The Control Panel is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. As the interface between the user and appliance, the control panel is responsible for housing all of the electronic controls and display that allow for selection and monitoring of oven functions like temperature, bake time, locks, and timers.
Causes of a bad control panel can include cracked or worn buttons or displays that no longer register touch input properly. Splashing liquids or steam exposure over time can cause internal circuitry issues as well.
Symptoms of a bad control panel include:
- Unresponsive or malfunctioning buttons
- Fading or inaccurate displays
- Error codes indicating electrical faults
- Inability to properly turn elements or functions on/off
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
