This surface cooktop element provides the heating source for electric ranges and replaces a damaged or non-working burner to restore normal cooking heat. Designed to match OEM fit and function for compatible Whirlpool ranges. What it does:

• Heats cookware for stovetop cooking when the burner control is turned on
• Replaces a burned-out or broken surface element that no longer heats
• Can resolve symptoms like no heat from the burner, intermittent heating, or visible damage to the element
• Restores even heating when the original element has hot spots or partial failure

• Remove the old element by unplugging the connector or detaching mounting hardware, then connect the new element securely

The Motor-Fan is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool kitchen ranges. Located within the back wall of the oven cavity, the motor fan works to circulate air and remove excess moisture and smoke during the cooking process. Proper motor-fan functioning helps ensure efficient oven ventilation and performance.

Symptoms of a bad motor fan include:

• Excessive smoke or moisture left in the oven after cooking  
• Oven taking longer to preheat and cook due to poor air circulation
• Loud buzzing or grinding noises emanating from the fan

Causes of failure are normally wear and tear of motor windings or fan blade bearings from years of continuous use. Overheating can potentially reduce lifespan as well. 

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

This retaining nut secures components on compatible Whirlpool appliances to restore proper fastening and reduce looseness. A simple replacement for stripped or missing nuts that helps stop rattling and keeps parts held in place. What it does:

• Commonly used where a small, serviceable nut is required for secure assembly
• Helps prevent components from coming detached during normal use

• Disconnect power and follow appliance-specific safety procedures before servicing
• Use the correct size wrench or socket; start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten securely but avoid overtightening to prevent damage to studs or mating parts
• If threads are damaged, replace the mating stud or fastener as needed
