Symptoms of a bad panel-control include:

• Buttons that are unresponsive or do not input commands
• Displays that do not illuminate or show inaccurate readings
• Inability to power on the wall oven or access cooking functions
• Unintended start or stop of cooking cycles

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