This drain valve controls the flow of water out of the appliance to remove standing water and prevent overflow. Replacing a faulty valve restores normal draining and helps stop pooling or persistent drain error symptoms. What it does:

• Opens and closes to release water from the appliance drain path.
• Works with the pump/drain line to move water out during cycles.
• Common issues indicating failure: appliance won't drain, water pooling, or intermittent drain errors.
• Fits as the direct replacement component for the OEM valve in affected models.

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before starting work.
• Expect residual water in hoses; have towels and a pan ready to catch spills.
• Remove and replace using basic hand tools; keep clamps and seals secure to avoid leaks.

This dome float is the replacement water-level float that helps the appliance sense and control the tub's water level, restoring reliable fill and shutoff behavior. Use this OEM-fit float when the original is cracked, stuck, or missing. What it does:

• Moves with rising and falling water to actuate the water-level mechanism and help prevent overfilling.
• Can reduce symptoms such as improper fill levels, continuous filling, or intermittent fill shutoff when the existing float is damaged or obstructed.
• Works as part of the washer's water sensing system—does not include electronic switches or housings unless shown.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before starting any repair.
• Access may require removing the washer top or cabinet; follow your model's service instructions.
• Inspect surrounding hoses and clips; replace any damaged components and ensure the float moves freely.

This is an electrically operated water inlet valve that controls the flow of water into the dishwasher during the wash and rinse cycles.

This vent flapper is the exterior exhaust flap that opens to let dryer air and lint exit and closes to keep weather, pests and drafts out when the dryer is off. It restores proper airflow at the outside vent hood. What it does:

• Opens with dryer airflow to allow exhaust to escape and closes when idle to block outside air.
• Helps prevent backdrafts, pests and rain from entering the vent system.
• Can restore normal drying performance when a stuck or broken flap was restricting airflow.
• Commonly replaced when the flap is cracked, warped, jammed or does not seal.

• One vent flapper/exterior exhaust flap.

• Disconnect power to the dryer (and gas supply if applicable) and work from the outside hood when possible.
• Remove the exterior vent hood or access cover to inspect and replace the flap; basic hand tools required.
• Check that the flap moves freely after installation and seats against its seal to prevent air leaks.
• Clean or repair the ductwork to avoid repeat failures.
