Kitchenaid Range KDRP407HSS1 Won't start or doesn't start

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.

Replacement electrode that creates the spark needed to light a gas range or cooktop burner, restoring reliable ignition and consistent burner operation for safe, predictable cooking. What it does

• Produces the spark at the burner to ignite gas when the control is turned on.
• Replaces a cracked, fouled, or non-sparking electrode that prevents burners from lighting.
• Can resolve weak, intermittent, or no-ignition symptoms and reduce continuous clicking.
• Works as the ignition element for the cooktop/range burner assembly.

• Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply before starting any service; allow the appliance to cool completely.
• Handle the ceramic tip and wiring gently—do not force or bend the electrode.
• Use basic hand tools to access and secure the electrode; confirm correct alignment and tight mounting.
