KitchenAid KHMS147HWH

Model # KHMS147HWH

The KHMS147HWH is a KitchenAid microwave oven. 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 February 2002 to August 2003, and nothing was captured for it afterwards.

KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KHMS147HWH2. A plate reading one of those is still a KHMS147HWH; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. That puts the KHMS147HWH two decades or more into use, which is where the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive start to decide how the machine behaves. Since the model is out of production, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.

FAQ

KitchenAid KHMS147HWH FAQ

KitchenAid places the plate inside the door, so that is where the KHMS147HWH label will be. Model and serial are printed on the same sticker. Getting the KHMS147HWH number exactly right matters most on an older machine, where parts diverged between otherwise identical-looking siblings.

Then the job stops there and you are told. The KHMS147HWH has been out of production for long enough that this is a real possibility on some components, which is why availability for a KHMS147HWH is checked before a diagnosis is charged for rather than after.

Usually to the door interlocks rather than to the control. With the KHMS147HWH unplugged at the wall, a technician checks the latch and the interlock chain on a KHMS147HWH first, because a display that lights proves the low-voltage side of a KHMS147HWH is alive.
