Admiral Dryer Bracket & Flange

This rear panel support is the structural bracket that secures the appliance's rear cover/backguard in place. Replacing a worn or broken support restores proper alignment, helps protect internal components, and reduces vibration noise.

• Secures the rear panel/backguard to the chassis for stable, proper fit
• Maintains alignment of panels and mounting points
• Helps minimize vibration, flexing, and rattles from a loose rear panel
• Common signs of failure: cracked or missing bracket, stripped mounting points, panel movement or buzzing

• Disconnect power at the breaker; shut off gas supply
• Pull the appliance forward carefully to access the back; protect flooring
• Remove fasteners, replace the damaged support, and reuse original hardware/clips
• Keep wiring clear of sharp edges; tighten screws evenly without over-torquing and check for vibration before repositioning

This bracket strike secures the door latch strike to the appliance frame, restoring reliable door closing and sealing. Replacing a damaged or bent bracket helps prevent doors from popping open or failing to latch properly. What it does:

• Secures the door strike so the latch can engage and hold the door closed.
• Restores correct door alignment when a worn or broken bracket causes improper latching.
• Addresses symptoms such as a door that won't latch, pops open, or sits unevenly.
• Provides a direct-fit structural replacement for the original mounting point.

• Disconnect power (and water, if applicable) before beginning any service.
• Access the bracket by removing the door trim or inner panel as required; keep original fasteners.
• Align the strike with the latch, secure with appropriate screws, and test door operation before reassembly.
