Charles J September 30, 2013 for Model Number KEMC378KSS02 I am trying to get the correct part numbers for the torsion springs on my Kitchen Aid stainless microwave oven. I was given AP3046481, but when I asked about RH/LH, your advisor says that some SS models use AP3082257 (RH) and AP3137553 (LH). Could you tell me what I need for this oven? Also, are their any pictures or instructions before I tear into the door to replace them?
1 Answer Charles, The Torsion spring for the LH side is part number WP4452395 and the RH side would be part number WP4451008 Read More...

Anley February 05, 2013 for Model Number KEMC308KSS0 Hi, I'm a bit confused about the correct part number. Trying to replace the torsion springs in my Kitchenaid Superba combo microwave Model KEMC308KSS0 (stainless steel model). I ordered and received the LH spring (part no. 4452395) and RH spring (part no. 4452398). But then in reading some of the forum comments, some say that the correct RH spring is part no. 4452396 (with a blue tip). Does anyone know the correct RH spring part number, and whether 4452398 will do the job? Thanks in advance, Anley
1 Answer Hello Anley, You will need to order WP4452396 for the stainless door model. The other spring is to weak. Read More...
