The KECD865HWH belongs to KitchenAid’s US cooktop catalogue. No published specification for this model was recovered — no dimension, no capacity, no feature list — so none is stated here, and no figure has been taken from a neighbouring model number. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from November 2001 to August 2003 and gone after that.
KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KECD865HWH2, KECD865HWH3. A plate reading one of those is still a KECD865HWH; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A cooktop of that vintage is two decades or more into service, and the switches, the element or burner connections and the control knobs are long past as-new. Since the model is out of production, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.
