8201673 Whirlpool Main Control Board Kit

This product is a white refrigerator electronic control board kit that comes with a touchpad. It is compatible with multiple Whirlpool brand refrigerators, including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, it fits appliances sold under the Sears-Kenmore and Ikea brand names.

The control board is crucial for managing functions such as the refrigerator's temperature, defrost cycles, and other essential operations. A malfunctioning board can lead to issues like the refrigerator not maintaining the correct temperature, with the compressor either running continuously or not starting at all.

Before replacing the control board, make sure to unplug the refrigerator. It is advisable to transfer perishables to another cooling unit during the installation process. To install the new board, remove the wire harness and mounting screws from the existing control panel and then fit the new board in place.

This is an authentic OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part, ensuring reliability and compatibility with the listed Whirlpool brand refrigerators. Please note, the kit is sold as a standalone item and does not include additional hardware.
