Compactor would not open. Ram was down
Once I discovered that the ram was down, I had to determine why. Opened up the bottom and discoverer the drive gear was broken. Ordered the parts kit and made the repair. Did not know what the other parts in the kit were for, but it works.

Trash Compactor didn't work
The plastic power nut had stripped out on my 12 year old trash compactor. Ordered 2 new ones from Partselect and installed them. Now it works like new again.

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.

Broken handle
Unscrewed old one. Slide new one in. Screwed in two screws. Done. The handle ended up being black, even though the part was listed as brown.... that is good, because the original part was black.
So glad you had the part. It was pricey, but way less than a new trash compactor!

broken handle
It is held on with three screws. The PartSelect was the only web site that showed me a picture of the part I wanted. The other web sites said it was no longer made. It was shipped out the day I ordered it, and took a minute to install it. Will order again from your company - great service - thanks.

We had a newly cracked handle on a 36 year old trash compactor.
Took under 5 minutes to unscrew old handle and screw on the new one. Identical part to old handle, compactor looks and works like new!

a plastic bag got caught around the screw and the flange on the nut broke so it couldn,t raise one side so the door was jamed at an angle
I pulled the unit out and tipped it over . I pulled the pan off the bottom then i could put a box end wrench on the screw that was jamed then tuned the screw to loosen the door . i then removed the plastic bag that was wrapped around the screw and put the new nut on and all fixed

Compactor was white, changed appliances to black, put front panel and footpedal on to update appearance.
It was quick and easy, even for someone with limited "honey-do" experience.

Power nuts stripped
Only needed a flat blade screwdriver and a socket set to remove the top and the "cages" that held the power nuts. Failed to properly restrain the ram but didn't effect the repair. Installed the new power nuts outside of the unit then placed the ram assembly on the worm screws and all was well. Applied grease to the worm screws after assembly.
