Kenmore / Sears Microwave Screws, Nuts, Washers

The Common Nut is an OEM part for LG ranges. It secures the fan blade to the motor shaft. This nut maintains the fan's stability and preventing it from becoming dislodged during use.

Causes of a bad common nut can include loosening over time due to vibration, improper installation, or damage from impact or mishandling.

Symptoms of a bad common nut include:

• Excessive noise or vibration from the fan assembly
• The fan blade becoming loose or detached, causing poor air circulation
• Potential risk of the fan blade becoming a projectile if completely detached

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.a
