Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Top Door Hinge (Butt Hinge Assembly) (Part Number: OEM18020682)

1 Answer

Bruce, With the bottom hinge making this noise it would have nothing to do with the top hinge. You will want to check to see if there are any screws or anything dragging on the bottom hinge. Also check to make sure that there are 2 plastic washers on the bottom hinge. The washer part number would be WP487576.
