Parts for Whirlpool KMHC319EBL0: 02 - Control Panel Parts

This control panel is the exterior user interface that holds the selector buttons and display, restoring the appliance's normal control access and appearance. It's a direct-fit replacement for worn, cracked, or damaged panels. What it does:

• Provides the front housing for touchpads, knobs, and display components so you can select cycles and settings
• Restores damaged or cracked panel surfaces that interfere with normal operation or look
• Helps ensure buttons and indicators align correctly with underlying switches and electronics
• Commonly replaced when buttons stick, the face is cosmetically damaged, or the panel is broken

• One control panel — replaces the outer housing only

• Disconnect power (or unplug) before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Remove trim screws and any connected bezels to access and remove the old panel; handle gently to avoid damaging attached wiring
• This part covers the outer console; retain and reuse any internal switches, overlays, or electronics unless they are damaged and replaced separately
