This GE Microwave Diode (WB27X1160) is a genuine part specifically designed for GE microwaves. It features a 1/4" female connection and an eyelet, making it an essential component for regulating electrical current within your microwave. Also known as a High-Voltage Diode, this part ensures that your appliance operates safely and efficiently by controlling the flow of electrical current. High-voltage capacitors in microwaves can retain a lethal charge even when the appliance is unplugged, highlighting the critical role of the diode in maintaining operational safety. If your microwave experiences any of the following symptoms: inconsistent cooking times, failure to start, or any electrical irregularities, a faulty diode may be the cause. Replacing the diode is recommended to maintain the safety and functionality of your microwave. Before purchasing, double-check your microwave's model number to guarantee the best fit.
