The Oven Rack is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. It provides a sturdy and reliable surface for baking and roasting a variety of dishes. Designed to fit perfectly within Whirlpool models, this rack ensures optimal air circulation around the food, contributing to even cooking and browning. 

Causes of a bad Oven Rack can include warping or damage from high heat, rusting from moisture exposure, or general wear and tear over time. Misshaping or instability can also result from placing too much weight on the rack or using it inappropriately.

Symptoms of a bad Oven Rack include:

• Difficulty sliding the rack in or out.
• Uneven cooking or baking due to improper leveling of the rack.
• The rack does not fit securely in the oven slots.
• Visible rust or damage, which could potentially contaminate food.

This electric broil element sits at the top of the oven cavity and provides the high, direct heat needed for broiling. Replace it to restore reliable top-down heating when the broiler won't heat or browns food unevenly. What it does:

• Delivers intense radiant heat from the top of the oven during Broil
• Engages for searing/browning; may also cycle during preheat on some models
• Common failure signs: no broil heat, weak or uneven browning, element doesn't glow, or visible blisters/cracks on the coil

• 1 broil element

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool completely
• Remove oven racks, take out mounting screws, and gently pull the element forward
• Transfer wires one at a time; support leads so they don't slip back behind the liner
• Ensure terminals are fully seated, secure the element, restore power, and test broil

The Oven Temperature Sensor Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This sensor is essential for monitoring the oven's internal temperature, ensuring that it reaches and maintains the correct temperature for baking and cooking. The sensor is approximately 7 inches long.

Symptoms of a bad oven temperature sensor include:

• The oven not reaching the set temperature
• Food cooking unevenly or not fully
• The oven overheating or underheating
• Error codes related to temperature issues
