Parts for Kenmore 253.66091 (25366091, 253 66091): Air Handling System Parts

This rubber grommet cushions and secures appliance panels or components to reduce vibration and wear. It helps restore stable mounting and quiet operation when a worn grommet causes movement or noise. What it does:

• Cushions and isolates panels or components to reduce vibration-related noise
• Holds wires, hoses or panels in place at a mounting hole or pass-through
• Prevents metal-to-metal contact and protects openings from abrasion
• Commonly used when you notice rattling, loose panels or chafed wiring at an access hole

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before servicing the appliance
• Remove the outer panel or access cover to reach the grommet mounting location
• Press the grommet into the mounting hole until fully seated; trim or replace adjacent fasteners as needed
• Replace any damaged clips or retainers and test appliance operation after reassembly

Hex flange nut with 10-32 thread secures components in appliances. Replace if stripped, missing, or damaged. Flange provides broader bearing surface.
