It replaces discontinued Whirlpool part numbers 8273902, W10131826 and W10181986. The sensor measures the temperature inside the oven cavity and sends a changing resistance signal to the electronic oven control, which uses it to regulate the bake and broil heating systems. This is the oven-cavity temperature sensor — not a meat-temperature probe, oven thermostat, thermal fuse, high-limit thermostat or electronic oven control board. Is This the Right Part? Part NumberWPW10181986 Replaces8273902, W10131826, W10181986 ManufacturerWhirlpool Corporation Appliance TypeRange (oven temperature sensor) Fits select Whirlpool-manufactured ranges. Confirm the complete appliance model before ordering. Common Symptoms Oven overheating, or temperature below the selected setting Uneven or unstable baking temperatures; long preheat times Little or no oven heat Temperature-related fault codes Check Before Replacing Sensor wiring and connector; electronic oven control Bake and broil heating components; gas ignition system (gas models) Door gasket and power supply Oven calibration setting Pro Tip: At normal room temperature the sensor should typically measure approximately 1,080–1,100 ohms — use the service specification for the exact model before condemning it. These symptoms do not independently prove sensor failure; inspect the wiring, connector, control, heating components and calibration first. This sensor may restore accurate temperature regulation when testing confirms the original sensor or its circuit is defective. Part Details Part TypeSealed oven-cavity temperature sensor probe Primary FunctionMeasures oven-cavity temperature and reports resistance to the electronic control Key FeatureGenuine Whirlpool OEM sensor ConditionGenuine OEM — New Installation Notes Disconnect electrical power before testing or replacing the sensor. Photograph the connector and mounting position. Test resistance against the model-specific service specification. Compare the new sensor with the original before installation. Verify oven temperature after reassembly. Use a qualified technician when diagnosis or installation is outside your experience.
