Kems378shw05 Parts

The Fan Motor is an OEM part compatible with Whirlpool microwave ovens. It is a crucial component responsible for circulating air and ventilating the interior of the microwave during operation. The fan motor ensures proper air flow, which helps regulate temperature and prevent overheating.

Symptoms of a bad Fan Motor include:

• Inadequate ventilation or poor air circulation within the microwave
• Overheating issues or unusual odors during use
• Excessive noise or rattling sounds coming from the fan area
• Complete failure of the fan to operate or turn on

Causes of a bad fan motor can range from bearing failure due to wear and tear over time, to physical damage from impact or debris buildup. Electrical issues, such as voltage fluctuations or component failures, can also contribute to the malfunction of the fan motor.

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

This lower dishwasher spray arm circulates and directs pressurized water throughout the dishwasher basin to help clean dishes and cookware more evenly. Replacing a worn or damaged spray arm restores spray coverage and reduces spotting. What it does:

• Rotates and distributes water from the lower wash pump to reach bottom and mid-level racks
• Helps remove food soils and rinse away detergent residue for better cleaning results
• Worn, cracked, or clogged spray arms can cause poor cleaning, uneven results, or loud operation
• Compatible with standard lower spray arm mounts and spray patterns for many Whirlpool-style dishwashers

• One lower spray arm

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair
• Remove the lower rack to access and replace the spray arm; hand-tighten retaining nut or clip per OEM guidance
• Inspect for retained debris or mineral buildup in the spray holes and clean before installation
• Do not overtighten plastic fasteners; test a short cycle to ensure proper rotation and no leaks

Color: Stainless

Color: Citrine white. Size: 4.5 oz. can. Acrylic appliance aerosol can spray paint.

This transformer converts incoming mains power to the low-voltage supply your appliance's control board needs, restoring reliable control and display operation. It's a direct-replacement component for worn or failed transformers. What it does:

• Provides the low-voltage power feed used by the control board and user interface
• Stops intermittent or complete loss of display or control responsiveness
• Prevents erratic cycling or failure to start when the control supply is interrupted
• Helps eliminate buzzing or overheating caused by a failing transformer

• One replacement transformer (exact part number required for compatibility)

• Disconnect all power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Note or photograph original wiring and connector locations for correct reassembly
• Handle with care; avoid touching terminals while energized and secure all covers
• Replace with the exact OEM part number to ensure correct voltage and fit

This support is a replacement mounting bracket that secures internal components and restores proper alignment and stability. It helps reduce vibration and prevents loose or sagging parts for safer, quieter operation. What it does:

• Provides a rigid mounting point to hold internal assemblies in place
• Restores correct alignment when panels or components sit unevenly
• Reduces vibration or rattling caused by a broken or missing support
• Helps prevent additional wear on adjoining parts by keeping components stable

• One support mounting bracket

• Recommended for repair by someone comfortable with appliance disassembly
• Disconnect power (and water, if applicable) before starting any repair
• Keep track of mounting hardware and gaskets removed during replacement
• Inspect adjacent parts for wear when installing this support and replace as needed

This temperature sensor monitors oven cavity temperature and sends readings to the range control so your oven can regulate bake and broil cycles more accurately. Replaces a failing sensor to restore reliable temperature sensing. What it does:

• Detects oven cavity temperature and reports it to the control board
• Helps the range maintain set cooking temperatures during bake/broil cycles
• Common symptom: oven runs too hot, too cold, or cooks unevenly
• Can cause temperature-related error codes or prevent proper preheating

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Handle the sensor and its wiring harness carefully to avoid damage
• Install the sensor in the original location and orientation for proper readings

This oven temperature sensor monitors the oven cavity temperature and sends readings to the control board so your range can maintain accurate cooking temperatures. Replacing a faulty sensor restores proper temperature sensing for reliable bake and roast results. What it does:

• Measures internal oven temperature and reports it to the control board
• Helps maintain set cooking temperatures for even baking and roasting
• Common repair for ovens that run too hot, too cool, or display temperature errors
• Works with electronic controls to enable accurate temperature cycles

• One temperature sensor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Sensor typically mounts inside the oven cavity and connects to a plug or harness; confirm connector location before removing
• Handle sensor carefully to avoid bending or damaging the probe

Size: 2.8 fl.oz tube. 748 non-corosive sealant.

A small replacement button plug that fills a control-panel or console opening and restores a finished appearance. Keeps panels sealed and prevents debris from entering unused holes. What it does:

• Covers unused control holes or mounting openings on consoles and panels
• Helps block dust, moisture, and grime from entering appliance internals
• Restores a consistent, finished look to the control surface
• Useful when a damaged or missing plug leaves an exposed opening

• One button plug (black)

• Typically snaps into place from the front of the panel; no special tools usually required
• Ensure the cavity is clean and free of debris before installing for a secure fit
• If the plug sits near electrical components, disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Verify fit against the opening before final installation; slight trimming is not recommended unless specified

This oven temperature sensor detects internal oven temperature so the control can regulate heating for even cooking and accurate bake cycles. Replaces a failed or intermittent sensor to restore proper temperature control. What it does

• Senses oven cavity temperature and sends readings to the control board
• Can cause oven to run too hot, too cool, or display temperature-related errors when failing
• Often used when bake/broil cycles are inconsistent or the oven won't reach set temperatures
• Works as the temperature feedback component for electronic oven controls

• Disconnect power to the appliance before testing or replacing the sensor
• Handle the sensor probe and wiring gently; avoid pulling on wires or kinking the lead
• Verify replacement by visually inspecting connections and testing continuity with a multimeter

This convection fan motor assembly circulates air inside the microwave's convection oven cavity to promote even cooking and browning. It replaces a failed fan motor to restore proper airflow for convection cooking performance. What it does:

• Circulates heated air across the oven cavity for more even baking and roasting
• Aids in consistent temperature distribution during convection cycles
• Stops or reduces overheating by moving hot air away from internal components
• Common symptoms: no convection airflow, uneven cooking/browning, humming or grinding noise from fan area

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Handle sharp sheet-metal edges and the assembly carefully to avoid cuts
• Verify connector orientation and secure wiring; do not force connectors

Color: Citrine white. Size: 0.6 fl.oz. Bottle with brush.
