KitchenAid KBMS1454BWH

Model # KBMS1454BWH

KBMS1454BWH is one of the microwave oven model numbers KitchenAid carried in the United States. No published specification for this model was recovered. Rather than fill the gap with a figure borrowed from a similar-looking number, this page says only what the sources actually carry. It appears on KitchenAid’s US product site in September 2013 and nowhere 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 KBMS1454BWH0. A plate reading one of those is still a KBMS1454BWH; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. That puts a KBMS1454BWH roughly ten to fifteen years into service, the point at which the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive tend to need attention. The KBMS1454BWH is discontinued, so the parts question gets answered first and the price second.

FAQ

KitchenAid KBMS1454BWH FAQ

KitchenAid gives the location for its microwave ovens as inside the door, and that is where the KBMS1454BWH plate sits. It is an adhesive label, typically silver on major appliances, carrying the model number and the serial number together. Read the whole KBMS1454BWH string off the label rather than from memory, because it sits in a family of very similar numbers.

Production of the KBMS1454BWH ended some time ago. That does not rule out a repair - the wear items are largely shared across a generation - but it does mean the parts question on a KBMS1454BWH is settled before any figure is put on the work.

It usually means an interlock switch or a high-voltage component has failed. With the KBMS1454BWH unplugged at the wall, the door latch and interlocks are what a technician checks first. Nothing behind the outer casing of a KBMS1454BWH is owner-serviceable, because components in there hold a charge even after the oven is unplugged.
