This is a replacement machine screw sized 8-18 x 3/8 that secures panels and components on compatible appliances. It restores proper fastening where a worn, stripped, or missing screw causes loose parts or rattling. What it does

• Fastens control panels, trim pieces, or brackets to the appliance chassis
• Replaces stripped, corroded, or missing screws that cause loose panels or vibrating noise
• Provides correct thread engagement for a secure hold in tapped holes
• Small hardware solution often used during door, console, or interior repairs

• One 8-18 x 3/8 machine screw (quantity: 1)

• Use the correct screw size and thread; do not force a different-size fastener into tapped holes
• Hand-start the screw to avoid cross-threading, then tighten with the appropriate screwdriver
• Disconnect power before accessing internal components or panels on electrical appliances
• If metal threads are damaged, repair with a helicoil or replace the damaged component rather than over-torquing

This is a replacement screw designed to work with a wide range of household appliances. It is used for many purposes in these appliances, from holding body panels together to securing electronics into control boards. However, screws are subject to damage through corrosion, impact, and improper installation/removal. In most cases, the primary damage to this screw is through corrosion – it may become rusted or corroded in place, depending on the appliance and the maintenance provided during its lifespan. The screw may also be stripped or rounded due to improper removal or installation. If the screw is damaged, lost, or corroded in place, it will need to be replaced. In most cases, removal will require nothing more than a Phillips head screwdriver or the appropriately sized socket with a ratchet. However, if the screw is damaged, it may require a tap set to remove it from its mounting location. Note that this is a genuine OEM replacement screw made from durable, high-quality metal, and is sold individually. It fits Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Estate, Amana, Crosley, and Thermador appliances. It is used in over 150 machines, ranging from washers and dryers to air conditioners.

This driver coupling connects the dryer motor to the drum and transfers rotational force so the drum spins. Replacing a worn coupling restores reliable drum rotation and helps stop slipping or intermittent drum movement. What it does:

• Transfers torque from the motor to the drum shaft so the drum turns during operation
• Prevents slipping between motor and drum when intact
• Commonly linked to symptoms like a drum that won't turn, intermittent drum movement, or grinding noises
• Helps stop excessive wear on motor or transmission components when replaced promptly

• One driver coupling

• Disconnect power before beginning any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Verify the drum and motor are accessible; you may need to remove the front panel, belt, or motor assembly depending on model
• Inspect the motor shaft and drum shaft for wear; replace any damaged components to prevent repeat failure
• Use proper tools and follow OEM instructions

This end cap fits on the front of the ice-bin auger. It secures the auger shaft and blade stack inside the ice container so cubes or crushed ice dispense smoothly and the auger stays properly aligned.

• Secures the front of the auger and blades in the ice bucket
• Maintains auger alignment with the drive for reliable ice dispensing
• Helps prevent jams and rattling in the ice container
• Common symptoms of a failed cap: weak/no ice dispense, loose/wobbly auger, grinding or rattling noises, visible cracks or a missing cap

• Disconnect power and remove the ice bin before servicing
• Note the order of blades, spacers, and washers; take a photo for reassembly
• Replace the cap and reassemble in the original order using existing hardware
• Ensure the bin is fully seated and test dispense after restoring power
