Parts for Frigidaire PCWD3080AFA: Control Panel Parts

This potentiometer is the rotary control that lets you change a setting (temperature, speed or power level) on compatible Frigidaire appliances, restoring accurate, adjustable control at the user interface. What it does:

• Converts user knob position into an adjustable electrical signal for the appliance control
• Restores smooth, incremental control when original knob response is erratic or unresponsive
• Common symptoms it can fix: knob has no effect, settings jump or skip, intermittent control or no change in output
• Used wherever a variable control input is required on the interface board or control panel

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work
• Access usually requires removing the control panel or console; retain all screws and fasteners
• Align shaft and knob properly when reinstalling to ensure correct calibration and range

This terminal block provides the appliance's main wiring connection point, securely joining the incoming power leads to the unit's internal wiring for reliable electrical contact. It restores a solid, safe power feed when the original connector is damaged or worn. What it does

• Holds and secures incoming power conductors to the appliance wiring harness
• Provides firm electrical contact to prevent intermittent power or arcing
• Commonly replaced for loose, melted, or burned terminals or after a short or power-fault
• Helps restore normal power delivery when appliance will not power on due to a failed connection

• One terminal block assembly

• Always disconnect house power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Match wire positions to the appliance wiring diagram and tighten terminals firmly
• Inspect surrounding wiring and strain relief for heat or damage; replace any compromised components

This harness assembly is the factory-style wiring harness that routes power and signals between the appliance's controls and components, restoring reliable electrical connections and correct component communication. What it does:

• Provides the main bundled wiring to connect control board, switches, sensors, and motors
• Replaces damaged, chaffed, or corroded wiring that can cause intermittent operation
• Helps resolve symptoms like controls not responding, intermittent power to components, or components that run only sporadically
• Maintains correct connector fit and routing to prevent shorting or pinching

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before starting any repair
• Compare harness connectors and routing to the original to ensure correct replacement
• Handle connectors and terminals carefully; avoid pulling on wires
• Secure harness with existing clips/fasteners and verify no wires contact hot or moving parts; test appliance after reassembly

This hex flange nut secures components where a broader bearing surface is needed to resist loosening and distribute load. It fits 10-32 threaded studs and is used on fastened assemblies in appliances. What it does:

• Provides a secure threaded connection for 10-32 screws and studs
• Flange spreads clamping force to reduce panel or bracket damage
• Hex shape allows tightening with a wrench for a reliable hold
• Commonly replaces worn or missing nuts that cause loose panels or rattling

• One hex flange nut

• Use the correct 10-32 screw or stud and hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten with an appropriately sized wrench; do not overtighten to prevent thread or part damage
• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety instructions before servicing
• Replace only like-for-like; confirm size and thread match your application

This factory screw secures components in your appliance, restoring a tight, rattle-free fit. Replace missing or damaged hardware to keep panels, brackets, and trim properly fastened and aligned for safe, reliable operation.

• Secures panels, brackets, trim, or internal components to the chassis
• Replaces lost, rusty, stripped, or cross-threaded screws
• Helps eliminate looseness, gaps, and vibration/rattling
• Common signs: loose/misaligned panels or trim, rattling noises, missing or rounded screw heads

• Disconnect power (and shut off gas if applicable); allow the unit to cool completely
• Match to the original location and replace one at a time to maintain alignment
• Hand-start to prevent cross-threading; tighten snugly—do not overtighten
• Use light torque when threading into plastic or thin sheet metal
