Wvw9400sw03 Parts

The Grease Filter is an OEM part for Whirlpool range hoods. This part traps grease particles from the air as it circulates through the range hood, preventing grease buildup on the blower and other internal components, thus maintaining the efficiency and longevity of the range hood.

Causes of a bad grease filter can include clogging from excessive grease accumulation, physical damage from improper cleaning or handling, and general wear and tear over time.

Symptoms of a bad grease filter include:

• Reduced air flow from the range hood
• Visible grease buildup on or around the filter
• Unusual odors persisting in the kitchen
• Filter appearing worn or damaged

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

This hood damper mounts at the exhaust outlet to let cooking air exit while blocking backdrafts when the fan is off. Replacing a worn damper restores proper airflow and helps eliminate rattling or sticking during vent operation.

• Controls one-way airflow from the hood into the duct; seals when the fan is off
• Helps block outside air and moisture from entering through the vent
• Wear or damage can cause poor venting, rattling noises, or a stuck exterior flap
• Restores vent performance after the original damper is bent, warped, or missing

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access the exhaust outlet and remove the old damper; note airflow orientation
• Install so the flap swings freely and seats closed; avoid overtightening fasteners
• Run the fan to verify smooth damper movement and proper airflow

Replacement transformer that provides low-voltage power to the appliance control system, restoring reliable power to the control board and display. Use when the appliance is unresponsive or shows blank/noisy controls due to a failed transformer. What it does:

• Supplies the low-voltage power required by the control board and user interface.
• Enables control panel functions, displays, and relays that rely on the transformer.
• Common symptom: blank display or no response from touch/pressed controls.
• Also may cause intermittent operation or failure of electrically-driven features when faulty.

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before starting any work.
• Replace with the exact part number; match to the appliance wiring and mounting.
• Observe proper wiring, polarity, and secure connections; do not work on wet surfaces.

The Light is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool range hoods. It illuminates the cooktop below, aiding visibility during food preparation. A properly functioning light also improves the overall appearance of the range hood.

Causes of a bad light can include normal wear over time, and failure of internal filaments or ballasts due to continuous use. Excessive heat exposure may also degrade lighting components more rapidly. 

Symptoms of a bad light include:

• Dim or unlit illumination from the hood 
• Flickering or inconsistent operation
• Broken or missing lens cover/housing

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

The Chimney is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool ventilation hoods used above cooktop ranges. It vents fumes, steam, and smoke from the cooking surface up and out of the kitchen area.  

Symptoms of a bad chimney include grease caking and blocking proper airflow. Physical damage like dents could also disrupt venting performance.

Causes of a bad chimney include:

• Reduced or inefficient venting of fumes from cooking  
• Greasy film forming on range backsplash/walls near the hood
• Physical blockages restricting maximum airflow
• Vent motor straining from obstruction resistance

It keeps indoor air fresh for brands including KitchenAid, Jenn-Air and select Broan-Noren product lines.

The Chimney Duct Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool range vent hoods. It is designed to provide a connection between the vent hood and the exterior ventilation system for airflow and removal of cooking odors and smoke.

A bad chimney duct assembly can occur due to regular use, wear and tear, or damage caused by external factors. If you notice poor ventilation, lingering odors, or smoke not being adequately expelled from your kitchen, it may indicate a problem with the chimney duct assembly.

Symptoms of a bad chimney duct assembly include:

• Insufficient airflow or poor ventilation
• Lingering cooking odors or smoke in the kitchen
• Excessive grease buildup in the vent hood or duct system

Replace your faulty chimney duct assembly with this genuine OEM part to restore your appliance. 

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

This fan motor is the rotating blower assembly that moves air through the appliance to support cooling, ventilation and proper operation. Replacing a worn motor restores airflow and helps maintain temperature control and performance. What it does:

• Drives the blower wheel to circulate air through the appliance cabinet and vents
• Restores airflow when the motor has failed or stalled
• Stops or reduces abnormal noise when the original motor bearings are worn
• Helps prevent overheating by maintaining proper ventilation

• Disconnect power before attempting any service to avoid shock or injury
• Handle the motor and blower wheel carefully to avoid damaging blades or connectors
• Verify wiring connections and mounting orientation match the original part before powering on

This run capacitor helps the appliance's motor start and run smoothly by providing a phase-shifted electrical boost. Replacing a worn capacitor restores reliable motor operation and can stop start-up problems and irregular running. What it does:

• Provides the motor with the extra electrical charge needed for starting and stable operation
• Commonly linked to symptoms like hard-starting, a loud humming motor, or motors that won't start
• Stabilizes motor speed and reduces stress on the motor and start components
• Works as a direct replacement for the original capacitor specified for the motor circuit

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock hazard
• Discharge the capacitor before touching terminals; capacitors can hold a charge after power is removed
• Use insulated tools and avoid bridging terminals during handling

This blower fan is the rotating assembly that moves air through the dryer to help circulate heat and remove moisture for faster, more even drying. It replaces a worn or damaged blower to restore airflow and drying performance. What it does:

• Spins to pull hot air through the drum and vent for proper drying and moisture removal
• Helps maintain consistent temperature and prevents overheating from restricted airflow
• Commonly linked to weak airflow, longer dry times, or unusual blower noise
• Works with the dryer's motor and housing to direct exhaust air out of the cabinet

• One blower fan

• Disconnect power (and gas supply if applicable) before servicing to prevent shock or injury
• Inspect the housing, motor, and vent path for obstructions or damage while replacing the blower
• Some models require removing the dryer front or cabinet; follow the OEM service manual for step-by-step guidance
• If you notice excessive vibration or noise after install, verify correct seating and any fasteners are tightened

This upper chimney panel covers the vent stack and completes the look of a compatible range hood while helping guide exhaust into the duct. It restores a finished appearance and protects internal ductwork from dust and debris. What it does

• Covers and conceals the hood's ducting for a finished installation and improved aesthetics
• Guides exhaust upward into the duct while protecting internal components from buildup
• Replaces bent, dented, scratched, or missing chimney panels that affect appearance
• Helps maintain proper clearance around the vent opening when installed correctly

• Disconnect power to the range hood before starting work to avoid electrical hazard
• Keep original mounting screws and brackets; replace damaged fasteners with OEM equivalents
• Minor adjustments may be needed to match height and alignment with the lower hood section
