The 40W Light Bulb is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool microwave ovens. It is a standard-size bulb designed to provide illumination inside the microwave cavity, allowing you to easily view and monitor the cooking or reheating process.

Symptoms of a faulty microwave light bulb include:

• Dimming or flickering light during operation
• Complete bulb failure or no illumination within the cavity
• Discoloration or physical damage to the bulb itself

Causes of a bad microwave light bulb can include normal wear and tear over time, electrical surges or voltage fluctuations, or physical impact or vibration during use.

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore microwave oven models.

The Fan Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool microwaves. This fan motor is responsible for circulating air through the venting system. It works to evacuate fumes, smoke, and odors from the cooking area and direct them outside through the vent hood.

Causes of a bad fan motor can include excess dust or debris buildup hindering performance, bearing wear over time, or failure of electronic motor components.

Symptoms of a bad fan motor include:

• Inadequate or no air flow from the vent hood
• Strange noises coming from the vent system
• Reduced hood lighting levels
• Overheating or burning smells detected from the cooking surface or vent hood

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

Replacement plate that restores fit and finish for compatible Whirlpool appliances. Install to replace a cracked, warped, or cosmetically damaged plate and help maintain proper component alignment and appearance. What it does:

• Replaces a damaged or worn plate to restore the appliance's original coverage and appearance.
• Helps prevent gaps where food, grease, or debris can collect around the affected area.
• Maintains proper alignment and support for adjacent parts that rely on the plate for mounting or spacing.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair.
• Use basic hand tools and follow the OEM diagram for correct orientation and fastener locations.
• Inspect mounting hardware and any gaskets; replace separately if worn or damaged.

This Charcoal Filter is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool microwaves. The charcoal filter is responsible for improving the air quality in the kitchen by removing impurities and odors from the air. It is used to remove smoke, grease, and cooking odors as it is drawn up through the vent fan. By trapping these particles, the filter helps maintain cleaner air in the kitchen and prevents odors from recirculating and affecting the taste and smell of your food.

Causes of a bad Charcoal Filter include saturation from absorbing smoke and odors over time, accumulation of grease and particles that clog the filter, leading to decreased effectiveness, and physical damage that compromises its ability to filter air properly.

Symptoms of a bad Charcoal Filter include:

• Persistent odors in the kitchen after cooking.
• Smoke not being effectively vented out during microwave use.
• Reduced airflow from the microwave's venting system.

Replacing the charcoal filter at regular intervals or when these symptoms are noticed ensures that your microwave continues to operate efficiently and keeps your kitchen air clean. This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This microwave magnetron is the high-voltage tube that creates the microwave energy used to heat and cook food. Replace it to restore heat when the unit runs but doesn't heat or makes an unusually loud electrical hum.

• Produces the microwave energy that cooks food inside the oven cavity
• Common failure sign: microwave runs but does not heat
• May be accompanied by a loud humming/buzzing or a burning odor near the magnetron area
• Note: Similar no-heat symptoms can also be caused by the high-voltage diode, capacitor, or transformer—diagnose before replacing

• Unplug the microwave and discharge the high-voltage capacitor before servicing; lethal voltage is present
• Access typically requires removing the outer cabinet; document wire locations and screw positions for reassembly
• Handle the ceramic antenna carefully; ensure the waveguide cover/seal and all shielding screws are intact and reinstalled

• Shields nearby wiring and components around the lamp area
• Helps position the light for proper illumination inside the compartment
• Common signs of wear: cracked or melted housing, loose bulb fit, lens/cover won't stay attached, intermittent lighting from a poor physical connection
