Is part number for thermostat ap4564957 Thanks Thomas Thomas, The thermostats you're interested in are located on the bottom of the microwave cabinet, behind the control panel inside the component cavity. You'll need to remove the control panel to access them. You'll be working near and around some high voltage components so be very careful, and don't touch anything other than the thermostats. We had some difficulties, using the model number you supplied, even in the manufacturers web site, so you may need to recheck and verify the information. Thanks

Part number: AP4564954
Once you access them, one thermostat will be a "closed" circuit. This is the safety thermostat, if the microwave gets too hot, it opens and removes power to the machine. The other thermostat will be an "open" circuit when the machine gets hot, or when cooking on the stove, the thermostat will close, and turn on the vent fan to cool the unit.
