The Thermal Fuse is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. It acts as a safety device that cuts off power to the oven if it overheats, preventing potential damage or fire hazards.

Causes of a bad thermal fuse can include prolonged exposure to high temperatures, electrical surges, or faulty oven components that cause overheating. When the fuse blows, it disrupts the electrical circuit, rendering the oven inoperative until the fuse is replaced.

Symptoms of a bad Thermal Fuse include:

• The oven not heating up
• The control panel not lighting up
• The oven not turning on at all
• Sudden shutdowns during operation

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

The Terminal Block is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It serves as a crucial connection point for the range’s electrical wiring, ensuring a safe and reliable transfer of power to the appliance.

Over time, terminal blocks can deteriorate due to factors such as heat exposure, electrical surges, or wear and tear. When the terminal block becomes damaged or corroded, it can lead to poor electrical connections or potential safety hazards.

Symptoms of a bad terminal block include:

• Burnt or scorched connections
• Intermittent power loss to the range
• Difficulty in the range heating up properly
• Visible damage or corrosion on the terminal block

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

The Oven Temperature Sensor is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This component is responsible for monitoring the oven's internal temperature, sending data to the control board to maintain the desired cooking temperature. It ensures accurate temperature readings, which are essential for baking, roasting, and other cooking functions. 

Causes of a bad Oven Temperature Sensor include prolonged exposure to high temperatures, which can degrade its responsiveness over time. Additionally, physical damage or wear and tear can lead to inaccurate temperature readings.

Symptoms of a bad Oven Temperature Sensor include:

• The oven temperature is inconsistent with the setting.
• Food is not cooking evenly or as expected.
• The oven fails to reach the set temperature, or it overshoots it significantly.
• Error codes related to temperature regulation appear on the oven's display.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
