Parts for Whirlpool UXI6536BSS2: Hood Parts

This hood damper mounts at the exhaust outlet to let cooking air exit while blocking backdrafts when the fan is off. Replacing a worn damper restores proper airflow and helps eliminate rattling or sticking during vent operation.

• Controls one-way airflow from the hood into the duct; seals when the fan is off
• Helps block outside air and moisture from entering through the vent
• Wear or damage can cause poor venting, rattling noises, or a stuck exterior flap
• Restores vent performance after the original damper is bent, warped, or missing

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access the exhaust outlet and remove the old damper; note airflow orientation
• Install so the flap swings freely and seats closed; avoid overtightening fasteners
• Run the fan to verify smooth damper movement and proper airflow

This replacement light bulb restores bright, dependable illumination in your appliance, making it easier to see contents and controls. Replace a burned-out or flickering bulb to bring lighting back to normal day-to-day operation.

• Supplies interior or work-area lighting when the door opens or the light switch is turned on
• Restores visibility for monitoring, loading/unloading, and cleaning
• Typical failure symptoms: no light, dim or flickering light, intermittent lighting, or visibly darkened/broken glass

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Allow the existing bulb and surrounding area to cool completely
• Remove any lens or cover as designed; install the new bulb carefully and do not overtighten
• Match the bulb type and ratings specified by the appliance manufacturer or on the original bulb/label

The Grease Filter is an OEM part for Whirlpool range hoods. This part traps grease particles from the air as it circulates through the range hood, preventing grease buildup on the blower and other internal components, thus maintaining the efficiency and longevity of the range hood.

Causes of a bad grease filter can include clogging from excessive grease accumulation, physical damage from improper cleaning or handling, and general wear and tear over time.

Symptoms of a bad grease filter include:

• Reduced air flow from the range hood
• Visible grease buildup on or around the filter
• Unusual odors persisting in the kitchen
• Filter appearing worn or damaged

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

This replacement light bulb restores interior illumination inside your appliance. Swap it in for a burned-out bulb so you can clearly see contents and monitor operation when the door opens or the light button is pressed.

• Provides interior light inside the appliance cavity
• Direct replacement for a failed or broken bulb
• Common symptoms: no light when the door opens, flickering/intermittent light, visibly darkened or broken bulb

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Allow the old bulb and nearby surfaces to cool completely
• Remove any lens or cover to access the socket; install the new bulb in the same orientation as the original
• Handle with clean, dry hands or gloves; do not overtighten. Restore power and test

This run capacitor helps the appliance's motor start and run smoothly by providing a phase-shifted electrical boost. Replacing a worn capacitor restores reliable motor operation and can stop start-up problems and irregular running. What it does:

• Provides the motor with the extra electrical charge needed for starting and stable operation
• Commonly linked to symptoms like hard-starting, a loud humming motor, or motors that won't start
• Stabilizes motor speed and reduces stress on the motor and start components
• Works as a direct replacement for the original capacitor specified for the motor circuit

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock hazard
• Discharge the capacitor before touching terminals; capacitors can hold a charge after power is removed
• Use insulated tools and avoid bridging terminals during handling

The Blower Fan is an OEM part for Whirlpool range hoods. It works to remove smoke, grease, odors, and other cooking byproducts from the air by induction. The high-powered centrifugal fan works together with the grease filter to deliver effective ventilation.

Causes can be normal wear and tear of moving parts over time, debris accumulation that prevents free rotation, or electrical failures in the motor or wiring.

Symptoms of a bad blower fan include:

• Reduced or ineffective airflow while the hood is in use
• Strange noises or vibrations coming from the fan housing area
• Failure of the fan to turn on or spin up to speed

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

This duct kit provides the exhaust connection needed to route appliance airflow to a home vent, helping maintain proper venting and reduce moisture and lint buildup for safer, more efficient operation. What it does

• Connects the appliance exhaust outlet to the home vent, creating a secure airflow path
• Helps restore proper airflow that can reduce long drying times or poor ventilation
• Minimizes gaps where lint and moisture can escape into the cabinet or room
• Works with standard rigid or flexible venting to complete a proper exhaust run

• Always disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before accessing or servicing the appliance.
• Follow all local venting codes and the appliance manufacturer's installation instructions.
• Ensure all connections are tight and supported; avoid crushing or sharp bends that restrict airflow.
• Use appropriate clamps or fastening hardware and inspect for leaks after installation.

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
