KitchenAid KCMS1555SSS

Model # KCMS1555SSS

The KCMS1555SSS is a US-market KitchenAid microwave oven. 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 sat in KitchenAid’s US catalogue from November 2010 until April 2012, which is the window the archive records.

KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KCMS1555SSS1. A plate reading one of those is still a KCMS1555SSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. Ten years and more into service, a KCMS1555SSS is at the age where the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive are the usual suspects. The KCMS1555SSS is discontinued, so the parts question gets answered first and the price second.

FAQ

KitchenAid KCMS1555SSS FAQ

The plate inside the door carries everything needed: the full KCMS1555SSS model string and the serial number beside it. With those two, a part for a KCMS1555SSS can be identified before anyone travels out, which saves a wasted visit.

The KCMS1555SSS is out of production, and whether repair beats replacement comes down to which component has gone. A seal, a switch or a control is usually straightforward economics on a KCMS1555SSS; a major assembly on a machine of this age often is not, and we will say which one you are looking at.

Where the unit is installed over a range, grease loading on the fan and filters is the usual cause. With the KCMS1555SSS unplugged at the wall, the grease filters can be taken out and washed by an owner. Anything beyond the filters on a KCMS1555SSS is technician work, because the casing has to come off.
