Parts for Kenmore 796.71523210 (79671523210, 796 71523210): Control Panel And Plate Assembly Parts

This washer tub assembly is the stationary outer tub that surrounds the spin basket and contains the wash water. Replacing a cracked or damaged tub helps stop leaks and restores proper clearance for smooth, quiet washing and spinning.

• Creates a watertight chamber around the basket to hold wash and rinse water
• Maintains proper basket clearance; damage can cause rubbing or scraping sounds
• Provides connection points for hoses and water-level components
• Common signs it may be needed: leaks from the tub area, visible cracks or warping, persistent out-of-balance/spin errors, or internal scraping/grinding noises

• Disconnect power and water; shut off supplies and safely drain remaining water
• This is a major repair—allow time and consider a second person to help lift/support the tub
• Transfer model-specific parts from the original tub to the new tub as needed; reinstall all clamps, bolts, and sensors securely
• After reassembly, level the washer, and run a test cycle to check for leaks

This upper plate clip secures the control panel assembly to the top of the dryer cabinet, keeping it properly aligned and firmly in place. It is a small but important mounting component that prevents the control panel from shifting or becoming loose during operation. Replace if the clip is broken or missing and the control panel feels wobbly, does not sit flush, or has become detached.

This outer cabinet frame provides the structural front support and finished edge for the appliance, restoring proper fit and appearance. Replaces damaged, cracked, or warped frames to help align panels and cover internal components. What it does:

• Restores the appliance's front structural support and trim
• Covers and protects internal components from debris and tampering
• Helps correct panel alignment and reduces gaps or rattling
• Improves cosmetic appearance by replacing cracked or dented framing

• One outer cabinet frame/body

• Disconnect power and water before starting any repair
• Handle carefully — edges may be sharp and mounting tabs can be fragile
• Basic hand tools (screwdriver, nut driver) are typically required

Replace your dryer's door hinge if cracked, broken, or worn. This structural component secures the door to the cabinet for proper opening and closing.
