Parts for Dacor IWD27: Chassis Parts

This service bushing protects and cushions appliance wiring where it passes through metal panels, helping prevent chafing and shorts. It's a simple replacement that restores proper routing and insulation for harness wires. What it does:

• Cushions wiring at panel openings to reduce abrasion and wear
• Keeps wiring properly routed to prevent pinching or intermittent connections
• Helps stop rattling or vibration where wires contact metal edges
• Addresses symptoms like exposed or frayed insulation, burning smell, or intermittent power related to damaged panel wiring

• One service bushing

• Disconnect power before starting any repair
• Remove the access panel or trim to reach the damaged bushing location
• Press the bushing into the panel hole until fully seated; replace wiring through the bushing as routed originally
• Inspect surrounding wiring and replace any frayed or heat-damaged sections; reassemble panels securely

This wafer-head Phillips screw (#8 x 3/8 in) is a factory fastener used to secure panels, brackets, and covers in compatible appliances. Replace a missing or damaged screw to restore a tight, properly aligned fit. What it does:

• Secures sheet-metal or plastic components to the appliance chassis or subassemblies
• Helps maintain proper alignment and reduce vibration or rattling
• Replaces lost, stripped, or corroded screws of the same size and type
• Used at panel, bracket, and cover mounting points designed for this fastener

• One wafer-head Phillips screw (#8 x 3/8 in)

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before servicing
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; use a #2 Phillips driver
• Do not overtighten, especially into plastic or thin sheet metal
• Replace only with the same size/type fastener removed to ensure proper fit

This replacement service thermistor monitors internal temperature and helps the appliance regulate heat for proper cycle performance. Restores accurate temperature sensing to maintain drying/washing efficiency and prevent overheating. What it does:

• Measures internal temperature and sends readings to the control board for proper cycle control
• Helps the unit reach and maintain correct heat levels during operation
• Can cause heat-related error codes, long/no-heat cycles, or poor drying/washing if faulty
• Works as a direct-sensing component—faulty readings can trigger shutdowns or incorrect cycle behavior

• One service thermistor (temperature sensor)

• Disconnect power before starting any repair to avoid electrical shock
• Handle the sensor and lead wires gently; avoid sharp bends or pinching the harness
• Verify connector seating and routing match the original during installation
• Test sensor resistance with a multimeter per OEM procedure
