This timer shield is a molded cover that protects the appliance's timer/control mechanism from dust, debris and accidental contact, helping the timer operate reliably and extending component life. What it does:

• Covers the timer assembly to shield electrical contacts and the timer shaft from contaminants
• Reduces risk of shorting from debris or accidental contact with the timer
• Helps prevent intermittent timer operation caused by dirt or physical interference
• Appropriate for repairs where the original timer cover is cracked, missing, or damaged

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any service
• Remove any control knobs or bezel needed to access the timer, then snap or screw the shield into place per the original orientation
• Inspect surrounding components (timer mounting, wiring) while the control is exposed; replace damaged parts as needed

Mounting screw for dryer assembly. Secures internal components and panels. Replace if stripped, missing, or damaged during maintenance or repair work.

This is a replacement mounting screw used to secure a solenoid valve or solenoid assembly in appliances. It provides a durable fastening point so the solenoid stays properly positioned and functions reliably. What it does:

• Secures solenoid valves or solenoid assemblies to the appliance frame or bracket
• Helps maintain correct alignment for valve operation and connections
• Prevents loosening from vibration or normal use
• Suitable where the OEM fastener is required for a proper fit

• Use the matching screw size and thread pattern listed in the appliance parts diagram
• Tighten to snug only; overtightening can strip threads or damage the solenoid housing
• Disconnect power and shut off water before servicing the appliance
• If other fasteners or damaged components are present, inspect and replace as needed
