This motor run capacitor helps the appliance motor start and run more smoothly, restoring proper motor performance and reducing hum or startup problems. It's a direct-replacement electrical component used in compatible Whirlpool appliances. What it does:

• Provides the phase-shifted current the motor needs to start and maintain normal operation
• Helps reduce motor humming, slow starts, or intermittent motor stalls
• Restores proper motor torque and efficiency when the original capacitor has failed
• Works as the electrical timing/storing component for motor cycles

• One motor run capacitor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting replacement to avoid electrical shock
• Discharge the capacitor before touching terminals; use insulated tools and follow safe procedures
• Match terminal configuration and mounting to the original part

This push-button switch is a user control switch that closes an electrical circuit when pressed, restoring reliable button operation on the appliance console or door. It replaces a worn or failed push-button for responsive controls. What it does

• Acts as the user push-button that completes the circuit to send a start or control signal
• Commonly used on console or door-mounted control panels
• Symptoms when faulty: button(s) feel stuck, intermittently work, or the appliance fails to respond to button presses
• Restores tactile button operation and reliable electrical contact when replaced

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Remove the console or door panel to access the switch per your model's service instructions
• Handle the switch and wiring gently; avoid bending contacts or pulling wires by the harness
• Test the new switch with a multimeter if desired and verify proper operation before reassembly

This duct cover extension kit raises a range hood's chimney to fit taller ceilings and gives a finished look where the standard chimney is too short. It provides an easy way to extend the visible duct cover for a cleaner installation. What it does:

• Covers exposed ductwork for a finished appearance
• Helps align the duct cover with cabinetry and ceiling lines
• Useful when replacing or modifying hood installation height

• Turn off power to the hood before beginning any work
• Follow the manufacturer's instructions and use proper fasteners for your wall/ceiling type
• Do not alter structural supports or ventilation openings; consult local codes

This duct kit redirects an appliance's exhaust to the home vent, restoring proper airflow and reducing backdrafting. It's a direct-fit transition piece that helps the appliance vent safely and efficiently. What it does:

• Provides a finished transition between the appliance exhaust outlet and the home ducting
• Channels hot, moist air out of the appliance to prevent poor drying or cooking odors
• Helps reduce lint buildup and backpressure when installed correctly
• Restores proper venting when damaged, bent, or missing transition pieces are causing performance issues

• Disconnect power (and gas supply if present) before starting any work
• Seal all joints with UL-rated foil tape or approved clamps to prevent leaks

This filter traps cooking grease and airborne particles as air moves through your appliance's ventilation system. It helps protect the blower and internal surfaces and supports proper airflow for effective venting during everyday cooking.

• Captures grease and debris from cooking vapors to reduce buildup on internal components
• Helps maintain ventilation airflow and fan performance
• Replace if the mesh is torn, warped, heavily clogged, or no longer stays seated
• Common symptoms include reduced airflow, lingering smoke or odors, and visible grease accumulation

• Disconnect power and allow surfaces to cool before servicing
• Access the filter from the underside of the hood or over-the-range unit
• Release retaining tabs or screws, remove the old filter, and slide the new filter into place
• Ensure the filter is fully seated and secured before restoring power
