KitchenAid Range

KitchenAid KERS505XSS

Model # KERS505XSS

The KERS505XSS is one of the KitchenAid ranges. No published specification for this model was recovered, and none is invented here to fill the space. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from January 2015 to May 2015 and gone after that.

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 KERS505XSS00, KERS505XSS01, KERS505XSS02, KERS505XSS03. A plate reading one of those is still a KERS505XSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. That puts a KERS505XSS roughly ten to fifteen years into service, the point at which the door seal, the oven sensing and the surface controls tend to need attention. The KERS505XSS is no longer made, so what can actually be obtained for it is the first thing looked at, not the last.

FAQ

KitchenAid KERS505XSS FAQ

KitchenAid gives the location for its ranges as inside the oven's door, and that is where the KERS505XSS plate sits. It is an adhesive label, typically silver on major appliances, carrying the model number and the serial number together. Read the whole KERS505XSS string off the label rather than from memory, because it sits in a family of very similar numbers.

Production of the KERS505XSS ended some time ago. That does not rule out a repair - the wear items are largely shared across a generation - but it does mean the parts question on a KERS505XSS is settled before any figure is put on the work.

With the range switched off at its supply, the oven temperature sensor on a KERS505XSS is the first part measured, because a drifted sensor makes the control heat to the wrong figure. Only once the sensor on a KERS505XSS has been proved are the heating components considered.
