Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This ignition microswitch (SSPA0384) is designed for Thetford gas cookers, specifically including the Spinflo range. Always verify your cooker's model and check existing parts for compatibility before purchasing.

Setup: Installation involves carefully disassembling the control panel of your gas cooker to access the old microswitch.
