XPARTCO WB24X10146 Microwave Door Switch
The XPARTCO WB24X10146 is an aftermarket replacement micro switch (also called a door interlock switch) compatible with a wide range of GE, Hotpoint, RCA, Kenmore, and Sears over-the-range and countertop microwaves. This is a "stand on" style normally-open (NO) interlock switch, identified by the internal designation KW3A-NO, that mounts near the door latch and only closes its circuit when the door is fully shut and latched. The control board reads this switch as part of a multi-switch safety interlock chain that confirms the door is secure before allowing the magnetron to energize.
When this switch fails, the microwave commonly won't start at all, trips a door-related error code, or in rare cases can allow the unit to run with the door not fully secured — which is a safety-relevant fault, not just a convenience one. It directly replaces WB24X10146, WB24X28941, MW-7100-33, AGE22794, AH1019163, AP3866977, 1166990, EA1019163, EAP1019163, PD00039881, PS1019163. Installs in 15–20 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WB24X10146 Microwave Door Switch fixes GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears microwaves that won't start, display a door-related error code, or have a door that doesn't reliably confirm as closed. Normally-open (NO) "stand on" interlock switch, rated 250VAC / 16A, with 0.187" (4.7mm) quick-connect terminals. Replaces WB24X10146, WB24X28941, MW-7100-33, AGE22794, AH1019163, AP3866977, 1166990, EA1019163, EAP1019163, PD00039881, PS1019163. Classic symptom: turntable light and display work, but pressing Start does nothing.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Microwave won't start when Start is pressed, even though the display and light work
Door-related error code or fault light on the display
Microwave randomly shuts off mid-cycle
Door feels like it isn't latching or registering as closed
Clicking sound from the door area with no response from the microwave
Intermittent operation that seems tied to how hard the door is closed
⚠ Safety-Relevant Component Door interlock switches are safety components that prevent the magnetron from energizing unless the door is fully closed and latched. Never bypass, jumper, or defeat a microwave door switch to "get it working" — doing so can allow microwave energy to leak while the door is open, which is a genuine radiation safety hazard. Always disconnect power before servicing, and replace all interlock switches in the chain if more than one shows signs of wear.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Microwave Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet, and for built-in/over-the-range units also switch off the dedicated circuit breaker — microwaves store high voltage in the capacitor even after unplugging. Remove the outer cabinet or control panel cover to access the door switch assembly near the latch mechanism. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting, since GE microwaves typically use two or three interlock switches wired in sequence and mixing up the connections can leave the unit unsafe to operate. Disconnect the quick-connect terminals from the old switch, noting which wire goes to which terminal. Remove the mounting screw(s) holding the switch to its bracket and remove the old switch. Install the new WB24X10146 in the same position and secure it with the mounting screw(s). Reconnect the terminals exactly as photographed. Reassemble the cabinet or panel, restore power, and test that the door registers correctly and the microwave starts normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver (for cabinet screws).
Frequently Asked Questions
My microwave's display and turntable light work, but it won't start — is this the part?
This is a classic symptom of a failed door interlock switch. The control board needs a confirmed "door closed and latched" signal from all switches in the interlock chain before it will energize the magnetron. If that signal is missing from even one switch, most GE microwaves will power up normally but refuse to start a cook cycle. Confirm with a multimeter continuity test on the suspect switch before ordering, since GE microwaves usually use more than one interlock switch.
Is this the same as the EXP499 or EXP497 microwave door switch?
No — while all three use similar 4.7mm terminals, they are different switches used in different microwave platforms and are not interchangeable. WB24X10146 is GE's own "stand on" KW3A-NO design. Always match by part number rather than terminal size or general appearance.
Is it safe to keep using the microwave if I suspect this switch is bad?
We'd recommend not continuing to use it until it's repaired. Door interlock switches exist specifically to prevent microwave energy from leaking out while the door is open or not fully latched. If a switch is failing intermittently, the microwave may seem to work sometimes, but that's not a reason to keep using it — replace the switch before further use, and never attempt to bypass or jumper an interlock switch.
How many interlock switches does my GE microwave have, and do I need to replace them all?
Most GE microwaves use two or three interlock switches wired in sequence (often a primary switch, a secondary/monitor switch, and sometimes a door sensing switch). You typically only need to replace the specific switch that's testing bad, but if one has failed from age or wear, the others are often not far behind — some technicians replace the full set at once to avoid a repeat repair call.

XPARTCO HS810 Refrigerator 3-in-1 Hard Start Kit 1/12 to 1/5 HP 120V
The XPARTCO XPHS810 is a universal 3-in-1 hard start kit that combines a solid-state starting relay, a start capacitor, and thermal overload protection into a single prewired unit for refrigerator and freezer compressors rated 1/12 to 1/5 HP at 120V (110–125VAC). It's designed as a direct equivalent to the widely used Supco RCO810 and similar kits, giving a struggling compressor extra starting torque to overcome internal friction and gas pressure at startup — commonly used to fix the classic "click-buzz-click" no-start symptom without replacing the entire compressor.
The kit is fully prewired with color-coded leads (typically black = Common, white = Start, red = Run) and mounts directly onto the compressor's terminal pins, with instructions printed on the unit itself. It directly replaces Supco RCO810, URCO810, URC0810, RC0810, RC100, TJ90RCO810, AP4503019, ERP810, ERPU810, HS8, HS810, HS81, PCS810, and Mars 32781. Installs in 15–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO HS810 3-in-1 Hard Start Kit fixes refrigerators and freezers whose compressor makes a repeated "click-buzz-click" sound and fails to start, or that shut off on thermal overload during startup. Combines relay, start capacitor, and overload protector in one prewired unit for 1/12 to 1/5 HP compressors, 120V, 3.5A RLA. Replaces Supco RCO810, URCO810, RC0810, RC100, TJ90RCO810, AP4503019, ERP810, HS8, HS810, HS81, PCS810, Mars 32781. Do not install on LG linear/inverter compressors — see Installation Notes.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Compressor makes a repeated "click-buzz-click" noise and fails to start
Refrigerator or freezer runs warm because the compressor won't stay running
Compressor hums but doesn't start, then trips off on overload
Refrigerator cycles on and off rapidly without reaching temperature
Older or worn compressor that starts hard, especially after a power outage
⚠ Capacitor Hazard — Read Before Servicing This kit contains a start capacitor, which can store a dangerous electrical charge even after the refrigerator is unplugged. Always disconnect power before servicing, and discharge the capacitor safely (using an insulated-handle resistor tool or by briefly shorting the terminals with an insulated screwdriver) before handling it. Never touch capacitor terminals with bare hands. If you are not comfortable working around stored electrical charge, have this repair performed by a qualified technician.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Discharge Capacitor Safely Disconnect power before beginning. Before touching any wiring, check your compressor's data label to confirm it is NOT a linear/inverter/BLDC compressor — this kit is not compatible with those and can damage the inverter board if connected. Access the compressor compartment, typically at the rear or bottom of the unit. Remove the existing relay/overload assembly by gently pulling it straight off the compressor terminal pins — do not force or twist. Use a multimeter to confirm which pins are Common (C), Start (S), and Run (R) if not already labeled. Connect the hard start kit's wires to the matching pins. Wire the kit's main power leads into the refrigerator's supply wiring using wire nuts, following the included diagram. Secure the kit with zip ties or its mounting strap to prevent vibration damage during compressor operation. Restore power and confirm the compressor starts smoothly without repeated clicking. Tools needed: nut driver or screwdriver, digital multimeter, wire nuts, insulated screwdriver (for capacitor discharge).
Frequently Asked Questions
My compressor makes a clicking or buzzing sound and won't start — will this fix it?
A hard start kit resolves this in many cases, especially on older or worn compressors that struggle to overcome internal gas pressure at startup. However, "click-buzz-click" can also indicate a failing compressor winding or a compressor nearing end of life. If the hard start kit doesn't resolve the issue, the compressor itself may need replacement — a hard start kit can extend a marginal compressor's life but can't revive one with failed internal windings.
Can I use this on any refrigerator?
This kit works on standard PSC and RSIR compressors within the 1/12 to 1/5 HP range at 120V. It is NOT compatible with LG linear/inverter compressors or any variable-speed inverter-driven compressor — connecting it to one of those can destroy the inverter control board. Check your compressor's label for "Inverter," "Linear," "BLDC," or "Digital" before ordering.
Do I need to remove my existing start capacitor or relay first?
Yes — remove the old relay/overload assembly from the compressor terminal pins before installing this kit. The XPHS810 is designed to work with or without an existing separate run capacitor remaining in the circuit, but the old start relay and any old start capacitor should be removed and replaced by this kit, not left in place alongside it.
Is this safe to install myself?
Many DIYers install hard start kits successfully, but this repair involves a capacitor that can hold a dangerous electrical charge even after the unit is unplugged, plus correctly identifying compressor terminals. If you're not comfortable working around stored electrical charge or don't have a multimeter to confirm terminal identification, we'd recommend having a qualified technician perform this repair.

XPARTCO W10613606 Refrigerator Compressor Start Relay and Capacitor
The XPARTCO W10613606 is an aftermarket replacement compressor start relay and capacitor assembly compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Jenn-Air, Admiral, Crosley, Dacor, Hardwick, Inglis, Litton, and Magic Chef refrigerators. The start relay is a small but critical electrical component that plugs directly onto the compressor terminals and provides the initial power surge needed to start the compressor motor. Once the compressor reaches operating speed, the relay drops out — leaving the compressor to run on its own. The capacitor (rated 15µF ±5%, 250VAC) works alongside the relay to store and release the burst of electrical energy needed on startup.
When the start relay fails, the compressor cannot start — causing the refrigerator to stop cooling entirely. A failed relay typically produces a clicking sound every few minutes as the compressor tries and fails to start, followed by a short rest, then another attempt. This kit includes both the start relay and the CBB61 capacitor. It directly replaces W10416065, 8208290, 8208368, C8931605, 67003186, 67005560, 67005561, 67005562, 67003764, 8171210, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Installs in under 15 minutes — no tools required in most cases.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Unplug the refrigerator from the power outlet before beginning. Move the refrigerator away from the wall to access the rear or lower back panel. Remove the rear access panel by unscrewing the retaining screws to expose the compressor. The compressor is a large black dome-shaped component — the start relay and capacitor assembly plugs onto the side terminals. Grip the old relay firmly and pull it straight off the compressor pins. Shake it — if it rattles, the internal contacts have failed and replacement is confirmed. Compare the old relay to the new W10613606 to confirm the terminal layout matches. Align the new relay with the compressor pins and press it firmly on. Reinstall the access panel, restore power, and listen for the compressor to start and run normally within a few minutes. Note: Some models may require trimming the wire connector tabs or reversing the connector orientation for a proper fit — do not force the connection. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver (for panel access only).
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the compressor start relay do?
The start relay plugs onto the compressor terminals and provides the brief but powerful surge of electrical current needed to start the compressor motor from a standstill. Once the compressor reaches operating speed — usually within a second or two — the relay drops out and the compressor runs on its own. Without a working start relay, the compressor cannot start at all, and the refrigerator stops cooling. The capacitor works alongside the relay to store and deliver the extra energy needed on startup.
How do I know if my start relay has failed?
The most reliable quick test is the rattle test: unplug the refrigerator, pull the start relay off the compressor, and shake it near your ear. A working relay is silent. A failed relay will rattle — the internal contacts have broken free and are loose inside the casing. Another sign is a repeated clicking sound every 2–5 minutes from the back of the refrigerator, where the compressor attempts to start, fails, trips the overload protector, rests, and tries again. If the fridge is warm and you hear clicking, check the relay first.
What is the difference between the start relay and the capacitor?
The start relay is the switching device that connects and disconnects the start winding of the compressor motor during startup. The capacitor stores a charge and releases it during startup to give the motor the additional torque it needs to get moving under load. Together they work as a startup system for the compressor. This kit includes both — replacing both at the same time ensures the complete startup circuit is fresh and reliable.
My fridge is still not cooling after replacing the start relay — what else could it be?
If replacing the start relay does not restore cooling, other possible causes include a failed compressor (the compressor runs but no longer builds pressure), a refrigerant leak in the sealed system, a failed start capacitor (if not replaced along with the relay), a bad overload protector, or a faulty main control board. Listen carefully after installing the new relay — if the compressor now starts and runs but the fridge still doesn't cool after several hours, a sealed system issue or refrigerant problem is likely and will require a certified technician.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications and terminal configuration of the original W10613606 start relay and capacitor assembly.
