• One exhaust vent housing.

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before starting work.
• Inspect and replace any worn gaskets, clamps, or vent hose to ensure a proper seal.

This blower is the internal cooling fan that circulates air through the appliance to keep components at safe temperatures and maintain proper airflow. Replacing a failed or noisy blower restores ventilation and reliable operation.

• Moves air across heat-sensitive parts to prevent overheating
• Maintains proper ventilation inside the unit
• Common symptoms: fan not running, loud grinding/squealing, intermittent operation
• May cause hot control panel, over-temp errors, or unexpected shutdowns

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Access location varies by model; retain and transfer any brackets, seals, or fasteners from the original
• Note wire/connector orientation and airflow direction; match to the original
• After installation, verify the fan spins freely and no wiring contacts the impeller

This foam seal fits between mating parts to create a tight barrier that helps prevent leaks and rattling. Replacing a worn or missing seal restores proper sealing and helps keep your appliance running quietly. What it does:

• Creates a compliant gasket between components to limit air or moisture passage
• Helps dampen vibration and reduce rattling/buzzing where parts meet
• Helps maintain proper airflow or fluid routing as designed
• Typical symptoms include leaks, condensation/frost near a joint, or new vibration noises

• One foam seal

• Disconnect power; turn off the water supply before service
• Note the original seal's routing/orientation before removal
• Clean and dry all mating surfaces; remove old foam and residue
• Install without stretching or over-compressing; ensure even contact with no gaps

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

Size: 8-18 x 3/8 inch.

Screw for control panel vent.

The Terminal Block is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It serves as a crucial connection point for the range’s electrical wiring, ensuring a safe and reliable transfer of power to the appliance.

Over time, terminal blocks can deteriorate due to factors such as heat exposure, electrical surges, or wear and tear. When the terminal block becomes damaged or corroded, it can lead to poor electrical connections or potential safety hazards.

Symptoms of a bad terminal block include:

• Burnt or scorched connections
• Intermittent power loss to the range
• Difficulty in the range heating up properly
• Visible damage or corrosion on the terminal block

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

This mounting bracket is a replacement support bracket that secures appliance components and keeps assemblies aligned for reliable operation. It restores proper fit and helps prevent rattling or movement from loose fittings. What it does:

• Secures panels or assemblies to the appliance frame to maintain proper alignment
• Reduces vibration and rattling caused by loose or damaged supports
• Restores mounting points that prevent sagging or separation of connected parts
• Helps ensure stable operation after repairs involving removed or replaced hardware

• Follow the appliance service manual for exact location and fastener torque
• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before beginning any repair
• Use appropriate tools and replace any damaged screws or clips with OEM-equivalent fasteners

This transient suppressor helps protect the appliance's electronic control by absorbing voltage spikes and filtering electrical noise on the power line. Replacing a failed suppressor can restore control stability after power events. What it does:

• Clamps transient voltage spikes to help protect the control board from surge-induced damage
• Filters electrical noise that can cause erratic displays, resets, or nuisance shutoffs
• Typically mounts near the main control and wires per the unit's schematic
• Common signs include a charred/cracked component, burnt odor, or repeated control failures after power issues

• One transient suppressor module

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; verify no power is present
• Photograph/label wiring and move leads one at a time per the model's wiring diagram
• Mount securely and route wires away from sharp edges and high-heat sources
• After a surge event, inspect the control and wiring for additional damage

This replacement transformer steps down household 120VAC, 60Hz power to the low voltage used by the appliance's electronic control. Replacing a failed transformer can restore power to the display/clock and control circuits so cooking functions respond properly. What it does:

• Converts 120VAC line power to low-voltage for the control board/clock and related circuits
• Helps provide stable power to the display and control relays
• Helps resolve: blank or intermittent display, unresponsive controls, oven not starting, or visible heat damage to the original transformer

• One transformer

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; verify no voltage is present
• Note and label all wire positions or take photos before removal; transfer connections one-for-one
• Mount securely and route leads away from sharp edges and hot surfaces
• Inspect wiring and the control board for shorts before restoring power
