KitchenAid KEHC379J

Model # KEHC379J

The KEHC379J is one of the KitchenAid microwave ovens. 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 December 2005 and nowhere after that.

A microwave oven of that vintage is two decades or more into service, and the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive are long past as-new. The KEHC379J is discontinued, so the parts question gets answered first and the price second.

Most Common Issues on This Model

01

Keypad legends worn away with use, so the panel is hard to read

02

A door seal face damaged, which the oven can read as an interlock fault

03

A magnetron reaching the end of its life, showing as heating that has become slow and uneven

04

A door interlock switch that has failed, so the oven lights and runs its fan but will not heat

FAQ

KitchenAid KEHC379J FAQ

For a KEHC379J, look inside the door. That is the location KitchenAid publishes for its microwave ovens, and the label there is the authoritative source for the number - front-panel badging and box labels often differ from what is actually on the KEHC379J.

Sometimes, yes - a discontinued model like the KEHC379J can mean waiting on a specialist supplier for an obsolete part. We establish that on a KEHC379J before the job starts, so the choice between waiting, substituting where a substitute genuinely exists, and replacing the machine is yours to make with the facts in front of you.

Where filters are fitted, they wash in hot water with detergent and go back dry. With the KEHC379J unplugged at the wall, they lift out from underneath. Doing that regularly keeps the fan on a KEHC379J from labouring, and it is the one piece of maintenance that makes a real difference.
