The Whirlpool W10877013 Range Electronic Control Board is the central processor of your Whirlpool electric range. This crucial component functions like a conductor in a symphony, receiving signals from a variety of range components including knobs, thermometers, and timers. It reads these impulses and converts them into instructions for other components, such as heating elements and relays. This allows it to control critical oven functions such as baking, broiling, and self-cleaning. A faulty control board can result in a range of problems, including irregular temperature control, unresponsive buttons, or even a total oven failure. The W10877013 replaces a defective control board and restores correct communication and performance between range components. This guarantees that your oven performs according to your preferred settings, allowing you to bake cakes and broil steaks.
