This is a genuine OEM drive gear kit for your trash compactor. It includes the drive gear, pin spring, a retaining clip which is also known as a c-ring, ram stop, and the ram cam.

This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer. This is a top limit and directional switch that is designed for use with trash compactors. This switch will interrupt the current that flows to the motor when the ram reaches the top of the compactor. When the ram reaches the top of the compactor this switch reverses the motor direction. You may have a problem with your switch if you compactor won?t stop running at the end of the cycle. Before you replace this part make sure you have unplugged your trash compactor.

Trash Compactor would not stop after cycle and would make a ton of noise
I had a couple of problems with my trash compactor, it was present in the home when we bought it. First it wouldn't turn on, the on/off switch was broken so I replaced the switch and knob assembly. Then the unit would run through a cycle and wouldn't stop at the end and would make a loud banging noise. My directional switch was the suspect at first because it was in bad shape to begin with, looked like it had gotten stuck at some point and bent the arm. I replaced the directional switch and it didn't help. Then I realized that the on/off/start panel showed that the start button was stuck in the on position. This was delivering constant current and wouldn't allow the unit to stop. DON'T spend $150 for a new start/on/off panel. I took the panel off and separated the front from the back to expose the buttons from the inside. The start button was stuck so I took the parts out and reassembled them, they're all little plastic and metal pieces that interlink. After I reassembled the buttons' insides I reassembled the panel and reinstalled it. The unit works fine now. Read more...

Ran out of compactor bags
I put in a new bag. Honestly guys, filling out this questionnaire took more time than replacing a bag, something we do every week. I know that you mean well, but perhaps you should try to differentiate between disposable items and true repair parts. Read more...

Trash Compactor the drawer was very hard to open
In replacing the old partial rusted drawer slides had rusted screw with nuts that spun had to drill them out and replaced front larger bolt and nut the rear screw used a larger sheet metal screw. The wheels and bearing with on easy the instructions showed a modification to remove a tab for the different wheel assembly and installed just like the instructions. When done the drawer will slide out with just touch of your foot on open tab GREAT!! I was looking at buying a new compactor the repair saved me about 700 $. Thanks a lot. Never had a trash Compactor before this great and it keeps my puppy out of trash. Read more...

Ronald from MOVILLE, IA
Switch knob broke off with part of the switch tube still in place.
Used a Philips screw driver, inserted it into the broken portion of the switch tube, turned it left to clear the ear slots which hold it in place. It then popped out and aligned the new switch and inserted, then turned to on to hold the switch in place. Simple. Read more...
