The 00413608 is the OEM Bosch microwave fuse, designed as a direct replacement for select Bosch built-in microwave models. If your microwave is completely dead with no power, no display, and no response, a blown thermal fuse is the most common cause — and this is the correct OEM part to restore it.

✓ Compatible Models

The thermal fuse in a Bosch microwave is a one-time safety device that blows when the unit overheats or experiences a power surge. Once blown, it permanently breaks the circuit and the microwave will not power on at all. Replacing the fuse with OEM part 00413608 restores the circuit and full microwave operation, provided no other components were damaged by the same event.

✓ Common Symptoms Fixed

Microwave completely dead — no power, no display, no response — Microwave stopped working after power surge — Microwave won't turn on after overheating — No response when pressing any buttons

✓ Installation Tips

Unplug the microwave before beginning any repair — capacitors inside can hold a lethal charge even when unplugged; always discharge the capacitor before touching internal components. The fuse is typically located on the main power board or inline on the power harness. Locate the blown fuse (it will appear discolored or the filament will be visibly broken), disconnect the connectors, swap the fuse, and reassemble. If the new fuse blows immediately, a deeper fault (shorted magnetron, failed capacitor, or damaged diode) is the root cause and must be diagnosed before replacing the fuse again.
