WTD: GE # WB24x5181 (microwave temperature sensor - used okay)

x-no-archive: yes

Looking for an old NOS or even a used microwave temperature sensor
(thermistor) # WB24x5181.

Was originally used in models older JET320001, JET340001, and
JET3400D1 and is now NLA.

This is an old 1984 GE made by Panasonic but they swear by it and want
it fixed.

Cold resistance is about 500K. Something close to the original is also
acceptable to this customer.

Thanks very much.

Why do you want this purged? Part number information is always useful
for future reference.

Okay, I'm leaving this for the ages. *wink*

I went through some old Panasonic & Quasar manuals and it looks like
there are a few numbers that should be close enough:

A605Y4210AP, A605Y4210AQ & A605Y5450QP, are all replaced by # R8600-1,
which works for a ton of models and is cheap enough to try.

The manuals say this should read 360-800k ohms over a respective
temperature range of 50°F/10°C to 90°F/32°C.

Anyone knows how to reach William Miller?
I don't get a reply to emails or phone calls for a Microwave display I
sent hin to repair last week...
