Parts for Kitchenaid KESS907XSP02: 01 - Cooktop Parts

The Anti Tip Bracket is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool ranges. This bracket plays a crucial safety role in preventing the range from accidentally tipping over if excessive weight is applied to the open oven door. 

The anti-tip bracket secures tightly to the floor or wall behind the range, linking it securely in place. It allows the oven door to function while ensuring the entire appliance remains stable even under heavy use. 

Causes of a bad bracket can include damage, deterioration of mounting hardware over time, or failure to install properly according to manufacturer instructions. 

Symptoms of a faulty anti-tip bracket include:

• The range appears unsecured and able to wobble or rock backward 
• Looseness between the bracket and mounting surface
• Cracks or breaks in the anti-tip bracket material

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

This gasket bracket secures the oven/range gasket to the appliance, helping keep the gasket aligned and maintaining a tighter seal for more consistent cooking and reduced heat/steam escape. What it does:

• Holds the oven/range gasket in place so the gasket stays seated against the cavity
• Helps prevent gasket sagging or detachment that can allow heat or steam to escape
• Supports a proper door seal to reduce uneven baking or longer cook times due to heat loss
• Useful when the original bracket is bent, broken, or missing

• One gasket bracket

• Always disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) and let the appliance fully cool before servicing
• Access may require removing the oven door or an access panel; keep the gasket protected during installation
• Use common hand tools; replace the gasket if it shows wear or damage

This fixed thermostat switches near 60C to control a heat-managed circuit—often the oven's cooling/blower fan. Replacing a failed unit restores proper fan cycling and helps protect the control area from excessive heat during and after cooking.

• Monitors temperature in the oven cabinet/control area and switches power based on heat level
• Cycles the cooling/blower fan on and off to manage cabinet temperature
• Helps safeguard electronic controls from heat buildup
• Failure may cause symptoms such as a fan that won't run, a fan that runs continuously, or an unusually hot control area

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access the thermostat per your model; it is typically mounted to a plenum or bracket near the oven cavity
• Move wires one at a time and mount the new thermostat flat against the surface for accurate sensing
• Restore power and verify the fan cycles during operation

This dual radiant surface element restores even, responsive heat to a smooth-top range or cooktop. It replaces a failed burner so the inner and outer rings heat correctly for dependable everyday cooking.

• Provides heat to a dual-size cooking zone beneath the glass surface
• Works with the surface control to use the inner ring alone or both inner and outer rings
• Common symptoms: burner won't heat, only one ring heats, slow or uneven heating, visible scorching or damage on the element
• Helps restore consistent temperature control and full dual-ring operation

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; elements carry high current
• Lift or remove the cooktop to access the element
• Note wire locations and transfer any mounting brackets/clips from the old element
• Center the element under the burner outline and secure all connections before restoring power

This replacement screw secures appliance panels and components so they stay tight and aligned during use. Replacing a missing or damaged screw restores a solid fit and helps eliminate rattles, loose trim, or shifting parts.

• Fastens brackets, panels, trim, or components to the appliance chassis
• Helps correct loose or missing hardware after vibration or service
• Replaces stripped, rusted, or broken screws
• Can reduce rattling noises or misaligned parts caused by missing fasteners

• Disconnect power; for gas appliances, also shut off the gas supply
• Support the part being fastened; start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Use the correct driver size; tighten snugly without overtightening
• Replace hardware with the exact part number to ensure proper fit

• Provides return tension for moving parts so doors, levers, or linkages operate correctly
• Helps maintain correct alignment and prevents sagging or binding
• Replaces worn or stretched springs that cause sluggish or uneven operation
• Common symptom: assembly won't return to its resting position or feels loose

• One tension spring

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before beginning any repair
• Use care handling springs under tension; wear eye protection
• Remove any retaining clips or brackets in the order shown in the service diagram
