KitchenAid KCMS145JSS

Model # KCMS145JSS

The KCMS145JSS is one of the KitchenAid microwave ovens. 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 sat in KitchenAid’s US catalogue from November 2001 until August 2014, which is the window the archive records.

A KCMS145JSS still in a kitchen today has twenty-odd years behind it, and that age shows first in the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive. Being out of production, a KCMS145JSS has its parts position checked at the outset rather than after a diagnosis.

Most Common Issues on This Model

01

Door hinge and latch wear, so the door sits proud of the frame and the interlocks no longer line up

02

Exhaust fan noise or failure, where the unit is installed over a range

03

Grease and charcoal filters left unchanged, which shows as poor extraction and a labouring fan

04

High-voltage component failure, which is bench work for a technician rather than anything an owner can inspect

FAQ

KitchenAid KCMS145JSS FAQ

The KCMS145JSS label sits inside the door, in KitchenAid's own words. It is the adhesive label used across their major appliances and it carries both numbers. A photograph of the KCMS145JSS label is the most reliable thing you can send us.

Not usually in labour. What age changes on a KCMS145JSS is the chance that a given part has to come from a specialist supplier rather than off the shelf, and that is established at the outset so the price you are given is the price of the actual job.

It can. A magnetron approaching the end of its life heats slowly and unevenly, which owners usually notice as longer reheating times on a KCMS145JSS. With the KCMS145JSS unplugged at the wall, that diagnosis is bench work rather than anything to test at home.
