The Whirlpool WP8507P233-60 Range Electronic Control Board is behind your Whirlpool, KitchenAid, or Maytag electric ranges. This crucial part serves as the main control centre, guaranteeing the effective and secure operation of your range. This is an explanation of how it functions: User commands are sent to the control board via buttons, knobs, and a digital display. It deciphers these commands and converts them into signals that control different range components. For example, changing the temperature sends signals to the oven or cooktop to regulate the heating elements. In order to avoid overheating and facilitate safe operation, the control board also communicates with safety measures such as temperature sensors and door locks.
