This Whirlpool Microwave Interlock Switch is an OEM part compatible with certain Whirlpool microwave models. As a crucial safety component, this interlock switch ensures the microwave only operates when the door is securely closed, preventing accidental exposure to microwave radiation. 

Interlock switches in microwaves can fail due to repeated use, mechanical wear, or misalignment. A malfunctioning interlock switch can lead to the microwave refusing to start, operating with the door open, or intermittent operation, all of which pose significant safety concerns.

Symptoms of a defective microwave interlock switch include:

• The microwave does not start or heats intermittently.
• The microwave starts operating when the door is open.
• Unusual noises when closing or opening the microwave door.
• The microwave stops suddenly during operation.
• The display or controls are unresponsive despite the door being closed.

This genuine Whirlpool OEM replacement part is compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air, and Kenmore models.
 

This microwave rack restores the elevated cooking surface your oven was designed for. Replace a missing, bent, or flaking rack to safely support multi-level reheating and make full use of your microwave's capacity.

• Provides a stable, elevated surface for two-level or batch cooking when your model supports it
• Seats on the factory interior support guides for correct clearance and placement
• Replaces a rack that is missing, warped, or has damaged coating that may cause sparking
• Helps restore even results when using multi-level cooking

• Allow the oven to cool; open the door and place the rack on the designated interior support guides
• Ensure the rack sits level and does not touch the cavity walls before starting a cycle
• Use only as directed in your model's Use & Care Guide; remove the rack when not needed

The Interlock Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool microwaves. As a safety mechanism, it prevents inadvertent microwave radiation by cutting power without the door closed securely. 

Causes of a bad interlock switch involve insulation breakage from everyday wear, as well as impacts disturbing contact alignment. Over time and use, sensitivity diminishes.

Symptoms include:

• Inability to start cooking cycles without manually securing the door  
• Fault codes or error messages relating to door detection issues
• Microwave leakage if cycles can be triggered while the door is open

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with some Maytag, KitchenAid, and Kenmore models.

The Nut is an OEM part for Whirlpool microwaves. It helps secure various parts within the microwave, ensuring proper assembly and function. It is used to fasten items, keeping them securely in place during use.

A bad microwave nut can occur due to wear and tear over time or accidental damage. If the nut becomes loose, stripped, or misplaced, it can lead to instability and compromise affected parts.

Symptoms of a bad microwave nut include:

• Loose or wobbly parts.
• Difficulty in operating the microwave.
• Unusual noises or vibrations during use.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This support secures and stabilizes a mating component inside your appliance, helping restore proper alignment and fit. Replace a damaged or missing support to stop wobble, sagging, or misalignment.

• Provides structural backing to keep the attached part level and in place
• Helps eliminate rattling, shifting, or uneven gaps
• Replace if cracked, deformed, or missing
• Symptoms can include loose or sagging parts, poor alignment, or difficulty reinstalling shelves/panels

• Disconnect power (and shut off water, if applicable) before service
• Remove the affected shelf/drawer/panel to access the support
• Transfer and reuse any model-specific fasteners or clips
• Seat the new support fully and check alignment before reassembly

The Turntable Ring is an OEM part for Whirlpool microwaves. As the foundation for the glass turntable, this plastic ring rotates during the microwave cooking cycle to allow even heating. It is designed with precise dimensions and tolerances to fit properly on the carousel and turn smoothly without issue.

Causes of a bad turntable ring can include cracks or breaks from impact or wear over time. The ridges that support the turntable glass may become worn or damaged, preventing proper rotation.

Symptoms of a bad turntable ring include:

• Uneven or incomplete cooking due to lack of rotation
• Grinding or scraping noises during use
• Turntable that does not turn smoothly
• Cracks or breaks in the plastic ring structure

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

This magnetron capacitor is the microwave high-voltage capacitor that helps supply the magnetron with the pulse of energy needed to produce heat. Replacing a failing capacitor restores normal heating performance and reduces arcing or loud humming. What it does

• Stores and releases the high-voltage pulse required by the magnetron so the microwave can generate heat.
• Prevents unstable magnetron operation that can cause weak or no heating.
• Common symptoms of a failing capacitor: oven runs but doesn't heat, intermittent heating, loud buzzing/humming, or visible arcing inside the cavity.
• A failed capacitor can also cause blown internal fuses or tripped circuits.

• One capacitor.

• Disconnect power and verify the appliance is completely de-energized before servicing.
• Capacitors can hold dangerous charge; discharge the capacitor safely with an insulated tool.
• Use the exact replacement part and follow the appliance service manual for routing and connections.

Note: This coupler is compatible with the glass tray that has the 3 triangles that engage the coupler. In some cases, the factory used a tray that has 3 half-circles. For that coupler, use part# W10435116.

The support is an OEM part for Whirlpool microwaves. This motor coupler works to connect the microwave's motor to the turntable shaft, transferring power from the motor to turn the turntable.

Causes of a bad motor coupler can include wear and tear over time, excessive use of the microwave leading to deterioration of parts, or damage due to impact or mishandling.

Symptoms of a bad motor coupler include:

• The turntable not spinning or rotating unevenly
• Grinding or clicking noises coming from the microwave interior
• The turntable shaft being loose or out of alignment

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

This microwave magnetron is the high-voltage tube that generates the microwave energy to heat food. When it fails, the oven may run but not heat or heat very slowly. Replacing it restores normal cooking performance. What it does:

• Produces the microwave energy that heats food in the oven cavity
• A failed unit can cause the microwave to run but not heat
• Can create an unusual loud humming or buzzing during operation

• Includes 1 magnetron

• Unplug the microwave and discharge the high-voltage capacitor before servicing
• Handle by the mounting surfaces; avoid touching or damaging the antenna and ceramic insulators
• Reconnect high-voltage leads exactly as routed and reassemble cooling airflow parts; test with a cup of water to confirm heat

The Mounting Nut Assembly is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool microwaves. It securely fastens the microwave to its mounting bracket, ensuring stability and safety during operation. It provides a secure and reliable connection, preventing the microwave from shifting or falling during use.

A bad mounting nut can occur due to various reasons, such as wear and tear, improper installation, or accidental damage. If you notice symptoms such as the microwave becoming loose or wobbly, or if the mounting nut is missing or damaged, it may be time to replace it.

Symptoms of a bad microwave installation mounting nut include:

• Microwave becoming loose or wobbly
• Missing or damaged mounting nut

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