Customer Questions and Answers for Retaining Ring by Whirlpool

Johnny, if you also replaced the 6-2095720 Mounting Stem Repair Kit, you won't need the WPY015667 retaining ring, or the WPY015666 Washer, Retaining(cent). The replacement part has been revised and redesigned and the washer and clip are no longer needed or used. If not, and you have the "original" mounting stem kit, you will need to install the center seal/agitator seal (small end down) into the mounting stem, then place the washer on top of the seal, carefully press down on the washer and seal until the washer is past the preformed groove inside the top of the mounting stem, then place the retainer clip into the groove(a small flat blade screwdriver will be helpful to seat the clip into the groove). Start at the top of the clip insert it first, then work the remainder one side at a time, and make sure the clip "seats" into the groove. Thanks,
