Whirlpool WMH31017HW7 / WMH31017HS7 filters and turntable parts
Whirlpool's 2021 Repair Parts List explicitly covers WMH31017HW7 (white) and WMH31017HS7 (stainless). It identifies grease filter W10208631, charcoal filter W10845250, turntable W11381953, ring with rollers W11193600 and driver W11193599. The linked W10835574 Use and Care Guide covers owner-level filter cleaning/replacement and the turntable; the model-specific parts list is the fitment receipt, while current replacement/supersession status still needs a fresh Whirlpool lookup.
Safety boundary
- Keep service within the owner's manual's accessible filter and turntable care. Turn off/disconnect power before filter service as Whirlpool's filter guidance directs.
- Do not remove the microwave's outer cabinet or attempt internal electrical, magnetron, or high-voltage repair; use qualified service for internal faults.
- Do not force a filter, grille, tray, ring, or driver that does not seat normally; stop and verify the full label and part with Whirlpool.
Compatibility requires a direct model listing, explicit supersession, or equivalent manufacturer evidence.

Required identifiers
- Complete model label must read WMH31017HW7 (white) or WMH31017HS7 (stainless)
- Identify whether the item is the grease filter, charcoal filter, glass turntable, roller ring, or turntable driver
- Check the exact model and any printed part number in Whirlpool's current parts lookup before ordering, especially if an older part was superseded
Compatibility rules
- Whirlpool Repair Parts List W11553912 Rev. A names exactly WMH31017HW7 and WMH31017HS7 on its cover; its parts tables list W10208631 as the grease filter and W10845250 as the charcoal filter.
- The same model-specific parts list identifies W11381953 as the turntable, W11193600 as the ring with rollers, and W11193599 as the turntable driver.
- Apply this receipt only to the two complete model numbers above. Do not expand fitment to a WMH31017 model with another suffix, color variant, or production revision without a matching Whirlpool lookup.
- The parts list establishes the part numbers printed for these models; it does not establish current stock, an unlisted replacement part, or a one-way/two-way supersession.
Never assume
- WMH31017HS or WMH31017HW without the trailing 7 is the same complete model as the listed HS7/HW7 models.
- A charcoal filter is needed in an installation that vents outdoors; verify the actual vent path and manual.
- Similar-looking glass trays, rings, drivers, or filters are compatible based on size or appearance alone.
- The older printed part list proves a current supersession or present-day availability.
Exact model-to-part receipt
- WMH31017HW7 (white) and WMH31017HS7 (stainless) are the only variants named by the Whirlpool Repair Parts List W11553912 Rev. A.
- Grease filter W10208631; charcoal filter W10845250.
- Glass turntable W11381953; turntable ring with rollers W11193600; turntable driver W11193599.
- Whirlpool's linked Use and Care Guide is W10835574; use it for owner care, not as evidence for a different model suffix.
Choose the filter by vent configuration
The grease filter is the underside hood filter and the charcoal filter is the recirculating-odor filter. Whirlpool's owner guidance says charcoal filtration is used when the unit is not vented outdoors; inspect the installed duct/recirculation setup before selecting the charcoal-filter path.
Whirlpool's linked guide describes monthly grease-filter cleaning and charcoal-filter replacement guidance. Verify the exact guide steps for the appliance label rather than relying on a generic-looking filter.
Before ordering a turntable part
- Compare the full model suffix and any readable marking on the removed part.
- Distinguish the glass turntable (W11381953), ring (W11193600), and driver (W11193599); a turntable rotation symptom alone does not identify which component failed.
- Confirm current part status or any Whirlpool supersession against the exact model; this record does not invent an alternate.
