JennAir TC507 Trash Compactor Repair, 15-Inch Built-In
The TC507 is a 15-inch trash compactor, also sold as the TC507B, TC507B1 and TC507W. It is normally built into a base-cabinet run next to the sink, where the drawer sees daily use and the area around it picks up moisture and food residue.
Compactors age at the drawer and the drive. Tracks wear, the latch loosens, and the safety switch that confirms the drawer is shut can stop responding, so the unit refuses to run. We check the switch and latch first, then the drive chain or screw and the motor, and finally the odor filter. Since this is an older style of built-in unit, we confirm the exact model on the data plate first and explain which parts are still easy to obtain before any repair begins.
We give a written price before starting, and our repair work is covered by a 30-day workmanship warranty.
The drawer switch or latch may not be making contact, or the key switch is off. We test each in turn and adjust or replace the part that fails to signal the controls.
It is better not to. A stalled ram can jam the load or overheat the motor. Empty the drawer, switch it off and let us check the drive before running another cycle.
Usually, yes. The drawer, latch, switches and drive parts are mechanical and straightforward to service. We confirm the exact model on the data plate and tell you the price before ordering.
