KitchenAid KCMS2055SSS

Model # KCMS2055SSS

KitchenAid sold the KCMS2055SSS as part of its US microwave oven range. No published specification for this model was recovered, so there is no dimension or capacity quoted on this page. A number lifted from a sibling model would be worse than silence. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from December 2009 to September 2011 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 KCMS2055SSS2. A plate reading one of those is still a KCMS2055SSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. That puts a KCMS2055SSS 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. Being out of production, a KCMS2055SSS has its parts position checked at the outset rather than after a diagnosis.

FAQ

KitchenAid KCMS2055SSS FAQ

KitchenAid gives the location for its microwave ovens as inside the door, and that is where the KCMS2055SSS plate sits. It is an adhesive label, typically silver on major appliances, carrying the model number and the serial number together. Read the whole KCMS2055SSS string off the label rather than from memory, because it sits in a family of very similar numbers.

Production of the KCMS2055SSS 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 KCMS2055SSS 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 KCMS2055SSS unplugged at the wall, the door latch and interlocks are what a technician checks first. Nothing behind the outer casing of a KCMS2055SSS is owner-serviceable, because components in there hold a charge even after the oven is unplugged.
