Parts for Kitchenaid KHMS2040WBL2: 02 - Door Parts

Genuine Whirlpool door handle that restores a secure grip and the appliance's original appearance, making it easier to open and close the door while replacing cracked, broken, or missing handles. What it does

• Provides a firm, ergonomic pull for opening and closing the appliance door.
• Replaces cracked, broken, loose, or missing handles that cause wobble or difficulty opening.
• Restores the door's original fit and appearance for a cleaner, finished look.
• Durable construction resists everyday wear and returns the intended function of the door.

• Safety first: disconnect power (and water supply for units with dispensers) before starting any repair.
• Remove old handle by loosening visible screws or releasing mounting clips; keep any original fasteners if they are reusable.
• Align handle mounting tabs or screw holes, then secure evenly—do not overtighten fasteners to avoid cracking the handle.
