Description

This cover plate assembly replaces the control panel trim to protect internal controls and restore the appliance's appearance. It provides a finished surface that helps prevent debris and moisture from reaching switches and circuitry. What it does:

• Covers and shields the control area, protecting switches, buttons and wiring from spills and dust
• Restores the appliance's finished look when the original trim is cracked, warped or missing
• Helps maintain proper alignment of control components and button access
• Can reduce the chance of accidental contact with internal components

What's included: One cover plate assembly. Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any service.
• Installation generally requires removing the control panel trim screws and lifting the old plate out; retain fasteners for reuse.
• Handle edges carefully to avoid cuts and protect painted surfaces from scratches.
• Refer to the appliance's service manual or OEM instructions for model-specific steps.
