The Console Clip is an OEM part compatible with Whirlpool dryers. This clip secures the control console assembly to the top panel, ensuring it is firmly mounted during operation. Properly functioning clips are necessary to maintain the correct alignment of controls and prevent detachment. 

Causes of a bad clip can include wear and fatigue from repeated opening and closing of the dryer door. Excessive force or impact could also bend or break the clip over time.

Symptoms of a bad clip include:

  • Loose console assembly that is not securely fastened  
  • Misaligned or dangling controls that do not sit flush
  • Dislodged console at risk of detaching from housing
  • Missing clip leaving an open mounting point

This OEM Whirlpool replacement clip is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Console Clip (Part Number: OEM18038181)

1 Answer

Gwen, When installing the clips you will need to put the clips on the control panel.

Once in place then it will clip into the main top.
