The Anti Tip Bracket is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool ranges. This bracket plays a crucial safety role in preventing the range from accidentally tipping over if excessive weight is applied to the open oven door. 

The anti-tip bracket secures tightly to the floor or wall behind the range, linking it securely in place. It allows the oven door to function while ensuring the entire appliance remains stable even under heavy use. 

Causes of a bad bracket can include damage, deterioration of mounting hardware over time, or failure to install properly according to manufacturer instructions. 

Symptoms of a faulty anti-tip bracket include:

• The range appears unsecured and able to wobble or rock backward 
• Looseness between the bracket and mounting surface
• Cracks or breaks in the anti-tip bracket material

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

This convection element supplies heat for your oven's convection mode. Working with the convection fan, it circulates hot air to maintain even, consistent baking and roasting performance.

• Provides the heat source during convection cycles for circulated-air cooking
• Helps maintain uniform cavity temperature and even browning
• Restores convection function when the original element is open or damaged
• Common symptoms: convection not heating, fan runs but little/no heat, longer or uneven cook times in convection

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool completely
• Remove oven racks and the rear interior cover to access the element
• Remove mounting screws, pull the element forward, and transfer wires one at a time; ensure tight, secure connections
• Reinstall the cover, restore power, and run a brief convection test

This convection fan blade mounts to the fan motor and circulates hot air during convection cycles. Replacing a bent or damaged blade restores proper airflow, promoting more even temperatures and consistent baking and roasting performance.

• Mounts on the convection motor shaft to drive airflow through the oven cavity
• Helps maintain uniform temperatures for consistent convection baking/roasting
• Typical failure signs: rattling or scraping noises, visible wobble or damaged fins, weak airflow, or the fan not spinning freely
• A worn blade can contribute to uneven results in convection mode

• Disconnect power and allow the appliance to cool completely before servicing
• Access the blade behind the interior fan cover or rear panel (varies by model); note blade orientation and any spacers/washers for reassembly
• Handle sharp edges; avoid bending fins and ensure the blade spins freely without rubbing before restoring power
• For microwave/OTR convection units, high-voltage components are present.

• 1 wire harness assembly

• Disconnect electrical power before servicing; if applicable, also shut off water or gas supplies
• Photograph existing routing and connections to match the original layout during reassembly
• Route the new harness away from sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces; secure with existing clips/ties
• Seat each connector fully until locked; inspect mating terminals for heat damage and address as needed

This 10-32 terminal block nut fastens wire lugs to the appliance's terminal studs. Replacing a missing, stripped, or corroded nut restores a tight, reliable connection and helps prevent heat damage or intermittent power at the connection.

• Secures wire lugs to a 10-32 terminal stud for a solid electrical connection
• Restores proper clamping force when the original nut is stripped, corroded, or missing
• Helps address loose/burned terminal connections, heat discoloration, or intermittent power at the block
• Suitable for terminal block and similar 10-32 stud applications on compatible appliances

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Inspect the terminal block, studs, and wiring for heat damage; replace any damaged components
• Clean threads and start the nut by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten firmly without overtightening
• If the stud turns while tightening, hold it with an appropriate tool to protect the block

This door-activated switch detects when the oven door opens or closes and signals the appliance to control the interior light. Replacing a worn or failed switch restores dependable light operation and accurate door-status feedback.

• Senses oven door position and opens/closes the light circuit
• Controls the oven's interior light based on door position
• Provides door-status input to the control for normal operation
• Typical symptoms: light stays on, won't turn on, or flickers with door movement; door-ajar messages may appear

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the unit before servicing
• Access the switch from behind the front frame or control area, depending on model
• Move wires to the new switch one at a time to maintain correct positions; secure with existing hardware
• Restore power and verify light operation with door open/closed before reassembly

This replacement terminal block cover encloses the appliance's incoming power connections. It protects the wire terminals from accidental contact and debris, restoring a safe, finished connection area when the original cover is damaged or missing. What it does:

• Covers and shields the power terminal block where the supply wires connect
• Helps prevent accidental contact with live electrical connections
• Helps keep dust and debris out of the connection area
• Common signs: missing or broken cover, cover won't stay attached, visible heat damage or discoloration on the original cover

• One terminal block cover

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Access the terminal block per your model's service information
• Reuse existing mounting hardware; position and secure the new cover without pinching wires
• Inspect wires/terminals for heat damage or looseness and correct before reassembly

This support bracket secures an appliance cabinet component or mounting point to restore alignment and reduce movement. It replaces worn or broken supports so panels and internal parts stay properly positioned during normal operation. What it does

• Holds a cabinet panel, frame, or internal component in place to maintain proper alignment.
