The Washplate Cap is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It serves as a protective cover for the central washplate, helping to keep debris and clothes from getting trapped in the washplate mechanism.

Causes of a bad washplate cap can include normal wear and tear, exposure to harsh laundry chemicals, or damage from heavy or unbalanced loads.

Symptoms of a bad washplate cap include:

• The cap not fitting securely on the washplate
• Visible cracks or damage
• Clothes getting snagged or trapped under the washplate

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

The Screw is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This screw is used to securely attach the wash plate or agitator to the bottom of the washer's drum. This screw ensures that the wash plate remains firmly in place during the washer's operation, preventing movement that could lead to inefficient washing or damage to the machine.

Causes of damage to the screw can include corrosion over time, overloading of the washing machine which puts excess stress on the wash plate, or wear and tear from regular use. 

Symptoms of a bad Screw include:

• The wash plate becoming loose or detached
• Unusual noises during the wash cycle, such as rattling or banging
• The washer failing to agitate properly

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

The Tub Ring is an OEM component for Whirlpool washing machines. It is a rubber or plastic ring that fits snugly within the metal wash tub to create a protective seal. 

The tub ring prevents leakage, provides noise dampening, and distributes rotational forces evenly across the tub base during spin cycles. Its durable construction withstands continuous agitation and movement.

Causes for a bad tub ring include cracking or splits that compromise the seal over time. Foreign objects like coins or fasteners left in pockets could puncture the ring.

Symptoms of a bad tub ring include:

• Puddling, leaks, or drips under the washer after use  
• Vibrations transfer more noticeably through floors
• Higher water levels than normal required 
• Soap scum builds up around the base over multiple loads

This OEM part is also compatible with washing machines from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and Kenmore.

The Spanner Nut is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This spanner nut secures the tub in place, ensuring it operates smoothly and without excessive vibration.

Causes of a bad washer nut-spanner can include wear and tear from extended use, over-tightening, or damage from improper handling during repairs.

Symptoms of a bad washer nut-spanner include:

• Excessive vibration or movement of the tub during operation
• Unusual noises such as banging or clanking
• The tub becoming loose or misaligned
• Difficulty in tightening or loosening the nut during maintenance

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

This clamp secures a washer or dryer hose to its connection to prevent leaks and keep the hose firmly in place during operation. It replaces worn or loose clamps that allow water to escape or hoses to detach. What it does:

• Holds a washer/dryer hose to a nipple, collar or fitting to maintain a sealed connection
• Prevents water leaks caused by loose or corroded clamps
• Stops hoses from slipping off during drain or fill cycles
• Restores proper hose retention and reduces risk of water damage

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before starting any repair
• Inspect hose and fitting for damage; replace hose if cracked or frayed
• Use appropriate pliers or a screwdriver for the clamp style; avoid overtightening to prevent hose damage
• Verify a leak-free connection after restoring power and water

This replacement screw secures panels, brackets, and other components in your appliance to keep them aligned and rattle-free. Replacing worn, stripped, or missing hardware restores a tight fit and helps maintain safe, quiet operation.

• Fastens panels, brackets, or internal parts to the cabinet/frame
• Helps maintain alignment to reduce vibration and rattling
• Replaces lost, stripped, or corroded screws
• Common symptoms: loose panels/trim, rattles, or a screw that won't tighten

• Disconnect power; shut off water or gas if applicable
• Match thread and length to the original; replace one at a time to keep alignment
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; use the correct driver
• Tighten snugly—do not overtighten, especially into plastic or thin sheet metal

This factory fastener secures appliance components so panels, brackets, and trim stay tight and aligned. Replace a missing or stripped screw to stop rattles, restore a secure fit, and keep parts mounted as designed.

• Fastens panels, brackets, covers, and trim to the chassis
• Restores proper alignment and reduces vibration or rattling
• Replaces missing, rusted, or stripped hardware
• Helps maintain a solid, factory-style fit after service

• Disconnect power (and water, if applicable) before servicing

• Use the correct driver for the head type; tighten snugly without overtightening
• Reuse any original washers or clips if present

This is the stator for the washer's direct-drive motor. The stationary coil generates the magnetic field the rotor uses to spin and agitate the basket, restoring smooth, reliable drive performance when the original windings fail.

• Creates the electromagnetic field that powers the direct-drive motor
• Works with the rotor to spin the basket and drive agitation
• Failure symptoms can include no spin, no agitation, or the basket not turning
• Intermittent or weak spin performance can also indicate a failing stator

• Disconnect power and turn off water before servicing; allow components to stop moving
• Access from the bottom of the washer; remove the rotor cover and center bolt, then lift off the rotor (strong magnets—handle carefully)
• Unplug the motor harness, remove stator mounting bolts, and note wire routing/orientation
• Install the new stator evenly, tighten bolts in a crisscross pattern, reconnect the harness, then reinstall the rotor and cover

The Clutch is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It engages the transmission that drives the wash basket's rotation during agitation and spinning cycles. Without a functioning clutch, the washer cannot transition effectively between wash and rinse operations. The clutch measures 4-7/8 inches in diameter

Causes of a bad clutch can include wear from repetitive use over many years or damage to the clutch coil that triggers engagement. Parts may have weakened to a point where they no longer make full contact needed for proper shifting.

Symptoms of a bad clutch include:

• The washer basket not spinning or turning at all
• Agitation but no transition to spin or vice versa
• Loud grinding noises coming from the transmission area

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Motor Rotor is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washing machines. Situated within the transmission housing, this specialized metal component physically connects the drive motor to the outer brake housing that controls the drive shaft and wash basket movements during all cycles.

Causes of failure involve the wearing of motor bearings or cracking of cast magnesium surfaces from repeated rotations over extended usage periods.

Symptoms requiring replacement include: 

• Vibration or shaking noises heard from inside cabinetry 
• Cycles displaying mechanical faults or not advancing properly
• Grinding sounds impeding smooth motor operations
• Drive failure troubles identified through diagnostic codes

This Whirlpool replacement is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, and select other brands utilizing common Whirlpool motor designs.
