Kenmore / Sears Washer Insulation, Sound Dampening Parts

The Suspension Pad Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool washers. It is a kit that includes 3 suspension pads designed to provide stability and reduce vibration during the washer's operation. These pads are designed to absorb shocks and prevent excessive movement.

You should replace the suspension pad kit if the pads become worn out or damaged. Causes of bad suspension pads can include regular wear and tear, overloading the washer, or continuous exposure to high levels of vibration and movement.

Symptoms of bad suspension pads include:

• Excessive shaking or vibrating during the wash or spin cycles
• Loud banging noises coming from the washer
• The washer moving or "walking" during operation
• Uneven or unbalanced loads despite proper loading

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This absorber is the factory-design replacement part that restores the appliance's intended absorption function, helping maintain normal operation and reduce related performance issues. What it does:

• Absorbs and manages moisture/condensate or trapped vapors in the appliance's system to support normal function.
• Helps prevent symptoms commonly linked to a failed absorber, such as excess moisture, unusual odors, or intermittent system cycling.
• Restores the original fit and function when the installed absorber is cracked, broken, or heavily degraded.
• Matches OEM shape and connection points for a direct replacement.

• One absorber replacement as shown

• High-level replacement: access the absorber location; no specialized calibration typically required.
• Disconnect power (and water supply if applicable) before removing panels or replacing parts.
• Handle carefully to avoid damage to surrounding components and wiring; use manufacturer-recommended fasteners.

This vibration dampener cushions and isolates vibrating components to reduce noise and movement, helping your appliance run more quietly and smoothly. It's a simple replacement that restores proper mounting and stability. What it does:

• Absorbs vibration from compressors or motors to cut down on rattling and buzzing
• Keeps mounted components aligned and prevents metal-to-metal contact
• Helps reduce transfer of vibration into the cabinet and surrounding surfaces
• Commonly replaced when excessive noise, shaking, or loose mounts are present

• One vibration dampener

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Support the component (compressor/motor) before removing mounts to avoid shifting
• Typically press-fit or bolted into place; use basic hand tools as required
• Replace any damaged fasteners and secure mounting before restoring power

This dampener regulates airflow inside the refrigerator to help steady temperatures between compartments and reduce temperature swings. It replaces a worn or broken air control piece to restore proper circulation and consistent cooling. What it does:

• Controls airflow between fridge compartments to help maintain even temperatures
• Helps reduce warm or cold spots caused by stuck or broken dampeners
• Minimizes rapid temperature changes when doors open and close
• Operates quietly as part of the internal air distribution system

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Basic hand tools may be required; handle plastic parts carefully to avoid breakage
• Verify correct orientation and secure mounting for proper airflow operation

This sound absorber is an OEM-style insulation pad designed to reduce washer cabinet noise and rattling for a quieter cycle. It mounts inside the appliance cabinet to help dampen vibration and airborne sound. What it does:

• Dampens vibration and reduces cabinet noise during spin and agitation
• Helps minimize rattling from internal components for a quieter operation
• Supports stable operation by providing a cushioned barrier between parts and the cabinet
• Commonly replaced when padding is torn, missing, or compressed

• One sound absorber insulation pad

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair
• Access may require removing outer cabinet or panels; follow your model's service manual
• Use proper fasteners and placement as shown in OEM diagram; avoid altering material

This cushion is a small mounting pad that helps reduce vibration and cushions contact between moving or mating parts, improving fit and reducing noise. Use it to replace worn or missing cushions that allow rubbing, rattling, or uneven contact. What it does:

• Pads and isolates components to cut down on vibration and noise
• Prevents direct hard contact that can cause wear or chafing
• Helps maintain proper alignment between parts that bear weight or move
• Commonly used where a soft stop or spacer is needed to prevent rattling

• One cushion

• Inspect the mating surfaces and remove debris before installing the cushion
• Install in the same orientation as the original part; hand-press or gently tap into place
• Do not use adhesives or solvents unless specified by the equipment manufacturer

This replacement insulator cushions and isolates appliance components to reduce vibration and prevent rubbing or air leaks that can affect performance. Use it to restore quiet, steady operation and protect nearby wiring or parts. What it does:

• Cushions components to reduce vibration and rattling noises
• Prevents rubbing and wear between parts that can cause intermittent faults
• Helps maintain proper airflow sealing where used in the appliance
• Protects wiring and small components from chafing or heat exposure

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing.
• Remove panels or components as needed to access the damaged insulator; basic hand tools are usually sufficient.
• Replace only the damaged insulator; install so it seats fully in its mounting location.
