Screw: 8-16 x 3/8 inch.

A replacement 3/8-16 nut that secures fasteners and assemblies on compatible Whirlpool appliances. Restores proper fastening so panels, brackets and components stay tight and aligned during normal operation. What it does:

• Fastens and secures bolts, studs or threaded shafts in appliance assemblies.
• Prevents loose connections that can cause rattling, vibration or misalignment.
• Used where a 3/8-16 threaded nut is required for structural or mounting applications.
• Replaces missing, stripped or corroded nuts to restore reliable mechanical connection.

• Disconnect power and follow all appliance safety procedures before servicing.
• Inspect mating threads and remove debris; replace if threads are damaged.
• Thread onto bolt or stud by hand first, then snug with the correct wrench; avoid overtightening.
• Follow the appliance manufacturer's torque and assembly instructions.

This 1/4-20 bolt secures appliance panels, brackets, and components to keep assemblies stable and aligned. It's a direct-fit fastener used where a standard 1/4-20 machine screw is required. What it does:

• Fastens panels, mounting brackets, and internal components to the appliance frame
• Prevents parts from shifting, vibrating, or producing rattling noises
• Restores proper alignment for components that won't sit flush or move under load
• Replaces corroded, stripped, or missing hardware that can cause loose assemblies

• One 1/4-20 bolt

• Disconnect power to the appliance before performing any repairs
• Use the correct socket or wrench for a secure fit; avoid rounded fasteners
• Tighten snugly but avoid over-torquing to prevent thread damage or stripped holes
• Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris

This replacement control timer restores cycle sequencing and timing so the appliance advances through its selected cycles reliably. It replaces a worn or faulty timer to bring back consistent cycle control and operation. What it does

• Controls cycle timing and routes power to the appliance's functional circuits so selected cycles advance correctly.
• Advances mechanical/electrical cycle stages; a failing timer can prevent cycle changes or stop progress.
• Common symptoms: appliance won't advance through cycles, gets stuck on one cycle, or shows no response to the selector.
• Works as the main timing/control interface behind the control console—restores predictable cycle behavior when defective.

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before starting; verify power is off to avoid shock.
• Access typically requires removing the control panel or console; keep track of screws and fasteners.
• Match the replacement to the original (orientation and shaft length) before installing; secure mounting screws and reconnect connectors firmly.

This retaining ring secures a component in its groove on a shaft or housing, keeping parts aligned and in place during operation. Replace a bent, stretched, or missing ring to restore a tight hold and reduce movement or noise.

• Secures a component by seating in a groove on a shaft or inside a bore
• Maintains correct axial position so parts don't slide off during use
• Helps reduce wobble, vibration, or rattling caused by loose assemblies
• Typical symptoms: part won't stay seated, excess play or movement, scraping/rattling noises, or a visibly deformed ring

• Disconnect power; shut off water or gas if applicable. Wear eye protection and gloves
• Note ring orientation; use appropriate snap-ring/circlip pliers or picks—avoid overstretching
• Clean the groove and seat the ring fully; secure fit
• Replace any damaged spacers, washers, or seals found during service

This spring-timer knob replaces a worn, cracked or missing timer knob so you can set and adjust the appliance's mechanical timer reliably. Simple, direct replacement that restores the user control interface. What it does:

• Fits onto the appliance's mechanical timer shaft to allow setting and advancing the timer
• Restores a secure grip and pointer for accurate time selection
• Commonly used to fix loose, cracked, stripped, or missing timer knobs
• Helps resolve inability to turn or set the mechanical timer caused by a damaged knob

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Pull the old knob straight off the timer shaft; align splines and press the new knob fully onto the shaft until seated
• If the knob is tight, use a proper knob puller or gentle, even leverage to avoid damaging the shaft

This is a genuine replacement screw used to secure appliance components. It provides a simple, reliable fastener for reattaching panels, brackets, or assemblies so parts stay properly mounted and stable during operation. What it does

• Secures panels, trim, brackets or small assemblies in place
• Restores proper fastening where a missing or damaged screw causes loose parts or rattling
• Prevents movement that can lead to noise or misalignment of adjacent components
• Used wherever the original screw was removed or lost during repairs

• One replacement screw

• Use the matching screw head and thread engagement; do not force if it does not seat smoothly
• Tighten until snug—avoid overtightening to prevent stripping or cracking plastic parts
• Disconnect power before working on electrical appliances and follow basic safety precautions
• If original screw was rusted, check mating threads for damage before installing new fastener

Size: 8-32 x 1/4 inch.

This is a replacement machine screw sized 8-18 x 3/8 that secures panels and components on compatible appliances. It restores proper fastening where a worn, stripped, or missing screw causes loose parts or rattling. What it does

• Fastens control panels, trim pieces, or brackets to the appliance chassis
• Replaces stripped, corroded, or missing screws that cause loose panels or vibrating noise
• Provides correct thread engagement for a secure hold in tapped holes
• Small hardware solution often used during door, console, or interior repairs

• One 8-18 x 3/8 machine screw (quantity: 1)

• Use the correct screw size and thread; do not force a different-size fastener into tapped holes
• Hand-start the screw to avoid cross-threading, then tighten with the appropriate screwdriver
• Disconnect power before accessing internal components or panels on electrical appliances
• If metal threads are damaged, repair with a helicoil or replace the damaged component rather than over-torquing
