Parts for Maytag LSE7800: 02 - Blower Housing / Thermostats & Lint Screen Parts

The Retaining Clip is an OEM part for Whirlpool stand mixers. This small but essential part ensures the stability and secure fitting of various mixer components, contributing significantly to the appliance's overall performance and durability. Its primary role is to hold parts in place, preventing movement that could lead to wear or malfunction during operation.

Stand mixers are subjected to a variety of stresses, particularly when mixing thick doughs or other dense mixtures. The retaining clip's integrity is vital in these situations, as it helps to maintain the correct alignment and functioning of the mixer's moving parts. 

Symptoms of a bad Retaining Clip in a stand mixer include:

• Components such as beaters or attachments becoming loose or detaching during use.
• Unusual vibration or noise 
• Difficulty in attaching or detaching mixer attachments  

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Blower Wheel Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers, designed to circulate air through the drum and out the vent. This part is responsible for the movement of hot air across the clothes to evaporate moisture so that clothes dry evenly and quickly.  

Causes of a bad Blower Wheel Assembly can include debris buildup leading to wear and tear on the fins or a damaged hub disconnecting the wheel from the motor shaft. 

Symptoms of a bad Blower Wheel Assembly include:

• Unusual noises when the dryer is running.
• Clothes taking longer to dry or not drying fully.
• The dryer overheating due to restricted airflow.
• A noticeable decrease in the exhaust.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Clamp is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This clamp ensures tight and secure connections within the dryer, particularly in securing ducts and vents that are essential for proper airflow and operation. 

Clamps may need replacement due to loss of tension, corrosion, or damage from regular use. A compromised clamp can lead to operational issues such as prolonged drying times or excessive noise, resulting from loose parts or improper ventilation.

Symptoms of a bad Clamp include:

• Loose or detached vents or hoses, leading to inefficient dryer operation.
• Increased drying times, as a result of compromised airflow from unsecured ducts.
• Unusual vibrations or noise, indicating that internal components may not be securely fastened.

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

The Thermal Fuse is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. This safety device monitors and protects heating elements inside the dryer. If temperatures rise too high due to a blockage or other issue, the fuse automatically opens the electrical circuit to cease further heating. 

Symptoms of a bad thermal fuse include:

• Dryer failing to heat or stay warm during cycles
• Fluctuating or inconsistent heat levels  
• Tripped circuit breakers after drying

Causes of failure involve wear or damage from years of high heat exposure. Over time, components become brittle and less responsive.

This OEM Whirlpool replacement is also compatible with some Kenmore, Admiral, Roper, and Estate dryer models. 

This blower seal sits between blower housing components to prevent air leaks, helping direct all exhaust air through the drum and vent. Replacing a worn seal can help restore proper airflow and drying performance. What it does:

• Forms an airtight gasket between the blower housing and its cover/duct
• Helps maintain correct airflow and temperature balance through the drum and exhaust
• Reduces lint and dust escaping into the cabinet
• Common failure symptoms: longer dry times, weak vent airflow, whistling or rattling from air leaks

• 1 blower seal

• Disconnect power and, for gas dryers, shut off gas before servicing
• Access the blower housing; remove the old seal and clean mating surfaces of lint and residue
• Position the new seal flat and even; reassemble without pinching or deforming the gasket
• After reassembly, verify strong exhaust airflow and check for leaks
