By: Whirlpool

Part Number: OEM18038973

Manufacturer Part Number: WP8536939

The Knob Spring Clip is an OEM part for Whirlpool appliances, specifically designed for use in washers and dryers. This small but essential component is responsible for securing the control knob to the control panel, ensuring that the knob stays firmly in place during operation.

Common causes of a bad spring clip include frequent use, accidental impacts, or wear and tear over time. A faulty spring clip can result in the control knob becoming loose or falling off, making it difficult to operate the appliance.

Symptoms of a bad knob spring clip include:

The control knob is loose or wobbly
The control knob falls off easily
Difficulty in turning or setting the control knob
The appliance not responding correctly to knob adjustments

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

Louis September 20, 2021 for Model Number Whirlpool washer MOD WTW4616FW0

My Whirlpool washer MOD WTW4616FW0 final spin green light keeps flashing and will not turn off even with the red Light on (Cycle completed). I can still open the lid. I closed the breaker at my electrical panel (instead of pulling the washer to reach the 110v outlet) to somehow obtain a 'reset' with no results, the green light is still flashing. The washer is only 3-years old. Is there a 'reset' button somewhere?

1 Answer

Louis, You will need to locate the tech sheet that is found on the inside wall of the washer under the top in the front left corner. Read how to enter diagnostics to retrieve the error codes and follow the steps for testing that part.

Geneva December 16, 2019

What are the exact outer dimensions of this clip? I think it will work with a whirlpool stove knob, but it must be an exact fit. Thank you, Geneva

1 Answer

Hello Geneva, we cannot practically measure that clip due to its small size also the manufacturer does not supply that information.

Karen July 21, 2018 for Model Number Kenmore gas range 79077442803

This looks like the D-shaped insert I need for the knob on my gas range - any chance you think it would fit? I watched the video and it looks very similar but the hole for the insert on my knob is more round than the D-shaped one shown on the know in the video yet the other inserts are D-shaped.

1 Answer

Karen, It appears that this clip may work for the unit but the best way to get what is needed would be to get the burner knob 316442512.
