This is a Whirlpool microwave/oven combo control panel assembly. This control panel is intended for installation on wall-style ovens. The control panel assembly contains the controls and circuit board that dictate the functions of the microwave and stove. It is essential to have a properly functioning assembly and control board to ensure satisfactory heating.Always test with a voltage meter before diagnosing an appliance issue. When the control board begins to malfunction, all or some of the appliance's functions may start to fail. This can happen over time or all at once, depending on the severity of the malfunction. Baking and broiling may work periodically, certain microwave functions may not work, or the backlight on the timer area may go out. Unplug the electrical source and slide the unit out from the wall. Open the lower area and locate the two bottom screws that fasten the trim in place around the unit. This will allow removal from the perimeter of the entire appliance. Moving to the top where the control panel is, locate the two screws on the bottom of the control panel assembly. Removing these will free the assembly, and the wire harness can be disconnected. Connect the new component and replace the screws and trim.This part is compatible with Whirlpool and KitchenAid appliances.

Oven won't turn on or displays error codes? The electronic control board manages all oven functions. Moderate difficulty repair, requires disconnecting power.
