:D After finding & reading this trash compactor problem I'm happy to report I was able to diagnose the same exact problem with my compactor & it is now working again. Thanks

Glad it's working again but our fix was short lived. We had to replace the part. Part was $60ish and was very simple to replace. Good luck!

You have to remove the container and the two screws on the bottom of the control panel. Pull the control panel up to release it from the tabs and it's all yours.

- The part number for the push-button switch is AP3084656

Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool trash compactor Model GX900QPKB0

What was the original problem?

What is the complete model number of the trash compactor?
