The Screw is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges. This screw is used to secure various components of the range, ensuring that parts such as panels, brackets, or burners remain firmly in place during operation. It is designed to withstand the high-heat environment of a range, providing long-lasting durability.

Symptoms of a bad or missing Screw include:

• Loose or misaligned range components
• Rattling or unusual noises during operation
• Difficulty maintaining the range's structural stability

Causes of a failing or missing screw can include normal wear over time, accidental loss during maintenance or repairs, or damage from overtightening. Replacing faulty screws ensures the appliance remains safe and functional.

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

If your range has a strong burning smell or won't power on, the terminal block may be heat-damaged. This insulated connector restores safe power flow.

Bottle with brush. Color: Black. Size: 0.6 fl.oz.

Fix a microwave that runs but won't heat food with this magnetron replacement. Moderately difficult repair requiring capacitor discharge safety steps.

Oven light won't turn on? This light transformer steps down voltage to power your oven cavity lights. Moderate DIY repair restores illumination.

A factory screw with 8-32 machine threads used to secure brackets, panels, and internal components where specified. Restores a solid, factory fit when the original fastener is missing, stripped, or corroded. What it does:

• Provides the specified 8-32 machine-thread fastening for OEM components
• Helps prevent looseness, vibration, or rattling from a missing/damaged screw
• Replaces screws with worn heads or stripped threads to enable proper tightening
• Supports correct reassembly during part replacement or service

• 1 screw

• Disconnect power; shut off water and/or gas before servicing
• Match the new screw to the original for thread and length before installing
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten until snug
• Do not overtighten into plastic or thin metal; replace damaged inserts/clips if found

• Thread size: 8-32 (machine)

Microwave not heating? This high voltage capacitor works with the magnetron and diode to generate heat. Moderate DIY repair with proper safety precautions.

Screw for control panel vent.

Color: Black. Size: 12 oz. Acrylic appliance aerosol can spray paint.

The Thermal Fuse is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool ovens. As an important safety device, it is located near heat-producing elements inside the oven cavity. 

Causes of a bad thermal fuse include overheating of elements or surrounding components over time, which can eventually blow the fuse. 

Symptoms of a faulty thermal fuse include:

• The oven failing to heat or operate heating cycles fully
• Heating elements abruptly shutting off during baking  
• An unusual burning smell emanating from the oven

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

Replacement hex nut for dryer terminal blocks and electrical connections. Secures terminal components. Needed when original is stripped, missing, or damaged.

This fixed thermostat protects the appliance by opening the circuit when excessive heat is detected. Replacing a failed or weak thermostat restores reliable over-temperature protection and helps prevent heat-related shutdowns.

• Opens the circuit if the protected area overheats to help prevent damage to components
• Helps with symptoms like unexpected shutdowns during operation or no power after overheating
• Can be the cause when the unit only runs again after cooling down
• Helps maintain safe operating temperatures around heat-sensitive parts

• Disconnect power before servicing; some appliances contain high-voltage components
• Access location varies by model; note wire positions before removal and transfer one lead at a time
• Reuse existing mounting hardware; ensure firm terminal connections and correct orientation
• After replacement, confirm proper airflow/venting and normal operation

This block-style fuse holder secures and connects the appliance fuse to the wiring harness, restoring a safe electrical connection and thermal protection. Use it when the original fuse block is cracked, corroded, or no longer holding the fuse securely. What it does:

• Holds and connects the appliance fuse to the wiring harness so the thermal/overload fuse can function.
• Restores reliable electrical contact when the original block is cracked, melted, or corroded.
• Addresses symptoms such as intermittent power, no heat, or appliance not starting when caused by a bad fuse connection.
• Works with the existing fuse and wiring—does not replace the fuse itself.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing this part.
• Replace any damaged wiring, connectors, or insulation found during replacement; do not cut corners or bypass thermal safety devices.

This lens-lamp assembly replaces a damaged or missing interior light lens and lamp, restoring clear, protected illumination inside the appliance. It provides a covered light source that reduces glare and shields the bulb from food and debris. What it does:

• Covers and protects the appliance interior light bulb from spills, splashes, and impact
• Diffuses light for more even interior illumination
• Restores proper visibility when the original lens is cracked, cloudy, or missing
• Helps prevent direct exposure to the bulb, improving safety during use

• One lens-lamp assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Allow the bulb to cool before handling; wear gloves to protect hands and avoid fingerprints on bulb
• Test the light function after installation to ensure proper fit and operation

This is a high-voltage transformer that steps up electrical power to the level needed to drive the magnetron in a microwave oven. It converts standard household voltage to the high voltage required for microwave energy generation. Replace this part if the microwave runs but does not heat food, makes unusual humming or buzzing sounds, or trips the circuit breaker during operation.

Color: Black.
