This control switch is the user-facing rotary selector that lets the appliance select cycles and settings. It restores clear, tactile control so the unit responds correctly when you turn the knob. What it does:

• Selects operating cycles and settings when the knob is turned
• Routes electrical signals from the control panel to the selected function
• Commonly replaced when settings do not change or the control feels loose/slips
• Resolves intermittent or unresponsive cycle selection and erratic behavior

• Disconnect power before attempting any repair to avoid electrical shock
• Accessible from the control panel; remove trim or console as needed per your model's service instructions
• Test function after reassembly; do not force the selector or use excessive torque

Color: black. It measures about 11-1/2 inches wide by 20 inches deep.

A small lock-style nut that secures a threaded shaft or fastener to prevent loosening from vibration and normal use. Restores a firm connection so the appliance parts stay aligned and operate quietly and reliably. What it does:

• Locks a threaded connection in place to prevent backing off from vibration
• Keeps rotating or mounted components secured to reduce wobble or movement
• Helps stop noises caused by loose fasteners or shifting parts
• Restores proper fit where a worn or missing nut allowed play

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before starting any repair
• Use the correct size wrench/socket and hold mating hardware to avoid twisting other components
• Inspect threads for damage; replace mating fasteners if stripped
• Tighten securely to OEM guidance; avoid over-tightening which can damage threads

This screw is a factory-style mounting fastener used to secure appliance panels and components. It replaces worn, stripped, or missing screws to restore proper fit and reduce rattling. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, or trim to the appliance frame
• Keeps components aligned to prevent vibration and noise
• Replaces damaged or corroded fasteners that can cause loose parts
• Helps maintain safe, stable operation of moving or load-bearing assemblies

• Turn off power and unplug the appliance before servicing
• Use the correct driver bit and match thread engagement to avoid stripping
• Tighten snugly but avoid over-torquing which can crack plastic or strip threads
• Wear eye protection and keep small parts away from children and pets

This locknut is a small threaded retaining nut used to secure rotating and stationary appliance components, helping keep assemblies tight and stable during operation. It prevents parts from loosening and reduces vibration-related issues. What it does:

• Secures shafts, pulleys, or fittings to prevent axial movement
• Keeps assemblies fastened under normal vibration and load
• Helps stop wobble, grinding, or part separation caused by a loose connection
• Works with the matching threaded stud, shaft, or fitting for a proper hold

• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before servicing
• Use the matching thread size and engage threads fully; hand-start before tightening
• Tighten securely without overtightening; use the correct driver or socket for the nut
• Inspect mating threads and replace if damaged

This band motor is the motor assembly that powers the appliance's moving band or drive link, restoring the mechanism that enables normal rotating or indexing motion. Use it to replace a worn or failed motor for smoother operation. What it does:

• Drives the appliance's band/drive link so the linked components can rotate or index as designed
• Restores motion when the original motor is noisy, weak, or no longer turns
• Helps stop skipping or intermittent movement caused by a failed motor
• Works as the direct replacement motor when the OEM part is specified

• One band motor assembly

• Disconnect power before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Installation may require removing panels and fastening the motor to the band/drive; keep hardware for reassembly
• Verify alignment and secure belt or band tension per the appliance's service instructions
