Description
The Control Board is an OEM part for Whirlpool built-in and countertop microwaves. Located at the "brain" of the appliance, it contains electronic modules, circuits and components that allow for operation of cooking functions and power levels.
Causes of a bad control board can involve physical impacts disrupting circuit connectivity or failures in moisture-sensitive surface mount technologies due to repeated steam exposure over time.
Symptoms include:
- Inability to power on or non-responsive buttons and dials
- Faulty cooking as sensors and timers malfunction
- Diagnostic error codes relating to control circuitry
- Potential arcing or sparks from inside due to shorts
This OEM Whirlpool replacement is also compatible with models from KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Admiral, Norge, and select Kenmore models
