Customer Questions and Answers for Thermal Fuse by Whirlpool

4.89 (64)
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: OEM18042057
Manufacturer Part Number: WP9759243

The Upper Oven Thermal Fuse is an OEM part compatible with Whirlpool double wall ovens. Located near the upper oven heating element, this safety device protects the upper oven cavity from excessive heat rises. If temperatures get too high, the fuse automatically cuts power to prevent overheating.

Symptoms of a blown upper oven thermal fuse include:

  • The upper oven failing to heat or losing total heating function
  • Burning smells emanating from the upper oven cavity
  • Safety shutdown errors related to over-temperature conditions

Common causes are airflow restriction trapping heat or faulty wiring allowing overheating. Natural aging also deteriorates fuses over extended use cycles.

Compatible brands include KitchenAid, Jenn-Air and some Kenmore wall oven models.

Tim for Model Number RBD307PVS00

Control panel is acting up. It will light up for a while, then when I start to cook something the panel will blank out and the oven will shut off. After several hours the panel will light up again. When the panel blanks out, all the buttons still beep but do nothing else. The one exception is the oven light which still comes on. Holding down the clock button for a few seconds yields one beep. Holding down most other buttons yields three beeps. Shutting off the power and back on again at the breaker changes nothing. How do I trouble shoot this? Thanks.

Answer

Tim, It would be recommended to test the transformer for the control board to make sure that it is good by testing 120 Vac into the transformer and 24 Vac out of the transformer. If there is proper voltage then also check to make sure that when the oven is set that the cooling fan is coming on and if this is good then the issue will be a faulty control board.
