Whirlpool WP4451042 Oven Thermal Fuse OEM Part

This is for the Whirlpool in-wall double oven GBD307PDS10. No power and the door locked after the shutdown before the self-cleaning cycle was over. I watched some video and this is a known issue the fuses blow during self-cleaning. I opened the door with a 90-degree hook, an easy task. Took doors off (watch video from others), unscrewed from the wall, and made a very small platform. and took the oven out (need two people and take the doors off first. The doors are heavy and you won't lift the oven with the doors on). MAKE SURE THE POWER IS SWITCHED OFF. The wiring diagram says that the fuse on the back for the top oven would be WP9759242, but it actually is WP9759243. And as shown in the videos, the fuse connected to the main board was dead as well. In my oven, it was the WP4456654, not the WP4451042. Oven worked again, BUT I realized that the main wire connection is attached to a Whirlpool part# 8302143 (called suppressor), and the connection of the neutral was loose. it fried the connections and was close to creating a fire !!!. CHECK THE WIRE CONNECTORS BEFORE PUTTING THE OVEN BACK INTO THE WALL. I needed to replace the suppressor AND the terminal block, both were partly fried and damaged. Clean the wire connectors before you put everything together at the terminal block. If you don't know which part you need, order more, and send back what you don't need. I had to purchase parts three times and had to pay to ship three times until I had everything I needed. contact me if you wish, I have made plenty of pictures, but there is no place here to upload them.

I purchased a thermal fuse per Appliance Parts Pros suggestion. It arrived less than 24 hours later. I turned off the circuit breaker to the stove, opened up the control panel area and removed the old thermal fuse. One side was difficult to remove, so I used needle nosed pliers to tug it loose (per on-line live chat instructions from an operator). It came free, installed the new fuse and put the panel back onto the oven. Presto! The oven was fixed. Thanks to the diagnosis and on-going help from Aplliance Parts Pros.

Downloaded repair Manila online, removed control panel and oven from wall, tested both thermal fuse, both had blown. Replaced both, oven works perfectly !

We replaced it with a new thermal fuse and both ovens work great. another satisfied customer. thank you appliance parts pros for your excellent parts and prompt shipping ;)

Tested the power source and kept testing until I found it. Thermal Fuse was burned out after 15 years. Not bad for the amount paid for the part plus shipping ( under $25). Double Oven is as good as new ! Well worth the research on-line... Maybe it will last enough 15 years.
