Kenmore Washer 110.72404140 (11072404140, 110 72404140) Parts

This wire retaining ring secures the door boot (bellow) to the front tub on front-load washers. It keeps the gasket seated to maintain a watertight seal, helping prevent leaks when the washer fills, agitates, and spins.

• Secures the door boot/gasket to the outer tub opening
• Maintains a watertight seal during wash and spin cycles
• Helps prevent the boot from slipping off the tub lip
• Common symptoms: water leaking at the front, a loose or detached boot, or a broken/missing ring

• Unplug the washer and shut off water; wear gloves and eye protection—the ring is under spring tension
• Release the outer boot clamp and fold the boot inward to access the inner ring
• Seat the boot evenly on the tub rim, then expand and fit the ring into its groove; verify it's fully seated all the way around
• Reassemble and run a quick test cycle to check for leaks

• Helps prevent snagging or accidental contact with the switch mechanism
• Supports consistent lid-closed sensing by keeping the switch area protected and in position
• If the shield is damaged or missing, you may notice exposed switch/wiring or intermittent starting/spinning that improves when the lid is pressed

• Disconnect power before servicing; turn off water if moving the appliance
• Access the lid switch area by raising the top or opening the console per the service procedure
• Install the shield in the original orientation and secure with the existing fasteners
• After reassembly, verify the lid closes properly and the washer starts/spins as expected

A replacement thrust bearing that supports the washer transmission shaft to reduce axial wear and help the gearbox rotate more smoothly. Use this bearing to address noisy transmission operation and reduce metal-on-metal wear when the original is worn. What it does:

• Supports axial load on the transmission/gearcase shaft to reduce friction and wear
• Helps prevent grinding, scraping, or other metal-on-metal noises from the gearbox
• Can reduce rough or noisy spin and improve agitation when a worn bearing is the cause
• Helps maintain proper alignment of transmission components for smoother operation

• Disconnect power and water supply and drain the washer before beginning any work.
• Replacement requires accessing the agitator/gearcase per the OEM service manual and may involve transmission/gearcase disassembly.
• Inspect nearby seals, fasteners and other bearings while servicing; replace damaged parts to avoid premature failure.
