Manufacturer Part Number: WPM0805101

The Fuse is an OEM part for Whirlpool microwaves. It is a crucial safety component designed to protect the microwave from electrical surges and potential short circuits by breaking the circuit if the current flow exceeds safe levels.

Causes of a bad microwave fuse can include electrical surges, faulty wiring, or normal wear and tear over time. A blown fuse will render the microwave inoperable, as it cuts off the power supply to prevent further damage or hazards.

Symptoms of a bad microwave fuse include:

  • The microwave not powering on
  • The microwave stopping mid-operation
  • No response from the control panel or keypad
  • Sudden loss of power during use

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

Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Fuse (Part Number: OEM18044016)

1 Answer

Paul, The only way to tell if it is the ceramic fuse would be to do a continuity test on the fuse. If there is no continuity the fuse is bad and would need to be replaced. In most cases on of the door switches.

Mark for Model Number Jenn Air JMC8100 ADB

Microwave stopped working mid-use. Would like to replace the fuse before turning it into garbage. Fuse is part AP4243229. Problem is that I've removed control panel and don't see old fuse. Can't figure where it is located in this unit (part diagram also not helpful). Next step would be to remove outer metal case, but 2 of the 5 screws are specialty (they are star shaped, with a raised dot in the middle that prevents using a regular star-shape screwdriver bit). Any idea on how to remove screws to see if I can find the fuse? Or is there another way to locate the fuse through the front (control panel), since that is all open now.

Hello Mark. You need to use a tamper proof torx bit to remove those screws and the outer cover to access and replace the fuse in the unit.
