Illuminates the dryer drum for better visibility when loading and unloading. Replace when bulb burns out or fails to light. Confirm fit with your model.
Originally the dryer was squeaking a lot, so I purchased a new belt tensioner, but the original tensioner was an old-style no wheel tensioner, so that wasn't the source of the squeaking. I saw a lot of lint had built up inside the unit where there shouldn't have been that much. So I viewed a few videos on the Appliance Pros site and saw that the rear wheel guides were the cause of the squeaking and the rear felt drum and blower housing seal needed to be replaced. The rear blower housing was... Read more
Dryer not heating? This high limit thermostat cuts power when temps exceed safe levels. Common fix for no heat issues. Simple DIY install in 5-10 minutes.
Replaced the thermostat and fuse it could have been either of them that was causing the issue - and now it works like a charm. Read more
This electronic module controls the water and ice dispenser functions on the refrigerator door. It processes input from the dispenser switches and manages the operation of the water valve and ice chute door. Replace this module if the dispenser is unresponsive, only partially works, or behaves erratically when pressing the dispenser lever.
Unfortunately, this part isn't sold separately, but the plastic that is attached to the metal spring that allows the actuator to disengage broke and I had to physically pull the "paddle" part back up for the water to stop coming out. Easy removal with a square bit screwdriver. First, take off the trim piece underneath the LCD display (screws are underneath), then take out the screws for the LCD display and pull down and out, then unplug the wires. Then take the screws out of the actual part... Read more
Freezer cold but fridge warm? This evaporator fan motor circulates air over coils to cool both compartments. DIY-friendly 30-minute repair with video guide.
Fan motor went bad. Fixed the fridge for less than it would have cost me just to have someone come out and look at it. Read more
Supports the dryer drum for smooth rotation. Replace if your dryer squeals, makes grinding noises, or the drum sags. Verify fit with your model number.
The dryer is a Kenmore Laundry Center, model 417-99570150. Bought in 1998, so it is an older model. Not wanting to buy the newer ones that are out now. We opted to fix the Kenmore. Just believe the older models are worth fixing, if at all possible. Frist we had to figure out what parts we would need and if the cost would be worth our time. I went on YouTube: and type in Kenmore dryer not turning on. Watched several videos to narrow down the possible problem. Next step was to... Read more
Dryer won't start or shuts off unexpectedly? A failed thermal limiter is often the cause. This safety fuse prevents overheating. DIY repair in 30-45 minutes.
Recommendations have fun and a bucket to prevent losing parts. First watch the videos, practice disassemble and reassemble the dryer drum. Make certain you have a good screw driver and spatula from kitchen (could not find my putty knife). Secondly, clean and inspect everything, make sure the motor bearing and belt pulleys are in good condition with little or no play. Third after you have confidently disassembled, vacuum cleaned, inspected all the worn parts, grease the motor and pulley,... Read more

This is a foam seal that fits around the dryer's blower housing or lint chute area, creating an airtight connection to prevent air leaks. It helps maintain proper airflow through the dryer's exhaust system for efficient drying. Replace this seal if you notice longer drying times, warm air escaping from areas other than the vent, or if the existing seal is crumbling, compressed, or deteriorated.
Our 19 year old Whirlpool dryer quit heating. After checking the thermal fuse, I found the ignitor electrically open. I bought an ignitor at a local store as there was a national holiday the next day and I did not want the dryer inoperative waiting several days for shipping. I can say AppliancePartsPros is MUCH cheaper for the identical Whirlpool genuine part. While changing the ignitor, I noticed there was an excessive amount of lint in the dryer, which was caused by worn drum seals. I ordered... Read more
Fix a washer that won't agitate or clean clothes properly. This agitator replacement restores wash action. Moderate DIY repair, requires removing bolt.
I had to cut the old agitator out with an oscillating saw in order to access the agitator drive. This is the second Maytag (MVWC 565) I have had to do this to. I first tried removing it by sliding straps under the agitator then then using a jack to pull it loose which did not work either time. One suggestion I have would be to remove debris from tub as you cut in order to prevent it from dropping from the inner tub into the outer tub. Read more

Seals the blower housing to prevent air leaks that reduce drying efficiency. Replace if worn, cracked, or missing to restore optimal airflow.
First I watched videos about squeaking Kenmore dryers. Then I used that information to open the dryer, diagnosing the fact that the roller on the drum belt tension arm had broken and actually fallen off the arm. The dryer was filled with lint and dust/dirt, so I also saw that the seals on the dryer had deteriorated greatly. AppliancePartsPros website is outstanding, far better than its competitors. This made it easy to find the parts and videos that I needed. It took hours to pull everything... Read more

This electronic control board manages oven functions including temperature regulation, cooking modes, and the clock display on your range. It mounts behind the control panel and communicates with the oven's sensors and heating elements. Replace this board if the oven does not heat to the correct temperature, displays error codes, has a blank or malfunctioning display, or if the controls become unresponsive.
I first felt along each heating element (bake and broil) hoping to find a rough or blistered place on them. But they were both smooth with no irregular places. (replacing the elements would have been the easiest and cheapest repair. Pulled the back off the range (unplugged, of course) - checked wiring. There were no loose connections or burned wiring. I disconnected the elements and checked them with a ohmmeter (VOM) and both had continuity. Discovered that both elements used the same... Read more
Rear support clip that holds the crisper cover shelf in place. Replace when broken, snapped, or cracked to restore stability to your crisper drawer area.
If you can't pull out the displacement pins on the crisper cover support clips that allow the wall to carry the weight of the cover, slides and drawer, you may need to push those pins in (they fall down the wall) to remove the clip. During the replacement of both front clips, I had one I could remove and one I had attempted to drill a tiny hole in to be able to pull the pin. Ultimately it did not work and needed to be simply pushed in. Do not worry, there is nothing below which the plastic... Read more
Dishes still wet after cycle or water not heating? The heating element heats water for cleaning and promotes drying. DIY repair in under 30 minutes.
My very handy husband replaced the part and now I have a working dishwasher again. Thank goodness we were able to find the part-otherwise we would have been out of pocket for a lot more cash! Read more
