WPW10016550 Whirlpool Lower Blower Assembly

The Lower Blower Assembly is a genuine original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part designed for use in various Whirlpool ranges. This component is strategically positioned beneath the oven cavity, where it functions to distribute heated air evenly across the oven during convection-based cooking processes.

Whirlpool manufactures a range of products under its brand as well as for other brands including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, Admiral, and also supplies certain components for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea appliances.

Issues with the lower blower assembly typically stem from the electric motor wearing out after prolonged exposure to high temperatures. Additionally, accumulation of grease or dirt in the fan housing can lead to restricted airflow, thereby diminishing the assembly's efficiency.

Signs that the lower blower assembly may be malfunctioning include:
- Insufficient air movement within the oven, affecting cooking performance.
- Slower cooking times or uneven cooking results, particularly when using convection settings.
- Unusual noises such as rattling or grinding coming from the oven's base.
- The lower blower fan failing to activate or operate.

This part is also compatible with select models from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, and some Kenmore ranges.
