• If needed, use a small amount of manufacturer-recommended lubricant to ease installation and protect the O-ring

This replacement shim is a thin positioning spacer used to align or level internal components for correct fit and operation. It helps restore proper clearances and reduce rubbing, noise, or misalignment-related issues. What it does:

• Provides precise spacing between parts to ensure correct alignment
• Helps eliminate rubbing or contact that can cause noise or wear
• Restores proper component clearance after service or reassembly
• Used when a missing, worn, or incorrect spacer leads to misalignment symptoms

• One replacement shim

• Inspect mating surfaces and clean debris before installing the shim
• Verify correct placement and orientation against the original shim or diagram
• Tighten fasteners to the manufacturer's specifications; do not overtighten
• Disconnect power and follow all safety precautions before servicing

This condenser grommet cushions and secures the refrigerator condenser assembly, reducing vibration and preventing metal-to-metal contact. It helps keep the condenser stable for quieter operation and longer component life. What it does:

• Isolates condenser from the cabinet to reduce rattling and vibration noise
• Prevents condenser edges from rubbing or wearing against the chassis
• Helps maintain proper condenser alignment for efficient airflow
• Commonly replaced when cracked, torn, or missing and causing noise or movement

• Disconnect power before servicing the appliance.
• Support the condenser assembly before removing or installing the grommet to avoid stress on tubing.
• Push the grommet into position; replace any grommets that are brittle or deformed.

This water tank cover replaces a damaged or missing upper reservoir cover to keep the appliance's water reservoir contained and protected. It restores a proper seal and helps prevent water from spilling into internal compartments. What it does:

• Covers and protects the water reservoir to reduce leaks and water intrusion
• Helps maintain correct water flow paths inside the cabinet
• Prevents debris from entering the tank and affecting performance
• Reduces risk of water contacting electrical components or insulation

• One water tank cover

• Designed for drop-in or snap-in replacement; follow OEM diagram for orientation
• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing to avoid shock and leakage
• Inspect adjoining gaskets and mounting clips; replace if cracked or missing
• Handle plastic parts gently to avoid cracking; use appropriate tools to remove fasteners

This drier is the factory replacement air/gas flow assembly that helps maintain proper airflow and drying performance in compatible laundry dryers. Replacing a worn drier restores consistent drying and reduces overheating risk. What it does:

• Directs and stabilizes heated air through the drum for efficient drying
• Helps prevent restricted airflow that can cause long dry times or damp laundry
• Supports safe exhaust flow to reduce the chance of overheating or lint buildup
• Works with the dryer's heating and ventilation components to maintain normal operation

• One drier assembly as shown

• Disconnect electrical power before beginning service; if this is a gas dryer, turn off and disconnect the gas supply
• Follow the dryer manufacturer's service manual for disassembly and reassembly steps
• Use appropriate hand tools and avoid forcing parts; inspect venting and lint traps while replacing

This hi-lo hex screw secures panels and components on compatible Whirlpool appliances, providing a correct fit and reliable fastening where factory hardware is required. Use to replace missing, damaged, or stripped fasteners for a secure repair. What it does:

• Fastens panels, control boards, or trim where a hi-lo hex-head screw is specified
• Restores proper mounting when original screw is missing, bent, or stripped
• Helps stop rattling or movement caused by loose or damaged fasteners
• Matches factory fit to maintain correct alignment and clearances

• One hi-lo hex-head screw (quantity: 1)

• Turn off and unplug the appliance before starting any repair
• Use the correct hex driver to avoid rounding the head; install until snug—do not overtighten
• Confirm screw length and thread engagement match the original to prevent damage to components

This mounting bracket secures and supports internal appliance components to keep assemblies aligned and reduce vibration. A simple replacement that restores proper fit and stops rattling or loose panels caused by a broken or bent bracket. What it does

• Provides a rigid anchor point to hold panels, assemblies or hardware in place
• Keeps components aligned to prevent rubbing, vibration and noise
• Restores proper fit where a worn or damaged bracket caused gaps or looseness
• Helps maintain safe operation by preventing parts from shifting during use

• One mounting bracket

• Disconnect power (unplug appliance or turn off circuit) before starting any repair
• Basic hand tools (screwdriver, nut driver) typically required; retain removed fasteners for reassembly
• Handle edges carefully; metal parts may be sharp
• for exact bracket location and proper reassembly

This clamp secures flexible hoses to fittings to maintain a tight seal and prevent leaks. Use it to replace a worn or loose clamp to stop water or air seepage and restore proper hose attachment. What it does:

• Holds a washer, dryer, or appliance hose firmly to a barb or fitting to prevent slipping
• Helps maintain a watertight or airtight connection to reduce leaks and drips
• Replaces corroded, cracked, or stretched clamps that no longer grip reliably
• Supports normal appliance operation by keeping fluid/air flow contained

• One clamp

• Inspect the hose and fitting; replace the hose if damaged before installing the clamp
