The Door Latch Bracket is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool built-in microwaves. It is a rigid metal component that securely holds the door latch mechanism in proper position when closed. This is the microwave door latch bracket behind the door release button.

Causes of a bad door latch bracket typically involve fatigue from years of repeated use. Impacts, warping from excessive heat exposure, or stresses from heavy pan loads may weaken or deform connecting surfaces over time as well.

Symptoms of a compromised bracket include:

• Misalignment causing difficulty latching or fully closing the door
• Cracking or looseness allowing excessive play of latch components  
• Recurring problems with the door sealing tightly or staying shut securely
• Gaps that allow microwaves to escape from the cooking cavity

This OEM Whirlpool replacement part is also compatible with KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and some Kenmore built-in microwave models.

The Diode is an OEM part for Whirlpool microwaves. It plays a crucial role in the microwave's operation by allowing electrical current to flow in one direction, essential for converting AC power to DC power, which is necessary for the microwave's components to function correctly.

Over time, the diode can fail due to electrical surges, general wear and tear, or exposure to high heat. A bad diode can disrupt the microwave's ability to heat food properly, leading to inefficient performance or complete appliance failure.

Symptoms of a bad diode include:

• Microwave not heating
• Sparking or unusual noises during operation
• Burning smell from the microwave
•  Microwave shutting down shortly after starting

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

15 Amp, 125/250 Volt. Package of 2. Switches have 3/16 inch terminals.

This is a Whirlpool microwave magnetron. The microwave magnetron is one of the main components that control the heating function in the appliance. If a microwave has suddenly stopped heating but is still turning on normally, the problem could be the magnetron. Use a voltage tester to confirm whether this part is causing the problem. This component is made for installation in a microwave and oven combo where the microwave doubles as a vent hood. To replace this part, begin by unplugging the appliance and removing it from above the oven. Two people will be needed for this repair. This part requires exposure to highly sensitive electrical parts that could cause severe injury.This is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer. This part is compatible with Whirlpool, Magic Chef, Amana, and Maytag appliances.

This electrical safety fuse opens the circuit when a short or overcurrent occurs. Replacing a blown fuse can help restore power after the root cause is corrected, protecting controls and wiring from further damage.

• Protects the appliance by interrupting power during overcurrent or short-circuit events
• When open/blown, the appliance may be completely unresponsive
• Helps prevent damage to control boards and wiring during faults
• Often fails after a component shorts or a power surge occurs

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Use a multimeter to test the fuse for continuity; replace only if open
• Install a fuse with the exact same rating and form factor as the original
• If the new fuse blows again, stop and diagnose the underlying fault; consider service for high-voltage systems

The Screw is an OEM part for Whirlpool microwaves. It is responsible for securing various parts of the microwave together. This screw ensures a tight and secure fit for parts and helps maintain the structural integrity of the microwave, preventing any loose or rattling parts.

A bad microwave screw can occur due to wear and tear, accidental damage, or misplacement during maintenance or repairs. If you notice symptoms such as loose or wobbly components, difficulty in opening or closing the microwave door, or abnormal noises while the microwave is in use, it may be time to replace this part.

Symptoms of a bad microwave screw include:

• Loose or wobbly components
• Difficulty in opening or closing the microwave door
• Abnormal noises during operation

Restore your Whirlpool microwave by replacing the faulty or missing microwave screw with this genuine OEM part.

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

This microwave turntable motor mounts beneath the oven floor and spins the glass tray to help food heat evenly. Replacing a worn motor restores smooth, reliable rotation when the tray stalls, jerks, or makes unusual noises.

• Drives the turntable via the center coupler beneath the cavity floor
• Promotes even cooking by keeping the tray rotating during operation
• Common failure symptoms: tray not turning, intermittent/jerky movement, humming or grinding noise from below
• Helps correct stalling under normal load when the original motor is weak or seized

• Disconnect power at the breaker; microwaves contain high-voltage components that can retain a dangerous charge
• Typically accessed from the bottom of the microwave; remove the bottom cover to reach the motor
• Move wire connectors to the new motor in the same orientation and secure with original hardware
• Ensure the coupler and roller ring are properly seated; test rotation with a cup of water on the tray

This mounting bracket secures the door lock/latch assembly to the washer's front panel, keeping the latch properly aligned so the door locks and unlocks reliably during cycles. Replacing a damaged bracket helps restore safe, consistent door operation.

• Holds the door latch assembly firmly in place
• Helps prevent door lock errors and incomplete cycles caused by misalignment
• Common symptoms include door not locking, cycle not starting, or "Door Locked" error codes
• Maintains correct latch position to reduce vibration-related issues

• Unplug the appliance before servicing
• Access is typically from the front; remove the door gasket clamp to reach the latch area
• Support the latch assembly while swapping the bracket to avoid straining wiring
• Test door operation and run a short cycle check after reassembly

High-voltage capacitor for microwave ovens that stores and releases the electrical charge needed to drive the magnetron, restoring heating when the original capacitor has failed and preventing further electrical stress. What it does:

• Stores high-voltage electrical energy used by the magnetron to produce microwave energy.
• Works with the high-voltage transformer and diode; a failed capacitor can cause no-heat or reduced-heat conditions.
• Common, widely accepted symptoms: microwave not heating, loud humming, arcing/sparking, or blown fuse.
• Replacing a defective capacitor can stop repetitive electrical faults and protect other high-voltage components.

• Always unplug the appliance before beginning service and discharge the capacitor with an appropriate resistor or discharge tool.
• Handle and test the component using insulated tools; capacitors can retain dangerous charge even when unplugged.
• Verify correct part orientation and secure connections; use only the exact replacement specified by the manufacturer.

This replacement power cord restores the electrical connection to your appliance so it powers reliably. Designed as a direct-fit cord assembly to replace a damaged or worn lead and help restore normal operation. What it does:

• Provides the main AC connection between the appliance and your household outlet
• Replaces frayed, cut, or broken cords that can cause loss of power or intermittent operation
• Helps eliminate sparking or exposed wiring hazards from a damaged cord
• Restores safe, stable power delivery when the cord is the root cause of power issues

• Disconnect power at the breaker and unplug the appliance before starting any work
• Route and secure the cord per the appliance wiring diagram; avoid pinching or sharp bends
• Do not attempt to splice or modify the cord

Size: 4 x 8mm.
