Parts for Ge GTW585BSV3WS: Controls & Backsplash Parts

The GE Badge is an OEM part for GE washing machines. It is an emblem installed on the exterior of the washer that identifies the manufacturer and brand. Beyond aesthetics, the badge also demonstrates authenticity and quality assurance for the appliance.

Causes of a bad badge can include damage from impact or weathering over time, loss of adhesion to the outer casing, or fading/wear of printed graphics.  

Symptoms of a bad badge include:

• Missing or loose badge that is no longer securely attached
• Faded or illegible print that fails to display the brand
• Cracks or pieces breaking off the badge surface

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Start Capacitor is an OEM part for GE washing machines. It is comprised of a bracket and capacitor, which work together in the motor control circuit to start and run the drive motor. The capacitor provides a phase shift that allows for smoother operation of the electric motor.

Symptoms of a bad Start Capacitor include:

• The washer fails to agitate or spin clothes
• An electric burning smell coming from the motor or control board  
• The drive motor makes buzzing or humming noises during the operation

Causes of failure can be normal component degradation over time. Exposure to moisture, physical damage, or operating the machine with an unbalanced load can also stress the capacitor prematurely. 

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore models.

This left backsplash support secures the left side of a range or stove backsplash, keeping the backsplash aligned and stable for safe, reliable operation. It replaces a bent or broken support to restore proper fit and appearance. What it does:

• Holds and supports the left edge of the backsplash to prevent sagging or separation
• Restores proper alignment so control panels and trim sit flush
• Helps stop rattling or vibration caused by a damaged support
• Commonly replaced when the support is bent, cracked, or missing

• Install with the appliance unplugged and controls off; disconnect power at the breaker for electric ranges.
• Depending on model, you may need to remove the backsplash trim or rear panel to access mounting points.
• Use correct-size fasteners and verify secure attachment; avoid overtightening to prevent cracking.

This right-side backsplash support secures the range's backsplash to the cooktop, restoring proper alignment and stability so the backguard sits firmly and reduces wobble or gaps. Designed to fit the OEM mounting points. What it does

• Holds the right side of the backsplash in place so the backguard stays aligned with the cooktop
• Prevents the backsplash from leaning, rattling, or separating from the range
• Restores proper mounting after impact, wear, or missing/broken fasteners
• Works with the range's existing screws and mounting brackets to re-establish a solid fit

• One right-side backsplash support

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove the backguard or access panel per manufacturer instructions to reach mounting area
• Use basic hand tools (screwdriver/socket) to remove and replace fasteners; keep original screws if reusable
• Watch for sharp sheet-metal edges and wear safety gloves and eye protection

The Selector Knob is an OEM part for GE washing machines. It allows users to directly choose specific wash settings like temperature, spin speed, and soil level from the control panel interface.

Symptoms of a bad selector knob include:

• Knob inadvertently moves between positions during washing   
• Settings do not stay firmly engaged and jump to different options
• Illegible or faded lettering obscuring chosen temperature/settings
• Difficult, grinding, or inconsistent movement-making selection challenging  

Causes can be repeated rotational use over cycles causing wear, or loose, corroded mounting points compromising secure fitting. 

This GE OEM replacement selector knob ensures reliable cycle programming. Compatible with some Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore models as well, it maintains convenient setting adjustment. 

This jumper harness is an OEM-style electrical connector harness that restores reliable connector-to-connector wiring between components. It replaces a worn or damaged harness to help re-establish proper electrical connections and operation. What it does:

• Links two or more electrical connectors to complete a circuit between controls and components.
• Replaces damaged, frayed, or corroded wires that can cause intermittent operation or loss of power.
• Commonly used when console, control board, or component-to-component connections fail or show error symptoms.
• Helps eliminate open circuits and poor connections that trigger faults or prevent operation.

• One jumper harness as shown

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Match connector shapes and wire colors before connecting; do not force connectors together.
• Route and secure the harness away from moving parts and heat sources; use existing clips or ties.
