Parts for Kenmore 689.116220 (689116220, 689 116220): Figure 17 Parts

This glide pad bracket assembly supports and stabilizes the appliance drum or tub, reducing friction and helping it turn smoothly. Replacing worn glides restores quiet operation and prevents metal-on-metal contact. What it does:

• Provides a low-friction contact surface where the drum or tub rides
• Helps keep the drum/tub properly aligned and supported
• Reduces scraping, squeaking, and rough or uneven rotation
• Prevents premature wear of the drum/tub and adjacent components

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before starting any repair
• Access may require removing the cabinet or drum
• Inspect surrounding supports and replace any other worn glides or bearings for best results
• Use only manufacturer-recommended parts; do not modify the assembly or use solvents/lubricants that could degrade the glide
