Parts for Maytag DM46H-14B-R: 02 - Control Panel Parts

The Screw is an OEM part for Whirlpool appliances. This specific screw is used in various locations within Whirlpool appliances, securing components and ensuring the stability and proper alignment of parts. It is designed to fit precisely and maintain a firm hold, contributing to the overall functionality and safety of the appliance.

Over time, screws can become worn or stripped due to regular use, corrosion, or over-tightening. 

Causes of a bad screw include wear and tear, exposure to moisture leading to rust, and over-tightening which can strip the threads.

Symptoms of a bad screw include:

• Loose or wobbly components
• Misalignment of parts
• Noise due to vibrating or loose parts
• Difficulty in securing or removing the screw

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

This 15 amp, 250 volt replacement fuse protects your appliance's electrical circuits by interrupting power when a fault or overload occurs. It restores safe operation once the underlying issue is fixed and the fuse is replaced. What it does:

• Replacing a blown fuse can resolve intermittent power loss or complete power failure tied to a single blown element

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the fuse
• Replace only with a fuse of the same amperage and voltage rating to maintain safety and proper protection
• Use insulated tools and avoid touching live terminals; internal access may require disassembly, follow OEM service instructions
