Parts for Maytag JDS9860CDS01: 05 - Chassis Parts

This spacer secures and maintains proper spacing between adjacent appliance components to prevent rubbing and misalignment, helping restore smooth, stable operation after wear or replacement. What it does:

• Positions and cushions parts to prevent metal-on-metal contact and reduce noise or vibration
• Keeps components aligned for proper fit and function after panel or assembly reinstallation
• Helps maintain clearance for moving parts to avoid abrasion and premature wear
• Useful when replacing worn fasteners, clips, or assemblies that rely on precise spacing

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off circuit breaker) before beginning any repair
• Handle small parts carefully and retain any associated fasteners; compare new part to old for orientation
• Use basic hand tools as required; avoid forcing parts into place to prevent damage

The light switch assembly controls power to the appliance light circuit. Replace a worn or faulty switch to restore reliable on/off operation when your lamp won't turn on, won't turn off, or works intermittently. What it does:

• Opens and closes electrical contacts to supply or cut power to the light
• Controls cavity or task lights as designed for the specific model
• Typical symptoms: light won't turn on, won't turn off, or flickers/intermittently works
• Physical signs of failure: stuck/loose actuator or no continuity when tested

• 1 light switch assembly

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before service
• Access location varies by model; remove necessary panels/trim to reach the switch
• Note wire positions and transfer them one at a time to the new switch; secure the mounting
• Restore power and test light operation before final reassembly

The Whirlpool screw is an OEM replacement part responsible for securing various components or parts on different types of Whirlpool appliances. The screw is designed to provide a secure and reliable fastening connection, ensuring that different parts of the appliance stay in place. It is commonly used in different locations within the appliance, such as the cabinet, panels, or other structural elements.

This part fixes the following symptoms:

• Loose or wobbly components within the appliance
• Panels or parts that are not securely attached
• Rattling or unusual noises due to loose parts
• Damaged or missing screw

The Whirlpool screw can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

Color: dark brown. Its total length is about 21 inches.

The broil element is the oven's upper heating element that delivers direct radiant heat for broiling and finishing foods. Replacing a failed element restores consistent top-side browning and proper broil performance.

• Provides high, direct heat from the top of the oven during the Broil cycle
• Restores broil function when the original element is open or damaged
• Common symptoms: no heat on Broil, weak/uneven top browning, element won't glow, visible breaks or blistering
• Matches the original design for proper fit and heat output on applicable models

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the range; allow the oven to cool completely
• Remove oven racks to access the element
• Take out the element's mounting screws, gently pull the element forward, and transfer the wires one at a time to the new element
• Ensure terminals are fully seated and mounting screws are snug; restore power and test Broil

The Oven Temperature Sensor Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This sensor is essential for monitoring the oven's internal temperature, ensuring that it reaches and maintains the correct temperature for baking and cooking. The sensor is approximately 7 inches long.

Over time, the oven temperature sensor can fail due to repeated heating and cooling cycles, exposure to spills or grease, or electrical issues. When the sensor malfunctions, it can result in inaccurate temperature readings, affecting cooking performance and food quality.

Symptoms of a bad oven temperature sensor include:

• The oven not reaching the set temperature
• Food cooking unevenly or not fully
• The oven overheating or underheating
• Error codes related to temperature issues

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Color: Black. For biscuit order 98008169. For white order WP98008544.

A shoulder screw that secures appliance components and provides a precise pivot or spacer point. Replaces a missing or worn screw to restore alignment, reduce rattling, and keep panels and assemblies securely in place. What it does:

• Provides a fixed-diameter shoulder for pivots, spacers, or mounting points in assemblies.
• Holds panels and moving components at the correct distance to prevent binding or friction.
• A missing or worn shoulder screw can cause misalignment, rattling, or loose parts during operation.
• Used where a smooth-bearing surface and controlled clearance are required between parts.

• Disconnect power to the appliance (unplug or shut off breaker) before servicing.
• Handle small fasteners carefully to avoid dropping into assemblies; magnetic pickup tools can help.
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly but avoid overtightening.

The Oven Bake Element is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. It is responsible for providing the heat required for baking by generating radiant heat at the bottom of the oven cavity. This element ensures that the oven reaches and maintains the desired baking temperature, contributing to consistent and even cooking results.

Causes of a bad bake element can include regular wear and tear, overheating, or physical damage such as cracks or breaks in the element itself. A malfunctioning bake element can lead to uneven cooking and longer preheat times.

Symptoms of a bad oven bake element include:

• Oven not heating or taking a long time to preheat
• Uneven baking results
• Visible damage or burning on the element
• The element not glowing red when in use

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

• Secures internal components to the cabinet or frame to prevent sagging or vibration
• Restores proper alignment for doors, panels, or assemblies that rely on fixed supports
• Helps reduce rattling or noise caused by loose or damaged supports
• Reinforces the original mounting point to ensure parts remain in position during use

• One support mounting bracket
