KitchenAid KEMC378KWH

Model # KEMC378KWH

KEMC378KWH 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. The archive of KitchenAid’s US product site holds it from November 2001 through to October 2003, and no later capture carries it.

KitchenAid appends a two-digit production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KEMC378KWH04. A plate reading one of those is still a KEMC378KWH; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. By now a KEMC378KWH is an old machine, and the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive carry most of the wear. The KEMC378KWH is discontinued, so the parts question gets answered first and the price second.

FAQ

KitchenAid KEMC378KWH FAQ

Inside the door is where KitchenAid says the label is, and that holds for the KEMC378KWH. The label there gives the model and the serial. Copying the KEMC378KWH string character by character is worth the extra minute, since one letter separates several different machines.

On a discontinued machine like the KEMC378KWH there is a reasonable case for it: clearing filters, checking seals and confirming the electrical connections are sound is cheap, and it catches the wear items on a KEMC378KWH while they are still ordinary parts rather than emergencies.

Usually yes, and it is a membrane rather than the whole oven. With the KEMC378KWH unplugged at the wall, a technician separates the panel from the control to establish which has failed, so only the failed part of a KEMC378KWH is replaced.
