Description

This cable reel is the retractable cord assembly that stores and extends the appliance power cord, restoring tidy cord management and reliable cord retraction. It replaces a worn, stuck, or damaged reel to improve safe cord handling. What it does:

• Houses and retracts the appliance power cord so the cord winds neatly into the chassis
• Ensures smooth extension and retraction; stops excessive cord pull through the built-in stop
• Helps prevent exposed or tangled cords that can cause wear or snagging
• Common symptom fixes: cord won't retract, cord jams, or visible damage to the reel mechanism

What's included:

• One cable reel / retractable cord assembly

Install notes:

• Unplug the appliance or disconnect power at the breaker before starting any repair
• Requires partial disassembly of the appliance cabinet; keep fasteners and panels organized
• Route the cord and engage the reel tension carefully during reassembly to avoid overwind or slack
