• Note hose routing; fully seat ends and secure with existing or new clamps as required
• Restore water and power, then run a quick fill to check all connections for leaks

This Leg Adjusting Wrench is a simple tool used to turn and secure appliance leveling legs so washers and dryers sit flat and operate quietly. It makes adjusting legs faster and helps reduce rocking and vibration. What it does:

• Fits over standard appliance leveling legs to raise or lower each corner
• Helps stabilize machines to prevent rocking and uneven operation
• Reduces vibration and noise caused by unlevel appliances
• Useful when installing, moving, or re-leveling washers and dryers

• Turn legs slowly and adjust one corner at a time until the appliance sits level.
• Unplug the appliance (and shut off gas supply for gas dryers) before performing major moves or checks.
• Use caution to avoid pinching fingers when lowering legs; keep hands clear of pinch points.
• Check for damaged feet or mounting hardware and replace as needed.

This spring-style hose clamp secures a washer's rubber hose to its fitting to maintain a tight, leak-resistant seal. Replacing a weakened clamp helps stop drips and keeps the hose firmly in place during operation.

• Provides constant spring tension to hold a rubber hose on its port
• Helps prevent leaks at the connection point
• Resists vibration so the hose doesn't back off the fitting
• Common signs include water at a hose joint, a loose/detached hose, or a rusted/broken clamp

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before servicing
• Place a towel or pan to catch residual water from hoses
• Use pliers to compress the ears, slide off the old clamp, position the new clamp behind the hose bead, and release evenly
• After reassembly, run a quick test cycle and check for leaks

This clamp secures hoses or wiring to the appliance chassis to prevent movement, chafing, and vibration-related wear. It helps keep connections stable so hoses and wires stay in place during normal use. What it does:

• Holds water, drain or vent hoses in position to reduce strain and prevent rubbing
• Keeps wiring harnesses routed and fastened to avoid chafing or accidental disconnection
• Reduces vibration-related noise caused by loose hoses or wires
• Helps prevent hose kinks and unintended movement that can lead to leaks or intermittent electrical issues

• One clamp

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing; shut off water supply if working with water lines
• Remove panels as needed to access the hose or wiring route, then replace the clamp in the same orientation
• Use appropriate pliers or a screwdriver if required; do not overtighten or deform the hose or wiring
• If the original clamp was secured with a fastener, retain and reuse it only if undamaged; replace any stripped or broken hardware

This inlet hose delivers fresh water from your home supply to the appliance, restoring proper fill and preventing leaks. It's a direct-fit replacement designed to restore normal water flow and stop visible hose damage. What it does:

• Channels water from the household supply into the appliance's inlet valve
• Replaces cracked, split, or leaking inlet hoses that allow water to escape
• Helps resolve symptoms like weak/no fill, visible dripping at the connection, or intermittent water flow
• Matches OEM routing and connection points for a proper seal when installed correctly

• Turn off water supply and unplug the appliance before starting
• Inspect fittings and replace any damaged seals or washers as needed
• Hand-tighten connections and finish with a quarter turn; avoid overtightening to prevent damage
• Run a short test fill and check all connections for leaks before returning the appliance to service

A replacement hose clamp that secures a flexible hose to its fitting to help prevent leaks and disconnections. Restores a tight, reliable seal so hoses stay seated during normal use. What it does:

• Holds a rubber or plastic hose firmly to a pump, valve or connection to prevent leaks.
• Helps stop hose pull-off that can cause water leaks or appliance interruptions.
• Commonly replaced when clamps are corroded, bent, cracked or missing.
• Works as a low-cost repair to restore a secure hose connection without replacing the hose assembly.

• Disconnect power to the appliance and shut off the water supply before servicing.
• Use the correct tool (slip-joint pliers for spring-style clamps or a screwdriver for screw-type clamps) and avoid pinching the hose.
• Inspect the hose and fitting for damage; replace the hose if it's cracked or excessively worn.
• After installing, restore power/water and run a short test cycle or check for leaks.

A molded water guide that routes dispenser water inside the refrigerator to the dispenser/ice area, helping direct flow and reduce splashing. Fits the factory mounting points for a clean, secure path for water. What it does

• Channels water from the inlet tubing toward the dispenser/ice assembly to prevent misdirected flow.
• Helps keep water from pooling or dripping inside the cabinet or on internal components.
• Common replacement when you see water on shelves, puddling near the dispenser, or reduced or misdirected dispenser flow.
• Preserves proper alignment of the dispenser plumbing to prevent kinks or strain on tubing.

• One water guide (single molded channel) as shown.

• Turn off the refrigerator and shut off the water supply before starting; disconnect power for safety.
• Remove interior panels or shelves as needed to access mounting points; keep fasteners for reassembly.
