The Whirlpool element mounting screw is an OEM replacement part responsible for securely fastening the heating element to the designated location inside the oven. This part ensures that the heating element remains firmly attached to the appliance's structure. The element mounting screw is crafted from durable materials to withstand high temperatures to provide a reliable and stable connection between the heating element and the oven.

This part fixes the following symptoms:

• Loose or wobbly heating element
• Uneven heating inside the oven
• Excessive vibrations or rattling noises during operation

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

This fuse holder secures and connects a replaceable inline fuse to the appliance's electrical circuit, restoring overcurrent protection and helping prevent damage from short circuits or power surges. What it does:

• Holds and connects a replaceable fuse in the appliance's electrical circuit
• Completes the fuse's electrical connection so current flows through the protective element
• Replaces a cracked, burnt, or loose holder that causes intermittent power or blown fuses
• Helps restore proper overcurrent protection when the fuse itself is intact

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing electrical parts.
• Inspect nearby wiring and connectors; replace any damaged components to ensure a secure connection.

This factory replacement screw secures panels, brackets, and covers in your appliance. Replacing missing or stripped hardware restores a solid fit, reduces vibration and rattles, and keeps components properly aligned during everyday use. What it does:

• Fastens panels, trim, brackets, and internal components to the cabinet or chassis
• Helps maintain alignment and reduce vibration or rattling noises
• Replaces missing, rusted, or stripped screws discovered during service
• Matches the OEM spec for locations where this part is called out on your model's diagram

• Disconnect power (and gas or water, if applicable) before servicing
• Use the appropriate driver; start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten snugly—do not overtighten to prevent stripping metal or plastic
• Replace hardware one screw at a time to keep parts aligned

This part is a cooling fan assembly that is made for wall ovens. The primary function of this part is to circulate the air throughout the oven control area. This keeps the controls, wiring, and other components cool while the oven is in use.In the vent that the control panel itself becomes hot while the oven is running, it is likely that the cooling fan is not working. Some users report a loud rattling noise when this part has gone bad. Be sure to let the oven cool completely before replacing this part. Disconnect the wall oven from its power source before attempting to replace this part. Allow the appliance plenty of time to cool down before starting. Wear work gloves for safety.This specific cooling fan assembly is compatible with wall ovens that are manufactured by the Whirlpool brand, including Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, and Roper. It is sold individually and is sourced from the manufacturer.

This wire cover is a protective sleeve that helps route and shield appliance wiring to reduce wear and prevent accidental contact. It restores a neater harness run and helps maintain safe electrical routing inside the appliance. What it does:

• Protects wires from abrasion and chafing against sharp edges or moving parts
• Helps prevent exposed conductors that can cause shorts, arcing, or burning smells
• Keeps wiring bundled and routed to reduce pinching and stress on connectors
• Reduces risk of intermittent electrical issues caused by damaged insulation

• Disconnect power before beginning any service to avoid shock or injury
• Inspect surrounding wiring and connectors for damage; replace any frayed or exposed wires
• Slide cover over the wiring harness or route harness through sleeve as needed; secure with existing clips or approved fasteners

This terminal block is the insulated connection point where the appliance's incoming power ties into the internal wiring. Replacing a heat-damaged or loose block restores a safe, reliable electrical path and helps prevent arcing and intermittent power loss.

• Connects the supply conductors to the unit's internal wiring
• Provides insulated posts to securely fasten and distribute power
• Helps maintain tight, low-resistance connections
• Common failure signs: melted/discolored plastic, burned or loose terminals, arcing, scorching, or intermittent/no power after confirming the cord and breaker

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance; verify no voltage before servicing
• Photograph or label wire positions to ensure correct reassembly
• Inspect and replace any heat-damaged wire ends or lugs; use appropriate terminals
• Tighten connections securely and ensure wires are fully seated and strain-relieved as originally installed

This time-delay fuse protects the appliance's power circuit by opening when current exceeds a safe level while tolerating brief inrush current. Replacing a blown fuse can help restore power once the root cause is corrected. What it does:

• Protects the line and control circuits from shorts and overloads
• Time-delay design helps prevent nuisance opening during startup surges
• When open, the unit will be completely dead—no display, lights, or response
• Repeatedly opening usually indicates an unresolved electrical fault that needs diagnosis

• 1 time-delay fuse

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; some appliances can retain dangerous high voltage
• Replace only with the same type and rating specified by the manufacturer
• Inspect the fuse holder and wiring for heat damage or loose connections before reassembly
• If the new fuse opens immediately, stop and diagnose the underlying cause; never bypass or upsize a fuse

This 10-32 terminal block nut fastens wire lugs to the appliance's terminal studs. Replacing a missing, stripped, or corroded nut restores a tight, reliable connection and helps prevent heat damage or intermittent power at the connection.

• Secures wire lugs to a 10-32 terminal stud for a solid electrical connection
• Restores proper clamping force when the original nut is stripped, corroded, or missing
• Helps address loose/burned terminal connections, heat discoloration, or intermittent power at the block
• Suitable for terminal block and similar 10-32 stud applications on compatible appliances

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Inspect the terminal block, studs, and wiring for heat damage; replace any damaged components
• Clean threads and start the nut by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten firmly without overtightening
• If the stud turns while tightening, hold it with an appropriate tool to protect the block

The Screw is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges. This screw is used to secure various components of the range, ensuring that parts such as panels, brackets, or burners remain firmly in place during operation. It is designed to withstand the high-heat environment of a range, providing long-lasting durability.

Symptoms of a bad or missing Screw include:

• Loose or misaligned range components
• Rattling or unusual noises during operation
• Difficulty maintaining the range's structural stability

Causes of a failing or missing screw can include normal wear over time, accidental loss during maintenance or repairs, or damage from overtightening. Replacing faulty screws ensures the appliance remains safe and functional.

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