This motor cover protects and secures the appliance motor assembly, keeping wiring and components shielded from debris and wear. It restores the motor's protective housing for safer, quieter operation. What it does:

• Shields the motor and wiring from lint, dust, and foreign objects
• Helps maintain proper airflow and component alignment around the motor
• Replaces cracked, broken, or missing housings that leave the motor exposed
• Can reduce rattle or rubbing caused by a damaged motor cover

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work
• Remove access panels or panels obstructing the motor to reach the mounting location
• Align the cover over the motor and secure with the original fasteners
• Inspect wiring and nearby components while installing; ensure no wires are pinched or contacting moving parts

This evaporator fan moves cold air across the evaporator and through the refrigerator cabinet to keep temperatures even and food properly chilled. Replacing a failing fan restores airflow and helps the cooling system work efficiently. What it does:

• Circulates cold air from the evaporator to maintain even temperatures in the fresh-food and freezer compartments
• Promotes proper defrosting by moving air over the evaporator coils
• Reduces frost buildup and helps the compressor run less frequently when working correctly
• Common symptoms of a bad fan: loud or unusual noise from the fridge, warm compartments, or uneven cooling

• One evaporator fan assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove interior panels or shelving as needed to access the evaporator fan; follow OEM instructions for disassembly
• Handle evaporator coil area and sheet metal with care—sharp edges can cause injury
• After installation, restore power and check for improved cooling and absence of abnormal noise

Whirlpool manufacturers this electronic control board. This is the sole means of controlling and adjusting the oven. Users can set the temperature, change the cooking mode, check the time, and more via the display on this part. If it fails, the oven will be inoperable until it is replaced. While the electronic control board is designed to be durable and has some protection against heat and spills, it can still be damaged by hard impacts, significant spills and prolonged exposure to moisture, as well as normal wear and tear through use. Replacing the control board will require cutting the power to the oven, then removing the surround from over the old board. Exercise care when removing the plugs from the old board and installing them in the new one.This is a genuine OEM part and is sold individually. This electronic control board is compatible with the following kitchen appliance brands: Whirlpool and KitchenAid.

This thermostat temperature limiter helps regulate oven temperature and prevents overheating by signaling the control when set limits are reached. It replaces a faulty limiter to restore proper temperature control and safer operation. What it does

• Acts as a temperature-sensitive switch that opens or closes at a set temperature to limit heat.
• Prevents the oven from exceeding safe temperatures by cutting power to the heating circuit when triggered.
• Commonly used when the oven won't reach or maintain set temperatures, or when it overheats and shuts down.
• Works as a safety/limit device in the appliance's temperature control system.

• One thermostat temperature limiter

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing.
• Handle terminals carefully and secure wiring to original connections; avoid bending or stressing the sensor.

This replacement mounting screw secures panels and components on compatible Whirlpool appliances, helping restore proper fit and reduce movement or noise. Use it when a lost or damaged screw prevents parts from staying in place. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, trim pieces or small assemblies
• Helps stop rattling, loose parts, or misaligned panels
• Restores secure attachment after hardware is lost or stripped
• Matches common OEM thread and head style for a correct fit when specified by model

• One replacement screw

• Turn off and unplug the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Use the correct driver bit to avoid stripping the screw head
• Do not overtighten; snug until parts are secure to prevent damage
• If the original screw is corroded or stripped, replace it with this part for reliable fastening

This fuse holder secures and connects a replaceable inline fuse to the appliance's electrical circuit, restoring overcurrent protection and helping prevent damage from short circuits or power surges. What it does:

• Holds and connects a replaceable fuse in the appliance's electrical circuit
• Completes the fuse's electrical connection so current flows through the protective element
• Replaces a cracked, burnt, or loose holder that causes intermittent power or blown fuses
• Helps restore proper overcurrent protection when the fuse itself is intact

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing electrical parts.
• Inspect nearby wiring and connectors; replace any damaged components to ensure a secure connection.

This convection fan blade replaces a damaged or worn blade to restore proper air circulation for more even baking and roasting in convection ovens. It mounts to the oven's convection motor and helps maintain consistent cooking temperatures. What it does:

• Circulates hot air across the oven cavity for even browning and faster cook times
• Replaces cracked, warped or missing blades that cause vibration or scraping noises
• Reduces hot/cold spots that lead to unevenly cooked food
• Helps the convection system maintain stable airflow for consistent results

• Disconnect power to the appliance and allow the oven to cool completely before beginning.
• Remove oven back panel or interior cover per your model's service instructions to access the fan assembly.
• Handle the blade carefully—edges may be sharp; secure blade to motor hub using the original fastener and correct orientation.
• If the fan motor or mounting hardware is damaged, inspect and replace those components as needed.

This heat shield installs inside the oven cavity to deflect intense heat away from nearby components. Replacing a warped or missing shield helps protect the control area and supports proper heat distribution during broiling.

• Deflects radiant heat from the upper heating zone to protect wiring, insulation, and the control assembly
• Helps maintain safe temperatures around the console and door trim
• Supports consistent heat distribution in the oven cavity
• Helps with: visible warping or missing shield, scorching/discoloration above the door, excessive heat at the console, burning odors during broil

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the appliance to cool completely
• Remove oven racks and access the shield per your model's design
• Match the original orientation and secure with the existing mounting hardware
• Ensure the shield is firmly seated and clear of heating elements before restoring power

A hex locknut used to secure rotating shafts and threaded fasteners on compatible appliances. Small but critical, it keeps components held firmly in place to prevent loosening during normal operation. What it does:

• Secures shafts, pulleys, or control components to prevent axial movement
• Stops parts from working loose due to vibration or regular use
• Can resolve symptoms like noisy operation, wobbling parts, or loose knobs/assemblies
• Provides a reliable threaded connection when paired with the correct mating fastener

• One hex locknut (quantity: 1)

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, unplug appliance before starting any repair
• Use the correct wrench or socket size and tighten until snug—avoid overtightening
• If access requires disassembly, keep track of removed parts.
