• After installation, restore power and test broil function; replace oven light cover or insulation as needed

The Rack is an OEM part for Whirlpool wall ovens. It provides a durable surface for baking and cooking food items. These racks are engineered to maximize capacity while withstanding high heat.

Causes of a bad rack include standard wear and tear from regular cleaning cycles in addition to exposure to grease buildup despite cleaning. Racks support significant weight loads during cooking cycles.

Symptoms of a bad rack include:

• Visible bends, cracks, or detachment of rack elements
• Lack of support leads to spilled/dropped food safety concerns  
• Food or debris lodged in rack imperfections promotes residue buildup
• Compromised rack integrity reduces usable oven space for cooking

This Whirlpool OEM replacement rack directly fits the original location and restores full cooking functionality. Models also include Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and select Kenmore ovens for lasting performance.

This oven rack replaces a damaged or missing rack to restore safe, level support for your cookware. It slides into the oven's side supports so you can place pans at the right height for baking and roasting.

• Provides a sturdy, level surface for bakeware inside the oven cavity
• Slides along the side rails for easy loading and unloading
• Positions food at the desired height for proper cooking and air circulation
• Common signs it's needed: bent/warped wires, peeling finish or rust, instability, or difficulty seating/sliding

• Allow the oven to cool completely; wear gloves to avoid sharp edges; no tools required
• Insert the rear of the rack into the side supports at the desired level, then level and slide forward until fully seated
• Refer to your user manual for recommended rack positions and any self-cleaning guidance

This fan motor powers the cooling fan that moves air through your unit. Replacing a worn or noisy motor restores proper airflow to help maintain stable temperatures and reliable performance. What it does:

• Drives the fan blade to circulate air for cooling and temperature control
• Helps prevent component overheating caused by weak or stalled airflow
• Fixes: fan not running or starting intermittently
• Fixes: loud humming, grinding, or rattling from the fan area
• Fixes: longer run times or warm spots due to poor airflow

• Includes: 1 fan motor

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow moving parts to stop
• Note wire positions and motor orientation; take a photo for reference
• Transfer the existing fan blade and mounting hardware as needed
• After install, ensure the fan spins freely and no wiring contacts moving parts before restoring power

This convection fan blade mounts to the fan motor and circulates hot air during convection cycles. Replacing a bent or damaged blade restores proper airflow, promoting more even temperatures and consistent baking and roasting performance.

• Mounts on the convection motor shaft to drive airflow through the oven cavity
• Helps maintain uniform temperatures for consistent convection baking/roasting
• Typical failure signs: rattling or scraping noises, visible wobble or damaged fins, weak airflow, or the fan not spinning freely
• A worn blade can contribute to uneven results in convection mode

• Disconnect power and allow the appliance to cool completely before servicing
• Access the blade behind the interior fan cover or rear panel (varies by model); note blade orientation and any spacers/washers for reassembly
• Handle sharp edges; avoid bending fins and ensure the blade spins freely without rubbing before restoring power
• For microwave/OTR convection units, high-voltage components are present.

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

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the range before servicing to avoid shock
• Allow the element and cooktop to cool completely before removing or installing
• Remove the old element by unplugging the connector or detaching mounting hardware, then connect the new element securely

Color: brown. Its total length is about 25 inches.

The Whirlpool element mounting screw is an OEM replacement part responsible for securely fastening the heating element to the designated location inside the oven. This part ensures that the heating element remains firmly attached to the appliance's structure. The element mounting screw is crafted from durable materials to withstand high temperatures to provide a reliable and stable connection between the heating element and the oven.

This part fixes the following symptoms:

• Loose or wobbly heating element
• Uneven heating inside the oven
• Excessive vibrations or rattling noises during operation

The Whirlpool element mounting screw can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This replacement jack mounts inside the oven cavity and provides the receptacle for the food temperature probe. It restores a dependable connection so the control can monitor internal food temperature and operate probe-cook features as intended.

• Provides the in-oven receptacle for the food/meat temperature probe
• Carries the probe's signal to the control during probe-cook cycles
• Helps resolve issues where the control does not recognize a probe or the probe feature won't run
• Replaces a jack that is damaged, corroded, or loose

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool completely
• Access from inside the oven; remove the mounting screw(s) and carefully pull the jack to reach the wire harness
• Transfer/connect the harness and seat any gasket or insulation to maintain the oven cavity seal
• Do not overtighten fasteners; avoid pinching or damaging wires and insulation

A hex locknut used to secure rotating shafts and threaded fasteners on compatible appliances. Small but critical, it keeps components held firmly in place to prevent loosening during normal operation. What it does:

• Secures shafts, pulleys, or control components to prevent axial movement
• Stops parts from working loose due to vibration or regular use
• Can resolve symptoms like noisy operation, wobbling parts, or loose knobs/assemblies
• Provides a reliable threaded connection when paired with the correct mating fastener
