Kenmore Compactor 665.1398181 (6651398181, 665 1398181) Parts

Bottle with brush. Color: Black. Size: 0.6 fl.oz.

Size: 8-32 x 3/8 inch.

This power nut threads onto the trash compactor's drive screw to raise and lower the ram. Replacing a worn nut restores smooth ram travel and helps prevent binding, stalling, or a ram that doesn't move.

• Threads onto the drive screw to convert motor rotation into up/down ram movement
• Worn or stripped threads can stop ram movement or cause binding under load
• Common symptoms: motor runs but ram doesn't move; grinding/stripping noises; ram stuck partway up or down

• Disconnect power at the breaker; pull the compactor from the cabinet as needed for access
• Support and secure the ram before removing the nut to prevent sudden movement
• Inspect the drive screw and ram guides for wear; replace any damaged parts
• After reassembly, run a full cycle to ensure smooth, complete ram travel

Size: 1/4 inch hex head, 10-12 x 1/2 inch.

Almond. Size: 13 oz. can. Acrylic appliance paint.

This switch nut secures a rotary control or switch to the appliance's front panel. Replacing a stripped or missing nut keeps the control stable so the knob turns smoothly and the shaft stays properly aligned.

• Clamps the switch/control to the panel to prevent movement or rotation
• Helps maintain correct knob alignment with dial markings
• Common symptoms: loose or wobbly knob, switch rotates in the panel, missing/damaged nut
• Often needed after service if the original nut is stripped or lost

• Disconnect electrical power before servicing
• Remove the knob and any decorative escutcheon; thread the new nut onto the switch bushing from the front of the panel
• Support the switch from behind while tightening; do not overtighten to avoid panel or switch damage
• Restore power and test control operation

This bearing supports a rotating shaft or assembly inside the appliance, reducing friction for smooth, quiet motion. Replacing a worn bearing helps eliminate noise, restore proper alignment, and prevent damage to mating parts.

• Supports and centers a rotating shaft or hub
• Reduces friction and wear for smoother, quieter operation
• Helps maintain alignment of connected components
• Common failure symptoms: grinding or squealing sounds, vibration or wobble, rough/stiff or seized rotation, excessive play

• Disconnect power before servicing; shut off water or gas if applicable
• Note orientation and retaining hardware before removal
• Use proper tools (puller/press) to remove and seat the bearing squarely—avoid hammering
• Inspect shaft/bore and related seals or spacers; replace worn components before reassembly

Size: 3\8-24 inch.

Color: Black. Size: 12 oz. Acrylic appliance aerosol can spray paint.

Power screw hub is a replacement drive hub that secures the washer's drive screw/agitator to the transmission, helping restore proper agitation and reduce slipping. Fits applications where a worn or broken hub causes drive loss. What it does:

• Transfers rotational force from the drive screw/agitator to the transmission so the washer can agitate or spin.
• Replaces stripped or worn splines that allow the agitator or drive screw to slip under load.
• Common symptoms it can help fix: agitator or drum won't engage, intermittent agitation, grinding or squeaking during cycles.
• Install replacement if splines are visibly damaged or if the hub no longer holds the drive assembly securely.

• Disconnect electrical power (and water supply if applicable) before beginning any repair.
• Remove agitator/drive components; use the correct tools to avoid further spline damage.
• Inspect mating splines and fasteners; replace any damaged hardware and clean the area before installation.
• After reassembly, run a short test cycle to confirm normal operation.

Size: 10-24 x 3/8 inch.

This replacement container spring helps restore proper tension and support for the container assembly, so the container stays secure and operates smoothly. Ideal when the original spring is worn, stretched, or broken. What it does:

• Provides tension to hold the container or bin in its intended position
• Replaces worn or broken springs that cause slipping or poor engagement
• Stops rattling or shifting caused by a weakened spring
• Helps the container latch, release, or return smoothly during use

• Basic hand tools may be required; follow the appliance's service manual for access and removal
• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before servicing to prevent injury
• Handle small parts carefully to avoid pinching; springs can store tension

This is the left side frame slide. For right side use W11722978.

Bottle with brush. Color: Platinum. Size: 0.6 fl.oz.

This precision thrust race serves as the hardened bearing surface for axial loads in a rotating mechanism. Replacing a worn race reduces friction and noise, helping restore smooth, consistent motion and protect companion thrust bearings and washers from accelerated wear.

• Provides the hardened bearing surface for a thrust bearing assembly
• Supports axial load and helps maintain proper end-play in the mechanism
• Reduces friction to allow smoother rotation under load
• Wear may present as grinding/scraping noises, rough or binding motion, excessive axial play, or visible scoring

• Disconnect power and shut off water/gas before servicing
• Access the thrust-bearing area; note the order and orientation of races, bearings, and washers for reassembly
• Clean mating surfaces; replace any worn companion parts and lubricate only if specified by the service documentation
• Seat the new race fully and verify free movement by hand before reassembly and testing
