This U-type nut clips over a sheet-metal edge to create a durable threaded anchor for a screw. It helps secure panels, trim, and brackets so fasteners hold tight and components stay aligned and rattle-free. What it does:

• Clips onto thin sheet metal to provide captive threads where a standard nut cannot be used
• Holds screws securely to fasten panels, trim pieces, or mounting brackets
• Addresses issues like loose panels, missing/broken clips, or screws that will not tighten
• Helps reduce vibration and rattling from unsecured components

• 1 U-type nut

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water before servicing
• Position the U-nut over the panel edge with the threaded side aligned to the hole
• Start the screw by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening
• Replace any damaged or corroded hardware to ensure a secure hold

This support washer is a flat spacer used within the mechanism to support and separate mating parts, maintaining alignment and smoother movement. Replacing a worn washer helps reduce friction and wear so components operate properly. What it does:

• Helps prevent metal-to-metal contact, reducing scraping or grinding noises
• Addresses wobble or excess play when the original washer is worn, deformed, or missing
• Restores smoother movement and alignment in the assembly

• One support washer

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing; for gas combos, also shut off gas
• Refer to your model's parts diagram for location and orientation
• Track the order of any shims/spacers during disassembly and reinstall in the same sequence
• Tighten fasteners to manufacturer guidance to avoid deforming the washer or binding parts

This console screw secures the control console to the appliance cabinet or top, keeping the panel tight and aligned. Replace a missing or damaged screw to stop panel wobble and rattling and maintain a snug, stable fit. What it does:

• Fastens the control console/control panel to the cabinet or top panel
• Helps maintain alignment and reduces vibration and rattling
• Replaces a missing, stripped, or rusty original screw
• Common fix for a loose or lifting console/panel

• 1 screw

• Disconnect power before service; if applicable, shut off gas/water
• Support the console to avoid straining wiring harnesses
• Start threads by hand to prevent cross-threading; tighten until snug—do not overtighten
• Use the correct driver style for your model's hardware

This 8-18 x 5/8-inch screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and covers. Replacing a missing or stripped fastener restores a tight fit and helps prevent vibration or loosening where this exact size is specified.

• Fastens sheet-metal or plastic components where a #8-18 x 5/8 screw is called for
• Helps maintain alignment and reduce rattling or vibration
• Replaces stripped, corroded, or missing screws of the same size
• Common symptoms: loose panels, gaps/poor fit, rattling noises, or visible missing hardware

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water (as applicable) before service
• Match thread and length to the original; replace screws one at a time to keep parts aligned
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening
• If the receiving threads are damaged, additional repair (clip, insert, or new nut) may be needed

This bearing ring is a small, low-friction spacer used in the dryer's drive system to let rotating components spin smoothly and quietly. Replacing a worn ring helps reduce drag, eliminate squeal, and protect related parts. What it does:

• Provides a bearing surface between a rotating wheel/pulley and its bracket
• Helps maintain smooth belt tracking and consistent tumble
• Reduces friction and wear on the belt and pulley/roller
• Common symptoms of wear: squealing/chirping while running, intermittent drum start, drag or burning-rubber smell

• 1 bearing ring

• Disconnect power; for gas dryers, also shut off gas supply
• Access the drive system; release belt tension and remove the affected pulley/roller as required
• Note the order/orientation of spacers, washers, and clips; install the new ring in the same position
• Hand-rotate the assembly to ensure free movement before reassembly and testing

This fixed-value resistor is an electrical component used in select dryers to limit current in a specific control circuit. It helps the timer or electronic control operate correctly by dropping voltage to safe, design-intended levels.

• Provides precise resistance to reduce voltage/current in the designated dryer circuit
• Supports proper operation of the timer, control board, or end-of-cycle signal (varies by model)
• Failure may present as a timer that won't advance, an inoperative signal/buzzer, or irregular cycle behavior
• Replace if visibly burned/damaged or if testing shows an open or shorted condition

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Access the console/wiring harness and note original wire routing
• Make secure, insulated connections and route the resistor/leads exactly as original to avoid heat or chafing
• After installation, run a test cycle to ensure proper operation of the affected function
