Description
The Wire Harness is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It is an intricate network of electrical wires that distributes power to components like the oven control board, temperature sensor, displays, buttons, lights, and more. Proper operation of these systems relies on an intact and functioning wire harness.
Causes of a bad wire harness can include cracked insulation, and exposed or severed wires due to stress and movement over time. The harness may also develop shorts, abrasions, or disconnects in wiring due to normal wear and repeated use of the oven door.
Symptoms of a bad wire harness include:
- Sudden failure of control buttons, lights, or displays
- Unstable or fluctuating oven temperatures
- Electrical burning smells when the oven is in use
- Intermittent or complete lack of power to oven systems
This Whirlpool replacement part is compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore electric ranges.
