KitchenAid Microwave

KitchenAid KEMS379BSS

Model # KEMS379BSS

The KEMS379BSS is one of the KitchenAid microwave ovens. 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. KitchenAid’s US product site carried it from March 2013 to September 2015, and nothing was captured for it afterwards.

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 KEMS379BSS00. A plate reading one of those is still a KEMS379BSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A KEMS379BSS in use today is about a decade old, and the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive account for most of what it gets called out for. Since the model is out of production, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.

FAQ

KitchenAid KEMS379BSS FAQ

No - front badging is a series name, not a model number. The KEMS379BSS number comes off the plate inside the door, and that is the string to work from. Two machines wearing the same front badge can differ in parts, so the KEMS379BSS plate is what settles it.

Often yes, and where they cannot we say so at the point we find out, so you are not billed for work that cannot be completed. That check comes first on a discontinued model like the KEMS379BSS, not last.

It does, because the interlocks depend on the door sitting true. With the KEMS379BSS unplugged at the wall, the hinges and latch of a KEMS379BSS are inspected by a technician. A KEMS379BSS with a door that no longer closes properly should be taken out of use until it has been looked at.
