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.

This factory screw secures appliance components to their mounting points. Replace missing, worn, or stripped hardware to restore a tight fit, proper alignment, and quieter operation across the affected assembly.

• Fastens panels, brackets, covers, or internal parts to the chassis or frame
• Helps maintain alignment and support, reducing rattle, vibration, or looseness
• Replaces missing or damaged screws that have backed out, broken, or stripped
• Restores secure mounting after service when original hardware is lost

• Disconnect power; shut off water or gas supplies before servicing
• Use the correct driver; start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Match length and thread to the original location; do not substitute with longer hardware
• Tighten snugly; do not overtighten into plastic or thin metal

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.
 

A shoulder screw that secures appliance components and provides a precise pivot or spacer point. Replaces a missing or worn screw to restore alignment, reduce rattling, and keep panels and assemblies securely in place. What it does:

• Provides a fixed-diameter shoulder for pivots, spacers, or mounting points in assemblies.
• Holds panels and moving components at the correct distance to prevent binding or friction.
• A missing or worn shoulder screw can cause misalignment, rattling, or loose parts during operation.
• Used where a smooth-bearing surface and controlled clearance are required between parts.

• Disconnect power to the appliance (unplug or shut off breaker) before servicing.
• Handle small fasteners carefully to avoid dropping into assemblies; magnetic pickup tools can help.
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly but avoid overtightening.

This primary door interlock switch lets the microwave know the door is fully closed so cooking can start. Replacing a worn or sticking switch restores reliable start/stop response and helps prevent intermittent operation tied to door-latch signaling. What it does

• Confirms the door is closed to allow the control to power the cook circuit
• Common symptoms of a failed switch: won't start, stops when the door is jostled, or only runs when pressing on the door
• Installs on the latch/door switch bracket alongside secondary/monitor switches
• Helps correct inconsistent or no response when pressing Start

• One primary door interlock switch

• Disconnect power at the breaker; microwaves contain high-voltage components that can retain a dangerous charge
• Access the latch/switch bracket, then release the switch from its clip or screws
• Move wires to the same terminals on the new switch; match orientation/actuator position
• After reassembly, verify the unit does not run with the door open and starts consistently with the door closed

This 15 amp, 250 volt replacement fuse protects your appliance's electrical circuits by interrupting power when a fault or overload occurs. It restores safe operation once the underlying issue is fixed and the fuse is replaced. What it does:

• Acts as an overcurrent protection device for circuits rated up to 15 A and 250 V
• Prevents damage to wiring and components by opening the circuit during an overload or short
• Common symptom: appliance has no power or specific functions stop working after a sudden failure
• Replacing a blown fuse can resolve intermittent power loss or complete power failure tied to a single blown element

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the fuse
• Replace only with a fuse of the same amperage and voltage rating to maintain safety and proper protection
• Use insulated tools and avoid touching live terminals; internal access may require disassembly, follow OEM service instructions
• If fuses blow repeatedly, stop using the appliance.
