Limit Switch
Part Number:
AP2023975 made by GE
Is this the switch that is contained BETWEEN the Upper and Lower ovens?
I can not set and turn on the bottom oven, but the top oven DOES work.

Is this the part and does it work like a thermostat?

The problem is that the lower oven does not go on. When the temp is set and the oven button is pushed to put the oven on the LCD display reads 100 degrees (which it always does until the internal temp increases) then after about 30 seconds the system shuts off.

Does the above part fix this problem?
Please reply at vincentc1@earthlink.net

Vincent,

This limit switch can be a problem if it's open. Just push in the red button in the center to reset the switch. If it would not help then check this switch for continuity.

If there is nothing wrong then the problem is a bad control board (aka a clock).

- The part number for the control board is AP2025104

Hi Gene,
I'll open the oven and check on the reset button.
Thanks for the info and I'll let you know what happens.
By the way, it seems that the GE limit switch part numbers are for part 156 WB24K5049 and for part 158 is WB24K5033.
Thanks again Gene.
Regards,
Vincent
