KitchenAid KHHC2090SSS

Model # KHHC2090SSS

KitchenAid sold the KHHC2090SSS as part of its US microwave oven range. No published specification for this model was recovered. What survives is the model number and a dated record of when KitchenAid was showing it, and that is what is set out here. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from December 2010 to June 2015 and gone after that.

KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KHHC2090SSS0, KHHC2090SSS1, KHHC2090SSS2, KHHC2090SSS3, KHHC2090SSS4. A plate reading one of those is still a KHHC2090SSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. That puts a KHHC2090SSS roughly ten to fifteen years into service, the point at which the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive tend to need attention. Discontinued does not mean unrepairable, but it does mean availability of the specific part for a KHHC2090SSS is established before any figure is put on the job.

FAQ

KitchenAid KHHC2090SSS FAQ

KitchenAid gives the location for its microwave ovens as inside the door, and that is where the KHHC2090SSS plate sits. It is an adhesive label, typically silver on major appliances, carrying the model number and the serial number together. Read the whole KHHC2090SSS string off the label rather than from memory, because it sits in a family of very similar numbers.

Production of the KHHC2090SSS 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 KHHC2090SSS is settled before any figure is put on the work.

On some builds the cavity lamp is reachable from inside, but on many it sits behind the casing. With the KHHC2090SSS unplugged at the wall, only a lamp accessible from within the cavity should be attempted. Where the lamp in a KHHC2090SSS is behind the casing, it is left to a technician for the same high-voltage reason as everything else in there.
