Kyle for Model Number kerc507ywh1 Please look at the second of two pictures you have provided above for this part. Pay particular attention to the connectors. The original part for my model (OEM part # 9750755) has been discontinued, and the part above is now being provided by Whirlpool as a direct replacement. The problem I am having is this: the connectors for the direct replacement part a situated differently than the original, and I am unsure about how to install the new part. Here are two pictures of my original part: http://bit.ly/rvS3p4 and http://bit.ly/uYdjnO As you can see, the connections, although similar in some ways, are clearly different. If you could help, I would appreciate it. Also, if you could provide me a wiring diagram, that would be extremely helpful. Thank you.
Answer Hello Kyle. You will plug the purple and the black wires on the back of the block in the same location as the original element. Then take the black wire, not the jumper, and plug it into the last spade on the side of the new element. Then the other black wire, goes to the terminal on the block under the purple wire. If wired this way, the element WP8203528 should work properly. Hope this helps. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, November 23, 2011
