1 Whirlpool trash compactor 8 years old exact model number not listed, closest number has a 2 at the end instead of 1. Safe to assume parts are the same?2 unit makes a bang at the bottom of cycle (ram changing direction) and then sounds a bit "buzzy" until it fully retracts and stops. any comments on likely issue?
thanks!
Hello and thank you for writing.
Most of the parts will be the same but we would have to check that on a one by one basis.
It certainly sounds like it could be a faulty drive gear (kit)PS398589 and/or possibly a malfunctioning directional switch PS11744742, you should check the part(s) for signs of damage, and replace as necessary. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime if you require further assistance.

My trash compactor throws the breaker when you press the little switch at the bottom right. We replaced the breaker & the compactor worked for a few weeks & now it's throwing the breaker again. Which part should I check?
Hello Paul, thank you for reaching out. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest checking the drive motor, part number PS3652693, to solve the problem. A malfunctioning drive motor can draw excessive current, causing the breaker to trip. We hope this helps!

Just had to take off the front plate that was held on by a number of screws and replace the switch that was held on by two more screws. It had five wires attached to it, the new switch was clearly labeled as to which color wire went where.
