• Manages program logic and cycle sequencing
• Distributes power to motors, valves, heaters, and fans as commanded
• Interfaces with the user controls/display and monitors sensors and switches
• Common failure symptoms: won't power on or start, unresponsive buttons, cycle won't advance or ends immediately, erratic lights/display, or recurring error codes

• 1 electronic control board

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug before servicing; if the appliance uses gas, shut off the gas supply
• Use ESD protection; handle the board by the edges and avoid touching circuitry
• Photograph wiring and move connectors one at a time to the matching terminals

The Control Board is an OEM part for Whirlpool microwave and wall oven combinations. It is responsible for managing and coordinating the various functions of the appliance, including temperature regulation, cooking modes, and timing.

Over time, exposure to high heat and regular usage can lead to malfunctions. Physical damage or power surges can also cause the control board to fail.

Symptoms of a bad Control Board include:

• Unresponsive touchpad or display
• Inconsistent temperature control
• Error codes displayed
• The appliance not turning on or off properly

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Thermal Fuse is an OEM part for Whirlpool electric wall ovens and ranges. It acts as a safety cutoff switch if excessive internal temperatures are reached.

Causes of a bad thermal fuse can involve repeated heating and cooling cycles degrading internal wiring contacts and insulation over many years. Physical damage during cleaning may also crack casing components.

Symptoms of a bad thermal fuse include:

• Inability to heat or maintain set temperatures
• Circuit breakers that trip unexpectedly  
• Visible burn marks near internal wiring
• Electronic displays or clocks that no longer function

Replacing with a Whirlpool OEM thermal fuse safeguards cooking elements from overheating while preserving appliance dependability. Compatible brands include KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and select Kenmore wall oven models.
