This Trash Compactor Directional Switch interrupts the flow of current to the motor when the compacting ram reaches the top of the compactor. If the motor won't stop in either the top or bottom position, replacing this part may alleviate the issue. Installing this part will require basic hand tools and some disassembly of the trash compactor. Previous repair experience will be helpful but is not necessary. You must unplug the compactor or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance before installing this part.
