Kenmore Refrigerator 596.50392000 (59650392000, 596 50392000) Parts

This replacement screw fastens internal components and panels so parts stay secure and quiet. It's a direct-fit fastener used where the original mounting screw is missing or damaged to restore proper assembly. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets or components to prevent movement and vibration
• Restores proper alignment for covers and access panels
• Stops rattling or loose-fitting parts caused by a missing or stripped screw
• Works as the factory-specified fastener for the original mounting point

• The screw location and type before installing; use the original hole and thread
• Power off and disconnect the appliance before accessing internal components
• Start the screw by hand to avoid cross-threading, then snug with the appropriate screwdriver
• Do not overtighten — stop once the part is secure to avoid stripping or cracking

This drive coupling connects the washer motor to the transmission, transferring power to spin and agitate the tub. Replacing a worn coupling restores proper drivetrain engagement and reduces slipping, grinding, or loss of agitation. What it does:

• Transfers rotational force from the motor to the transmission so the washer can agitate and spin.
• Failsafe for worn motor-to-gearcase connection; a broken coupling commonly causes no-agitate or no-spin symptoms.
• Can produce burning smell, loud grinding, or slipping when deteriorated.
• Helps prevent further damage to the motor or transmission by isolating shock loads.

• Disconnect power and water before starting any repair.
• Basic disassembly of the washer cabinet and access to the motor/transmission area is required.
• Verify correct alignment of tabs/slots during installation to ensure proper engagement.

This metal bottom hinge shim helps level and align the appliance door by providing a thin, durable spacer under the bottom hinge. Proper shimming restores correct door fit and reduces rubbing or uneven gaps for reliable sealing. What it does:

• Adds precise spacing under the bottom hinge to correct door height and tilt
• Helps stop door rubbing, binding, or uneven gaps that can affect sealing
• Restores proper door alignment so the latch and seals engage correctly
• Durable metal construction resists compression for long-lasting support

• Disconnect power and empty or support the door before working on hinges to avoid injury or damage.
• Support the door while removing hinge fasteners; small shims are installed under the hinge plate.
• Use the correct size fasteners and torque per the manufacturer; replace damaged hardware as needed.

This timer mounting bracket secures the appliance timer assembly to the cabinet so the timer stays aligned and stable during operation. Replaces a worn or broken bracket to restore proper timer support and reduce vibration. What it does:

• Holds the timer/timer motor firmly in place on the control panel or chassis
• Prevents the timer from shifting or rattling during cycles
• Helps maintain proper gear alignment for accurate cycle timing
• Commonly replaced when bracket is bent, cracked, or missing mounting studs

• One timer mounting bracket

• Basic hand tools required; disconnect power before beginning repair
• Inspect related fasteners and the timer housing for additional damage
• Handle the timer assembly carefully to avoid damaging wiring or connectors
