Parts for Kitchenaid KDRS463VSS02: 02 - Burner Box, Gas Valves, And Switches Parts

The Oven Temperature Sensor is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This component is responsible for monitoring the oven's internal temperature, sending data to the control board to maintain the desired cooking temperature. It ensures accurate temperature readings, which are essential for baking, roasting, and other cooking functions. 

Causes of a bad Oven Temperature Sensor include prolonged exposure to high temperatures, which can degrade its responsiveness over time. Additionally, physical damage or wear and tear can lead to inaccurate temperature readings.

Symptoms of a bad Oven Temperature Sensor include:

• The oven temperature is inconsistent with the setting.
• Food is not cooking evenly or as expected.
• The oven fails to reach the set temperature, or it overshoots it significantly.
• Error codes related to temperature regulation appear on the oven's display.

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 manifold routes water from the household supply to the refrigerator dispenser and icemaker, restoring reliable water flow and dispensing. It replaces a worn or cracked supply manifold to stop leaks and intermittent or no-water dispenser operation. What it does:

• Directs and distributes water to the dispenser and icemaker assemblies.
• Replaces cracked or damaged manifold sections that cause leaks.
• Helps restore steady water flow when dispenser output is weak or intermittent.
• Works with the refrigerator's water valve and tubing connections.

• Turn off power and shut off the refrigerator water supply before starting.
• Inspect and replace any worn tubing, seals, or mounting hardware as needed.
• Use basic hand tools; avoid overtightening fittings to prevent damage.

This burner valve controls gas flow to a single surface burner, restoring proper ignition and flame control for your cooktop. It's the OEM-style valve used where a single valve failed or leaks. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to one surface burner so the burner lights and maintains a steady flame.
• Replaces a worn, stuck, or leaking valve that can prevent a burner from igniting or holding a flame.
• Helps correct low or inconsistent flame height caused by valve malfunction.
• Works with standard gas cooktop valve assemblies compatible with the listed part number.

• Turn off the gas supply and unplug the appliance before beginning any repair.
• Use proper fittings and thread sealant where required; check manufacturer guidance for torque.
• After installation, test for leaks with a safe leak-detection method (soapy water or a gas sniffer).

This replacement burner box is the structural housing that holds a gas range's burners and related components, restoring safe alignment and containment for proper burner operation and heat distribution. What it does

• Replaces a damaged or corroded housing that holds the surface or top burners
• Restores proper burner alignment so flames and heat are directed correctly
• Helps stop gas or flame from contacting surrounding components when intact
• Addresses symptoms like visible box damage, uneven flames, or burner instability

• One replacement burner box (single unit)

• Turn off gas and electricity to the appliance before beginning work
• Installation may require removing the cooktop or burner components and re-sealing gas fittings
• Inspect and replace gaskets, screws, or mounting hardware as needed

The Drip Tray is an OEM component designed specifically for Whirlpool ranges. Located underneath the range's bottom heating elements, the tray collects moisture, melted cheese, or other baked-on messes during cooking. Its indented surface area and angled drainage grooves route debris toward an easily removed drip cup.

Causes of a bad drip tray can include scorched grease that accumulation makes thorough cleaning difficult or impact dents that cause leakage. 

Symptoms of a bad drip tray include:

• Excessive residue buildup outside the designated drainage path  
• Stains or water marks appearing on surrounding cabinetry
• Drip cup overflowing due to impaired drainage route
• Difficulty removing tray for cleaning of hardened messes

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

This single simmer burner valve controls gas flow to a single low/simmer burner, restoring consistent low-heat operation and safe flame adjustment. Direct-fit replacement when the simmer burner won't light or holds only high flame. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to the low/simmer burner for stable, low-heat cooking
• Replaces a worn or leaking valve that can cause an uneven or nonfunctional simmer flame
• Helps stop slow gas leaks at the control port when the valve is faulty
• Works with the range/stove valve assembly to restore normal burner control

• One burner valve (single simmer)

• Turn off gas supply and unplug the appliance before servicing
• Handle gas components carefully; inspect and replace any damaged seals or gaskets
• Installation may require disassembling the cooktop and/or valve manifold

The Whirlpool screw is an OEM replacement part responsible for securing various components or parts on different types of Whirlpool appliances. The screw is designed to provide a secure and reliable fastening connection, ensuring that different parts of the appliance stay in place. It is commonly used in different locations within the appliance, such as the cabinet, panels, or other structural elements.

This part fixes the following symptoms:

• Loose or wobbly components within the appliance
• Panels or parts that are not securely attached
• Rattling or unusual noises due to loose parts
• Damaged or missing screw

The Whirlpool screw can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This dual burner valve controls gas flow to two cooktop burners, restoring reliable ignition and heat control for gas ranges. It replaces a worn or leaking valve assembly to help stop burner failure and gas odors. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to two burners so burners light and hold a steady flame
• Stops common symptoms like burners not lighting or weak/intermittent flames
• Helps prevent gas leaks when seals and valve seats are functioning correctly
• Used when clicking/ignition occurs but burners fail to sustain flame

• Shut off gas supply and power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Inspect and replace any damaged gaskets or fittings; use proper thread sealant where required by the manufacturer.
• Tighten connections to specified torque and test all fittings for leaks with a soapy water solution or approved detector.

This 1/2" female adapter is a threaded plumbing connector that lets a 1/2" male water line or fitting join the appliance inlet safely and securely. It provides a simple, durable connection to restore proper water flow. What it does:

• Adapts a 1/2" male threaded water supply to the appliance's inlet fitting
• Restores a secure, leak-free connection when the original fitting is damaged or missing
• Commonly used where a reliable, compact threaded coupling is needed
• Can help stop drips or leaks caused by worn or corroded connectors

• One 1/2" female adapter

• Turn off the water supply and unplug the appliance before installing
• Use plumber's tape on threads for a reliable seal unless the OEM instructions specify otherwise
• Hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading, then tighten with an appropriate wrench; avoid over-tightening
• Check connections for leaks after restoring water and operation
