Parts for Kitchenaid KURL104EPA01: Unit Parts

This drip pan is the replacement drain tray that catches defrost and condensation water to help prevent leaks and puddling under the appliance. It restores the unit's normal water collection and drainage path. What it does:

• Collects defrost and condensation water from the evaporator area.
• Directs water toward the drain channel to prevent pooling under the appliance.
• Helps reduce risk of water damage to flooring from leaks or overflow.
• Addresses symptoms like water puddling beneath the unit or visible drips.

• Designed for straightforward replacement; use appliance-specific service manual for exact procedure.
• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before starting any service.
• Handle carefully to avoid bending tabs or damaging mounting locations.

This capacitor helps the appliance's motor start and run smoothly by providing a brief electrical boost when the motor needs it. Replacing a failing capacitor restores normal motor performance and reduces start-up strain. What it does:

• Provides the initial electrical charge to help the motor start and maintain stable operation
• Commonly replaced when the motor hums, struggles to start, or fails to reach normal speed
• Helps reduce stress on the motor and other start components
• Works as the electrical component between the appliance control and motor during start cycles

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Discharge the capacitor before handling to avoid shock
• Verify terminal orientation and secure connections; replace with identical part number

This overload is a thermal motor protector that helps prevent motor damage by cutting power if the motor overheats. It replaces a failed protector to restore proper motor safety protection in laundry appliances. What it does:

• Protects the motor by interrupting power when excessive heat or current is detected
• Commonly replaces a failed protector after motor overheating or repeated thermal trips
• Symptom linkage: appliance motor won't start, runs briefly then stops, or trips thermal protection
• Works as a safety device—does not restore motors that have suffered internal mechanical damage

• Always disconnect power before accessing the appliance or replacing the part
• Handle and route wiring carefully; ensure secure connections and correct orientation

This motor condenser is the replacement capacitor that helps a dryer or washer motor start and run smoothly. Replacing a failing condenser restores reliable motor operation and can stop humming, sluggish starts, or intermittent motor run. What it does:

• Provides the motor with the brief boost needed to start reliably
• Helps maintain steady motor rotation during operation
• Commonly used when motors hum, fail to start, or run weakly
• Stabilizes motor performance under normal load conditions

• One motor condenser (replacement capacitor) as shown

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock hazard
• Carefully discharge the capacitor before touching terminals
• Use appropriate tools and note wire locations or take a photo before removal

This sealer is a flexible sealing strip used to restore a tight fit where panels or doors meet, helping reduce leaks, drafts and moisture transfer. It replaces worn or damaged seals to help appliances run as intended. What it does:

• Creates a compression seal along a door or panel to prevent air and moisture leakage
• Helps maintain proper temperature control and reduces unwanted drafts
• Stops visible gaps caused by cracked, torn or flattened seal material
• Can reduce short-cycling related to poor sealing by improving the enclosure fit

• Disconnect power and water before starting any repair
• Remove the old seal carefully to avoid damaging surrounding trim or clips
• Clean mating surfaces thoroughly before installing the new sealer for best adhesion and fit
• Some installations require adhesive, retainer clips, or light trimming for a correct fit

This thermistor is a refrigerator temperature sensor that detects internal air temperature and sends that signal to the control board so the appliance can maintain proper cooling. Replaces a failed or intermittent sensor to restore accurate temperature control. What it does:

• Senses the refrigerator/freezer air temperature and converts it to an electrical signal for the control board
• Helps the control system cycle the compressor and fans for stable temperatures
• Common failure symptoms: erratic or warm temps, frequent cycling, or temperature error codes
• Can affect automatic defrost timing and ice maker behavior when readings are incorrect

• One thermistor sensor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Handle the sensor and wiring gently; avoid kinking or stressing the probe and leads
• Plug the connector fully into the matching harness and secure the sensor in its mounting clip or hole

This genuine replacement power cord restores safe, reliable electrical connection for compatible ranges and ovens. It replaces a damaged or frayed cord so the appliance can receive mains power without safety hazards. What it does

• Delivers AC mains power to the appliance via the factory connector and terminal block
• Replaces cords with exposed wires, scorch marks, melting, or broken insulation
• Stops intermittent power loss caused by damaged or loose cord connections
• Prevents arcing and reduces fire risk from compromised power leads

• One replacement power cord

• Always disconnect household power at the breaker before servicing the appliance
• Verify the cord matches your appliance's terminal block and local electrical code; a licensed electrician may be required
• Inspect and reuse or replace the strain relief and terminal block screws as needed for a safe connection
• Do not attempt repairs if wiring or terminals are corroded—replace damaged components

This replacement dryer tube channels heated air from the dryer cabinet to the lint filter/blower and exhaust path, restoring proper airflow and helping the cycle dry clothes efficiently. Use it when the original tube is cracked, crushed, or blocked. What it does

• Directs dryer airflow from the drum/blower chamber to the lint trap and exhaust.
• Helps maintain proper venting to prevent overheating and inefficient drying.
• Reduces air leaks that can cause longer dry times or hot spots.
• Minimizes lint buildup in the cabinet by providing a smooth, routed path for debris to the lint filter.

• One dryer tube

• Disconnect power (and gas supply if applicable) before servicing; ensure the dryer is completely powered off.
• Remove front or rear access panel as required to reach and replace the tube; keep fasteners for reassembly.
• Inspect adjacent seals and clamps; replace any damaged gaskets or worn clamps for a secure fit.
• Use gloves to avoid sharp sheet-metal edges and run a short test cycle to ensure proper airflow and quiet operation.

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.
 

Note: The original compressor service kit 8201787, which was used as the service replacement for compressor 4344775, is no longer available. Whirlpool has a service bulletin to help determine if there is a service replacement for your model. Contact us for more information.
