Microwave Thermostat

This GE Microwave Thermostat (WB27X10810) is a genuine part designed specifically for GE microwaves. It is responsible for measuring internal air temperatures to regulate the cooking power, which helps in preventing overheating or potential damage to other microwave components. The thermostat operates through bimetallic flexing contacts that open or close as the internal temperatures fluctuate above or below certain thresholds. While simple thermostats offer basic overheat protection, this particular model also dynamically controls the magnetron output during the microwave's operation, ensuring your food is cooked perfectly without risking the appliance's integrity.

If your microwave begins to overheat, fails to regulate temperature, or shows signs of inconsistent cooking power, it might be an indicator that the thermostat is defective and needs replacement. This thermostat is crucial for both thermal protection and regulation, playing a silent yet critical role in your microwave's overall performance.

Before purchasing, please verify your device's model number to ensure compatibility with this part.
