Whirlpool WP4455334 Cooling Blower Kit OEM Part

I have a 10 year old Kitchenaid double oven with warming drawer below and electrical connection is located in cabinet below. I order a service manual from http://www.allrepairmanuals.com. If you have the service manual follow it, it walks a technician thru each step. If you don't have a manual here are a few highlights. Disclaimer the following is for my oven model KEBS208DBL8, your oven service steps may vary. IMPORTANT! First step turn-off the power to the oven (mine was a 40 amp breaker) at your homes power distribution panel. Flip circuit breaker to off position and use a lock on the breaker to ensure it remains off. The voltage may not kill you but the current in the circuit may very well ruin your day. Verify at oven that power has been disconnected (no lights on control panel). Since I am working alone I built a sturdy table that I could slide the oven onto so I could work on it; saving my back. Make sure to order the "Door Removal Pin Kit" this is key since the doors make up the majority of the ovens weight. With door fully open slide in the pins on each hinge. Close the door as far as possible and lift door upwards to disengage the hinges from the oven frame. To remove oven from cabinet you need to remove the oven frame side rails. Easy to do there is one screw near bottom of each rail. Remove screw and lift and pull outward from bottom to disengage top of rail. Now you have access to mounting screws holding oven to cabinet. Note slide the oven out about 6 inches or so in order to remove the bottom plastic vent cover; 1 screw on each side. You need to remove this plastic cover or you risk damaging it when you set the oven down; I did. The upper blower motor requires you to remove the oven back (11 screws). The back is simply a sheet metal shield to protect cabinet back and provide air channel for heat ventilation; it also covers other electrical components and the "convection" fan if so equipped. While not required I removed sheet metal from top of oven as well for easier access and cleaning of surrounding area. Removal of the blower motor requires you disconnect two wires from blower motor; spade connectors pull off easily. Pay attention to which wire connects to which terminal; make a note of take a picture with your phone camera. The blower is held in with 4 screws. To install the blower, reverse the steps above. Note that I ordered the Cooling Blower Kit, however it turned out I only needed the blower unit and the foam seal. Good Luck

Had to remove oven from wall cabinet and take off top sheet metal and front console to get to the fan. The new part went right in.

Replaced fan with this cooling blower kit from you fit perfectly and solved problem

Had the benefit of watching the repair guys pull the oven out and replace a thermostat a few weeks prior to the fan failure. At the apllianceparts website I could look up the exploded views, identify the part number, order, pay n wait for it to show up. Like, two days later the fan arrived. Part came complete w installation instructions and mounting modifications necessary for the upgraded style. 30 minutes later I had the thing installed n running. Cost $220 and the hassle of waiting for the repair guys to install the thermostat. This time, cost $160 bux for the part n I did it myself. Aplliancepartspros.com is pretty awesome.

Turned off power to the oven. Remobed the trim and unscrewed 4 screws holdin the ovens to the wall. Removed the upper and lower doors from the oven. Placed a folding chair on each side ofnthe oven. This was about the right height to support my stove. Then with the assistance of my friend we slidnrhe stove out of the wall onto the open folding chairs. We removed the top cover and back cover exposing the upper and lower fan. We then unscrewed the fans and removed the power clips. A pair of pliers or an offset screwed driver was needed.for.the lower fan. installation was just tje reverse. Before placing the obens back in the wall, power wad temporarily restored to test the installation and operation. Aftet a successful test power was turned off. The oven was slid back into the wall. Screws were replaced. The trim and the doors were then replaced.
