Wmh53521hz Parts

The Control Board is an OEM component for Whirlpool microwaves. As the centralized processor, it monitors and directs all microwave functions through built-in circuitry and communication protocols. 

The control board ensures cook times, power levels, and features operate accurately based on user settings. Its controls automatically calibrate the magnetron and other components to deliver consistent heating results.

Causes of a bad control board can include moisture damage, failed solder joints, or cracks in the circuit pathways over repeated heating cycles.

Symptoms of a bad control board include:

• Lights or displays cease to function properly
• Preset buttons or numeric pad malfunctions 
• Magnetron fails to engage or overheats
• Door locks inoperable or inconsistent

With this genuine Whirlpool replacement part, users can restore optimized performance. Compatible with microwaves from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, and select Kenmore models.
