This flat metal washer provides a durable spacer and load-bearing surface for fasteners in the appliance, helping maintain proper alignment and reduce wear on mating parts. It's a simple replacement that restores correct assembly spacing. What it does:

• Acts as a load-distributing spacer between fastened components to prevent loosening and wear
• Helps maintain proper alignment of shafts, housings, or assemblies
• Can reduce vibration or movement caused by uneven mating surfaces
• Commonly replaced when hardware is corroded, damaged, or missing

• One flat metal washer (quantity: 1)

• Verify the exact washer size and thickness before installation; replace with the same type
• Tighten fasteners to the manufacturer's torque specifications when known; avoid overtightening
• If used near electrical connections, ensure power is disconnected before working
• Inspect adjacent fasteners and components for wear and replace if necessary

The Drive Gear Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool trash compactors. It is an essential component that powers the compaction mechanism. The drive gear kit consists of a series of gears, shafts, and other components that work together to transfer the motor's rotational force to the compaction ram.

Causes of a bad drive gear kit in a trash compactor can include mechanical wear and tear over time, exposure to excessive loads or foreign objects, or damage from improper usage or maintenance.

Symptoms of a faulty drive gear kit in a trash compactor:

• Difficulty in starting or completing the compaction cycle
• Loud grinding or squeaking noises during operation
• Failure of the compaction ram to move or compress waste properly
• Leaks or vibrations due to improper alignment or gear damage

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore trash compactor models.

This black refrigerator container handle replaces a worn, cracked, or missing pull on an interior bin or drawer. It restores a secure grip so you can easily slide the container in and out on compatible models.

• Attaches to the front of a refrigerator container or its cover to provide a solid handhold
• Replaces cracked, loose, or missing handle pieces
• Helps bins open and close smoothly without stressing the cover/front
• Common symptoms: handle broken or missing, tabs snapped, handle won't stay attached, drawer hard to pull

• Remove the bin/drawer and place the cover or front on a flat, protected surface
• Release the old handle by removing screws or disengaging tabs/clips (varies by model); keep hardware for reuse
• Align the new handle and snap or screw it into place; do not overtighten
• Handle glass and plastic parts carefully; wearing cut-resistant gloves is recommended

This door lock latch assembly secures the washer door during operation so cycles can run safely and water stays contained. It replaces a worn or damaged latch to restore proper door locking and cycle start. What it does

• Secures and locks the washer door during wash and spin cycles so the appliance can operate normally.
• Triggers the door-closed sensor/switch that allows the washer to start and continue a cycle.
• Helps prevent accidental door opening and reduces the risk of leaks during operation.
• Common symptoms indicating this part may be needed: washer won't start, door won't latch or lock, or the latch feels loose or broken.

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the door lock latch.
• Handle the door and glass carefully to avoid damage; align the latch with the strike before tightening fasteners.
• After installation, test a short cycle (no clothes) to ensure the door locks and the washer starts properly.

This replacement leveling wheel restores a dryer/washer cabinet's ability to sit level and roll smoothly during adjustment. It helps stop wobble and ensures the appliance can be properly leveled for stable operation. What it does:

• Replaces a worn or broken leveling wheel on the appliance base or leveling assembly
• Allows the cabinet to be adjusted up or down when setting appliance height
• Helps reduce rocking, uneven vibration, and unstable operation caused by a damaged leveler
• Works with the appliance's leveling hardware to keep the cabinet properly supported

• One replacement leveling wheel

• Disconnect power and water before beginning any work
• Support the appliance securely to relieve weight from the leveling assembly before removal
• Remove the old wheel from the leveler shaft and press or snap the new wheel into place; use basic hand tools as needed

This sprocket is the replacement drive gear that helps transfer motor movement to the appliance's drive system, restoring reliable rotation and timing. It's a direct-fit component used in the unit's drivetrain to maintain proper mechanical engagement. What it does:

• Engages with the drive chain/belt or related components to transmit rotational force from the motor
• Maintains proper timing and alignment of moving parts for consistent operation
• Worn or broken sprockets can cause skipping, slipping, noisy operation, or loss of drive
• Replacing a damaged sprocket helps eliminate drivetrain play and irregular movement

• One sprocket

• Disconnect power (and water supply if applicable) before beginning any repair
• Inspect mating components (chain/belt, bearings, bushings) and replace if worn to prevent premature failure
• Installation may require basic hand tools and lifting or support of the assembly; follow the appliance service manual for disassembly/reassembly steps

Size: 8-32 x 1/4 inch.

This bearing plate supports the dryer drum shaft and secures the bearing assembly so the drum spins smoothly and stays aligned. Replacing a worn plate restores stable drum rotation and helps reduce noise and rubbing. What it does:

• Provides a mounting surface and alignment for the drum bearing and shaft
• Keeps the drum centered to prevent wobbling, scraping, and uneven wear
• Reduces loud bearing or metal-on-metal noises caused by a damaged plate
• Helps maintain smooth drum rotation and proper belt alignment

• Turn power and gas off to the appliance before starting work
• Inspect surrounding components (bearing, shaft, seals, mounting screws) and replace if damaged
• Use correct fasteners and torque to secure the plate; improper mounting can cause noise or premature wear

This E-ring retaining clip secures latch components by locking onto a shaft or pin so the latch assembly stays in place. It's a small but essential metal clip that prevents latch parts from slipping off and causing door or panel issues. What it does:

• Locks onto latch shafts or pins to hold the latch assembly together
• Prevents the latch or related parts from sliding off during operation
• Common symptoms: door or panel won't stay closed, rattling or loose parts near the latch, visible clip missing or deformed
• Helps restore secure engagement of the latch when the clip is intact and correctly positioned

• One E-ring retaining clip

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before beginning any repair
• Use pliers or snap-ring tools to remove/install the clip; avoid excessive force that could deform it
• Replace the clip if it is bent, cracked, or worn — do not reuse a damaged clip
