Sample Model Number Tags
Model numbers can be made up of numbers (1005400, for example) or a combination of letters and numbers (LAT1000AAE). The model number will most likely appear on either a paper sticker or a metal plate. Your appliance's model number tag may look similar to the sample model number tags shown here (model number highlighted in yellow):
The rotary switch kit is also known as the start switch or the on and off switch, and is used to power on your trash compactor. The function of the rotary switch kit is to control the electrical power that is going into your trash compactor. This process happens when the switch sendsvoltage to the motor to start the compacting cycle. If your switch is broken the trash compactor will not start. A multimeter test can be performed to test the switch for continuity. The rotary switch kit will come with an on and off rotary switch, and two chrome knobs.
How Buying OEM Parts Can Save You Time and Money

I found the web site easy to navigate and quickly found the part I needed.
The part I needed was for an old appliance. I was able to quickly locate the part on the web site and was surprised to find out the part was in stock and readily available to directly ship. It shipped quickly and was a duplicate for the original.
Bravo!

Rotary switch had finally worn out and was brittle and broken on our 30 plus year old trash compactor.
Removed the switch knob, the outer nut, and the front plate. Unplugged the old switch from the 3 wires and plugged them into the new switch and put it back together with the new knob. Probably less than 5 minutes.
Pulled out compactor drawer and removed same, slid the compactor cabinet out and unpluged the appliance. Removed the two phillips head screws to release the control panel. lossened the locking nut from switch. matched the switches to be sure parts were the same,switched the wires to the new switch and reinstalled.replaced phillips screws,

Thanks for your response but since i already have the control knob and the rotary nut, is it possible to purchase only the rotary start switch? ...instead of the entire kit?
For model number 665.1350590
Hi Phil, thank you for your question. Unfortunately no. It is all sold as a kit there. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.
