WP6700 — Identify the Appliance or Part (How to Find the Right Part or Model)

Understanding the Problem

You've provided 'WP6700' with no additional context. That string could be a partial part number, a model number, or a typo. Many manufacturers (notably Whirlpool) use a 'WP' prefix on genuine replacement parts, but a short code alone is usually not enough to identify the exact component or appliance. Ordering or replacing parts based on an incomplete identifier risks getting the wrong item. To accurately diagnose and recommend the correct replacement part or repair steps, I need the appliance make (Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, GE, Samsung, etc.), the full model number of the appliance (usually on a tag or sticker), the exact location where you found 'WP6700' (on a board, sticker, burned part, paperwork), and a short description of the symptom the appliance is showing.

Common Symptoms

Unable to identify replacement part or model from a short code; user unsure which part to order; appliance still faulty after attempted repair due to wrong part selection.

Common Causes

  • WP6700 is an incomplete or truncated part number — many genuine part numbers are longer
  • WP6700 might be an internal factory code or date/batch marking rather than a service part number
  • Typo or missing prefix/suffix (e.g., missing letters/numbers before/after WP6700) or confusion between model vs. part number

Helpful Repair Tip

Locate and photograph the appliance model/serial tag (usually inside the door, on the frame, on the back, or under the lid). If 'WP6700' is printed on a part, take a clear close-up photo of the part and its surrounding area — that will let me identify the component and recommend the correct replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I quickly find out if WP6700 is the correct part for my appliance?

Check the appliance model/serial tag (photo it). Look for the full part label where you saw 'WP6700' — many genuine Whirlpool parts include a longer number (for example WPWxxxxx). Search a parts site using the full appliance model number or upload the photo to a parts seller. If you're still unsure, send me the appliance make, full model number, where you found WP6700, and a photo and I will identify the correct part.

Can I order WP6700 directly and replace it myself?

Not yet — because 'WP6700' is ambiguous. Ordering the wrong part wastes time and money and can damage the appliance. First confirm the appliance make and full model number, confirm the full part number on the component, and review basic safety steps (unplug appliance, turn off water/gas if applicable). If you provide the model and photos I can tell you the exact replacement part and give step-by-step replacement guidance.
