The thermostat bulb clip is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool drop-in electric ranges, securely fastening the thermostat sensor bulb. This clip features corrosion-resistant spring coils and precision tips.  

Symptoms of a bad thermostat bulb clip include:  

• Dangling thermostat bulb
• Temperatures inside oven might be incorrect because sensor bulb is not mounted correctly.

Causes of failure involve metal fatigue weakening the thermostat bulb clip over years of expansion and contraction during heating, worn surfaces losing grip, or damaged barbs failing to anchor the thermostat bulb.

This spring clip is a small metal retainer used to secure wiring or small components in place, preventing movement and accidental disconnection. It helps maintain reliable electrical and mechanical connections inside the appliance. What it does:

• Holds wiring harnesses or small terminals securely to reduce chafing and intermittent connections
• Keeps connectors and small components from shifting during operation or transport
• Helps prevent wire strain that can cause shorts or loss of function
• Commonly replaced when clip is bent, broken, or missing and wiring becomes loose

• One spring clip

• Turn off power to the appliance at the breaker before inspecting or replacing
• Use needle-nose pliers to compress and seat the clip; avoid forcing or over-bending
• Verify the clip secures the intended wire or terminal without pinching insulation
• If wiring shows damage, replace the wiring/harness per OEM guidance rather than relying on the clip alone

This cable clamp secures a wiring harness to the appliance frame to prevent chafing and strain on electrical connections. It helps keep wires routed neatly and reduces the risk of abrasion-related faults. What it does:

• Holds wiring harnesses in place to prevent rubbing against sharp edges or moving parts
• Reduces strain on terminal connections and wire leads
• Helps prevent intermittent electrical problems caused by loose or misrouted wires
• Keeps routing tidy for safer, cleaner internal layouts

• One cable clamp

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Replace with the same clamp type and orientation as the original; secure without over-tightening
• Route wires so insulation is not pinched; verify clearance from moving parts
• If you see damaged insulation or frayed wires, repair those issues before reassembly
