Parts for Thermador VTR1000Q: 03 - Model Vtn1000q Parts

This shipping bracket secures internal components during transport to prevent movement and damage. It's a simple metal bracket used during shipping and handling to keep parts and panels stable until final installation. What it does:

• Holds internal components or panels in place during shipment to reduce transit damage
• Prevents rattles, misalignment, and pressure on sensitive parts while moving the appliance
• Helps ensure the appliance arrives in serviceable condition and is ready for final setup
• Intended for use only during transport or initial delivery; remove or install per service instructions

• Install or remove only following the appliance's service manual or installation guide
• Retain all original fasteners; replace any damaged hardware with OEM parts
• Do not modify the bracket; improper installation can cause damage or void service procedures

This blower wheel spins counterclockwise to move air through the appliance, restoring proper airflow for drying or cooling functions. It replaces a worn or damaged wheel to reduce noise and improve performance. What it does:

• Spins to circulate air for drying, cooling, or venting
• Restores proper airflow when a cracked or warped wheel reduces performance
• Helps stop rubbing or scraping noises caused by a damaged wheel
• Prevents motor strain from an imbalanced or broken impeller

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Inspect the blower housing and shaft for debris or damage before installing
• Ensure the wheel is seated and oriented for CCW rotation; do not force or hammer into place

A locknut that secures threaded shafts and fasteners in appliances to resist loosening from vibration and maintain stable component alignment. Replacing a damaged or stripped locknut restores a secure fastening and reduces rattling or movement. What it does:

• Keeps nuts and components locked on threaded shafts to prevent backing off under vibration.
• Commonly used where a retained fastener is required on motors, pumps, or moving assemblies.
• Replace if you notice loose parts, persistent rattling, or visible thread damage.
• Restores proper fastening to help prevent premature wear or component misalignment.

• Disconnect power (and water/gas if applicable) before servicing the appliance.
• Use the correct size socket or wrench and hold the mating component to avoid over-torquing.
• Inspect mating threads and replace any damaged hardware to ensure a secure fit.

A protective terminal boot that slips over a capacitor connection to shield it from moisture, dirt and accidental contact, helping reduce risk of shorts and maintain a reliable electrical connection. What it does:

• Covers the capacitor terminal to reduce the chance of accidental contact and arcing.
• Protects the terminal from moisture, dust and debris that can compromise electrical connections.
• Helps prevent corrosion and keeps the terminal area cleaner for more reliable operation.
• Signs it may be needed: cracked, torn or missing boot; visible arcing or burn marks near the capacitor; intermittent electrical behavior that points to a compromised connection.

• Always disconnect power and unplug the appliance before working on electrical components.
• Discharge the capacitor per OEM instructions before touching terminals to avoid shock.
• Push the boot fully onto the terminal for a snug fit; ensure no wiring is pinched or under strain.

This TH capacitor is an electrical control-circuit capacitor used on compatible Bosch appliances to help stabilize voltage and filter electrical noise for reliable control-board operation. Replacing a failed capacitor can address intermittent control issues. What it does

• Stabilizes control-board voltage and helps filter electrical noise that can cause erratic behavior.
• Supports reliable startup and operation of control circuits.
• Common symptom link: intermittent or unexplained control-board errors, erratic or non-responsive controls.
• Common symptom link: appliance displays control or error codes related to electronics or intermittently fails to start.

• Disconnect power to the appliance at the breaker before servicing to avoid shock.
• Discharge any capacitors and allow boards to sit before touching components; use appropriate ESD precautions.
• Only replace with the exact part number; confirm orientation and connector fit before reassembly.
