Parts for Kitchenaid KESS908SPS06: 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 replacement part is an electronic control panel. This electronic control board displays certain settings to the user during use and allows them to alter the controls as needed and according to their preferences. A new electronic control board might be needed if the connection has become worn down between the panel and the machine. If the display is no longer showing information about the settings during use, it might be best to replace the part. If the current control assembly is no longer responsive, it should be replaced as soon as possible.This is a genuine OEM replacement part made by Whirlpool and sold individually.

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

Screw for control panel.

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 surface heating element replaces a worn or broken cooktop coil to restore even, reliable heat for stovetop cooking. Fits as the outer/inner dual-size top burner used on many Whirlpool-style electric ranges. What it does

• Heats cookware when energized; supports both outer and inner heating zones on dual-size burners
• Restores a burner that won't heat, heats slowly, or only heats on one coil section
• Provides consistent surface contact for even cooking across the active element
• Works with standard range burner receptacles and terminals

• Turn off and disconnect power at the breaker before servicing the cooktop to avoid shock hazard
• Remove the drip pan and lift the element straight out of the burner receptacle; reinstall by aligning and seating terminals securely
• Handle with care to avoid bending terminals or damaging the element; do not force connections

This 1500W ribbon surface element is a direct-replacement electric cooktop burner that restores even, consistent heat for everyday cooking. Designed to match OEM specs and replace a damaged or non-heating surface element quickly. What it does:

• Produces heat for pans and cookware at the cooktop's mid-power burner location
• Replaces an element that won't heat, heats unevenly, or has visible damage
• Provides the ribbon-style heating element used on many electric ranges for consistent surface temperature
• Helps restore normal surface control knob function when the element is the faulty component

• Disconnect power at the breaker and ensure the cooktop is cool before starting
• Handle the element carefully to avoid bending terminals or damaging insulation
• Verify terminal connections are secure and match the original wiring layout

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

This electronic control board operates the cooktop's touch-sensitive triple-zone controls, restoring responsive touch commands and zone selection for reliable cooking control. Replaces a failed or unresponsive touch control module to regain normal user interface function. What it does:

• Interprets touch-pad inputs and sends control signals to the cooktop's heating elements and indicators
• Restores responsiveness when touch controls are intermittent, unresponsive, or display incorrect settings
• Helps re-enable zone selection, temperature adjustments, and timer functions controlled through the touch interface
• Common symptom: cooktop touchpad not responding, display errors, or zones not activating

• Disconnect power at the breaker before accessing the cooktop control area to avoid shock
• Handle the board by its edges and avoid touching components or connector pins to prevent static damage
• Verify connector alignment and secure all wiring before restoring power; test functions after installation

This replacement tension spring restores proper tension and movement for the linked assembly, helping components return to position and operate smoothly. Designed to match the original spring's shape and function for reliable performance. What it does:

• 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
