Mmv5208ws Parts

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 magnetron generates the microwave energy that cooks food inside a microwave oven, restoring heating performance when the original tube fails. Replaces a failed magnetron to return proper cooking and reheating. What it does:

• Converts electrical power into microwave energy used to heat food.
• Restores normal cooking when the oven no longer heats or has weak heating.
• Resolves loud humming, sparking, or intermittent heating caused by a failing tube.
• Works with the oven's high-voltage circuitry and waveguide to distribute energy into the cavity.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before service; high-voltage components can retain a dangerous charge.
• Discharge the high-voltage capacitor before touching the magnetron or associated wiring.
• Inspect and replace any damaged waveguide covers or mounting hardware for safe operation.

This inlet cover protects and conceals the appliance's inlet area, keeping wiring and connections secure and helping prevent debris from entering. It restores a clean, safe inlet opening and supports proper component alignment. What it does:

• Shields the inlet opening and nearby connections from dust and debris

• One inlet cover

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before beginning work
• Remove the appropriate access panel or trim to reach the inlet area
• Replace cover, securing with the original screws or clips; do not overtighten
• Inspect nearby gaskets, fittings and wiring while replacing the cover

This lamp cover is the replacement lens that protects and diffuses your oven's interior light, restoring even illumination while keeping the bulb shielded from heat and food residue. It helps maintain safe, usable oven lighting. What it does:

• Protects the oven light bulb from splashes, crumbs and direct contact.
• Diffuses the bulb for more even interior illumination.
• Replaces a cracked, cloudy, melted or missing lens that can cause dim or exposed lighting.
• Fits over the lamp housing to restore the oven's normal light appearance and function.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting and allow the oven to cool completely.
• Handle the cover carefully—wear gloves to protect from sharp edges or broken glass.
• Remove any retaining screws or clips, swap the old cover for the new one, then secure the retainer.
• After installation, restore power and replace the bulb if issues persist.

This refrigerator water filter cartridge replaces the installed filter to help restore clear, better-tasting water and improve ice quality. It's a direct-fit replacement designed for compatible Whirlpool refrigeration systems. What it does:

• Filters water to reduce common impurities that can affect taste and clarity
• Helps improve the quality of ice produced by the refrigerator
• Can resolve symptoms like cloudy water, off-taste, or reduced water flow from the dispenser
• Restores proper filtration performance when the original filter is expired or clogged

• Follow the refrigerator manufacturer's instructions for removal and installation.
• Run and discard the recommended amount of water after installation to flush the system before use.
• Turn off the water supply and disconnect power if required by your model before servicing.
• Inspect the new filter for damage; do not use a damaged filter.

This molded wire support clip secures wiring and small harnesses to the appliance cabinet or components to prevent rubbing, pinching, or contact with moving/heat-producing parts. It helps reduce chafing and electrical wear for safer, more reliable operation. What it does:

• Holds wiring harnesses and individual wires in place to prevent contact with sharp edges, motors, or heating elements
• Minimizes wire movement and vibration that can lead to chafing or broken conductors
• Helps maintain proper routing for consistent connections and component performance
• Commonly used where a small push-fit retainer is needed to secure low-voltage or signal wires

• One wire support clip as shown

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Push-fit installation: align clip over wire/harness and press into the mating hole or slot until it snaps in place; clip may require slight flexing
• Inspect surrounding wiring and routing for damage; replace any frayed or exposed wires before reassembly
• If the mounting hole or panel is damaged, use the correct replacement panel or a suitable repair to ensure a secure fit

This piston assembly restores the moving piston used in the appliance's fluid/valve system to help recover proper dispensing and motion. It replaces a worn or damaged piston so the affected function can operate as intended. What it does:

• Replaces the piston that moves inside a valve or dispenser to control fluid or airflow
• Restores proper actuation and sealing that can prevent drips or improper dispensing
• Commonly installed when symptoms include poor dispensing, leaks near the valve area, sticking motion, or unusual noises during operation
• Works as a direct-fit replacement where this OEM piston assembly is specified

• One piston assembly as shown

• Disconnect power (and water supply or gas, if applicable) before starting any repair
• Follow the appliance service manual and use appropriate tools; keep small fasteners and seals organized
• Inspect sealing surfaces and O-rings; replace damaged seals to ensure a leak-free install
• Test the appliance after installation to confirm correct operation

This thermistor is a refrigerator temperature sensor that monitors internal air temperature so the control board can regulate cooling. Replaces a failed sensor to help restore accurate temperature readings and more consistent cooling. What it does:

• Senses internal refrigerator temperature and sends a variable resistance signal to the control board
• Helps the control system cycle the compressor and fans correctly for stable temperatures
• Commonly replaced when refrigerator runs too cold, too warm, or has irregular cooling cycles
• Can address temperature-error codes or defrost control issues when the sensor is faulty

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the sensor
• Handle the sensor and wiring harness carefully to avoid damage to the probe or connectors
• Install in the original sensor mounting location and secure wiring away from moving parts

This base is the appliance's lower cabinet section that supports internal components and helps stabilize the unit. It restores a solid foundation so the appliance sits level and protects internal parts from floor contact and debris. What it does:

• Provides structural support for the appliance's internal assemblies and controls
• Helps stabilize the unit and reduce excessive vibration or rocking
• Protects wiring, motors and other components from contact with the floor
• A damaged or cracked base can cause noisy operation, misalignment, or uneven sitting
