Parts for Bosch WTVC533CUS/09: Drum Parts

The Bearing is an OEM part for Bosch dryers. It is a component located within the drum assembly that works to smoothly rotate the drying tumbler during the cycle.                                                         

Symptoms of a bad bearing include:                                                        

• Loud grinding or scraping noises coming from the dryer drum area                                                        
• The dryer drum fails to rotate or gets stuck during the operation                                                
• Vibrations felt in the dryer cabinet or presenting during the operation

Over time, the constant rotation of the dryer drum can cause wear and tear on the bearings. Accidental damage during maintenance or cleaning is also possible. If any of the above issues occur, it may be time to replace this bearing.                                                        

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore models.
 

The Screw is an OEM part for Bosch microwave ovens. It is a component that secures the outer casing and front paneling of the microwave. The screw is designed to withstand repeated heating and cooling cycles without loosening or degrading. 

Symptoms of bad screw include:

- The front panel or outer casing becoming loose, detached, or misaligned
- Gaps appearing in the seams or joints of the microwave structure
- The door not sealing properly leading to leaks

Over many uses of the microwave, screws can wear down or strip out from over-tightening during repairs or installations. It is important to replace worn screws to ensure the microwave maintains an intact structure.

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore models.
 

This flat washer secures fasteners and helps distribute clamping force to protect parts from pull-through and wear. It's a small but critical hardware piece that helps maintain proper alignment and reduce vibration in the appliance. What it does:

• Sits under a nut or bolt to evenly spread load and prevent surface damage
• Helps keep fasteners tightened and reduces loosening from vibration
• Protects mating surfaces from wear and deformation
• Can reduce rattling or vibration-related noise when used as intended

• Disconnect power and water before accessing internal components
• Replace like-for-like; do not force or modify the washer to fit
• If other hardware is corroded or damaged, replace affected fasteners as a set

This sealing strip replaces a worn or damaged door edge seal to help maintain a tight closure and reduce leaks, drafts, and odors. It restores proper sealing where the door meets the cabinet or frame. What it does:

• Provides a consistent seal along the door edge to help prevent water or air leaks
• Helps limit odors and moisture transfer from the appliance compartment
• Reduces rattling or wind noise caused by a compromised door seal
• Restores smooth door closure and alignment where the strip seats

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting work
• Remove the old strip carefully to avoid damaging the door or frame
• Align the new strip with the door edge and press into the channel or mounting surface per OEM guidance
• Trim excess only if specified by the manufacturer; check for a secure, continuous seal after installation

The Filter-Fluff is an OEM part for Bosch dryers. It plays a role in efficiently drying clothes by filtering lint and keeping airways clear.

Causes of a bad dryer filter-fluff include blockage from accumulation of lint over time or physical damage.

Symptoms of a bad filter-fluff include:

• Slow or inefficient drying times
• Excessive moisture remaining in clothes after cycles
• Rattling or vibrating noises from the dryer

This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.

The Seal-Door is an OEM component specifically designed for Bosch dryers requiring a closed-front contour. It forms a protective barrier during drying operations.  

Durable flexible materials surround the opening without collecting lint buildup. Tight compression around edges maximizes contained airflow for improved efficiency.

Causes for needed replacement typically relate to stress cracks or splits rendering the seal incapable of maintaining a closed barrier. Protrusions or punctures also allow lint leakage compromising function.

Symptoms signaling a bad seal-door include: 

• Stray fibers escaping around the unfinished boundary 
• The ability for air to pass unobstructed when the door is shut
• Crinkled, cracked, or severely misshapen sealing profiles no longer form a tight perimeter

This OEM Bosch replacement part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore dryers relying on contained airflow for effective user-designated cycles. Reinstallation ensures a solid air-tight front face.
 

The Wheel is an OEM part for Bosch clothes dryers. It is an essential component that works with the drum to tumble clothes, facilitating effective drying action during cycles.

Wheels can cause shorts and come loose over time from heavy drum usage, leading to:

• Vibrating, shaking noises 
• Difficulty spinning the dryer drum by hand
• Stretching or pilling of clothes  
• Unerwven drying performance

Causes of a faulty wheel tend to be wear and tear over time from carrying heavy loads inside a spinning drum. Foreign objects inside the drum can also potentially cause damage.

It is also compatible with some Thermador, Gaggenau, and Kenmore dryer models.

This door switch is the electrical interlock that senses the door position and allows the appliance to run only when the door is closed. It restores normal door sensing to prevent unexpected operation and enable cycles to start. What it does

• Detects whether the door is closed and completes the circuit so the appliance can start or continue a cycle.
• Prevents operation when the door is open, improving safety and preventing leaks or heat loss.
• Common symptom: appliance will not start, stops mid-cycle, or shows door-related fault codes when the switch fails.
• Replaces a worn or unreliable door sensing component that causes intermittent starts or shutdowns.

• One door switch

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off circuit breaker) before attempting replacement to avoid shock.
• Handle connectors and wiring gently; verify connector orientation before reassembly.
• Reassemble panels and test door operation and a short cycle to confirm correct function.

This replacement socket connects and secures a light bulb or wiring harness inside the appliance so the light operates reliably and wiring stays stable. It restores a safe electrical connection for oven, range, or appliance lighting. What it does:

• Holds and powers the appliance light bulb or connects a small wiring harness
• Restores steady lighting when a cracked, burnt, or loose socket causes flickering or no light
• Provides a secure contact to prevent intermittent electrical connection
• Helps eliminate arcing or poor contact that can cause visible sparking or failure to light

• One replacement socket

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock
• Use gloves and allow bulbs and surrounding parts to cool before handling
• Inspect wiring and connectors for damage; replace if insulation or contacts are compromised
