This replacement washer is a small hardware component used in appliance assemblies to provide a stable bearing surface and proper spacing. Replacing a worn or missing washer helps maintain alignment, reduce vibration, and protect mating parts from damage.

• Distributes load under a nut, bolt, pin, or shaft to protect mating surfaces
• Maintains correct spacing and alignment within stacked components
• Helps reduce friction, vibration, and noise in moving assemblies
• Worn or missing washers can contribute to looseness, wobble, rattling, or premature wear

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water before servicing
• Note the original order and orientation of parts during disassembly
• Inspect fasteners, shafts, and bushings; replace any that show wear or damage
• Tighten fasteners securely per the service manual; do not overtighten

This timer knob mounts on the appliance's mechanical timer shaft and lets you select cycles and settings. Replace a cracked or stripped knob to restore smooth, positive control of the timer and accurate cycle selection.

• Provides a secure grip for selecting and adjusting settings
• Common symptoms: knob spins without moving the timer, feels loose, cracked, or missing
• Helps restore proper engagement when the hub is worn or stripped

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Pull the old knob straight off the timer shaft
• Align the flat/splines of the new knob with the shaft and press on firmly
• Rotate through a full turn to confirm proper engagement

This spring attaches to the dryer door hinge and provides tension to keep the door securely closed during operation. It allows the door to open and close smoothly while maintaining a proper seal. Replace this spring if the dryer door won't stay shut, pops open during a cycle, or if the spring is visibly stretched, broken, or detached from the hinge.

This metal clamp secures the drive motor to its mounting bracket inside the dryer. It prevents the motor from shifting or vibrating during operation. Replace this clamp if it is bent, broken, or missing, which can cause excessive vibration, unusual noises, or a motor that moves out of position.

The Screw is an OEM component compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. This screw secures the rear panel onto the cabinet frame, ensuring a sturdy connection between housing components.  Proper installation is critical for the washer's structural integrity.

Causes of a bad screw include corrosion from repeated water exposure or stresses from years of use. Loosening can occur from vibrations weakening the threads over time. 

Symptoms of a bad screw include:

• Rear panel detaching from frame opening gaps
• Increased noise and vibrations from a compromised seal  
• Stress on other connections from improper mounting points
• Potential leak paths from openings near hoses or tub areas

This OEM Whirlpool replacement screw helps maintain a tight panel closure. It is compatible with additional brands like Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

• Replaces buzzers that are silent, intermittent, weak or emitting erratic beeps
• Helps you hear and identify completed cycles and timed alerts
• Small, mountable unit that fits behind the control panel and connects to the control board

• One adjustable buzzer kit

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock risk
• Access may require removing the control panel; keep fasteners organized for reassembly
• Disconnect the buzzer wiring harness or connector before removing the old unit; connect the new buzzer the same way
