The Snap Nut is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens and ranges. It is used to secure various components within the appliance, providing a reliable and easy-to-install fastening solution. The snap nut ensures that parts such as panels and assemblies remain firmly in place during operation.

Causes of a bad snap nut can include wear and tear from regular use, over-tightening during installation, or damage due to impacts or vibrations.

Symptoms of a bad snap nut include:

• Loose or wobbly components within the oven or range
• Parts not staying securely attached
• Unusual noises from vibrating or rattling parts during operation
• Difficulty in assembling or disassembling parts

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

This mounting clip secures a thermostat, temperature sensor, or capillary bulb in the correct position so it can sense temperature accurately and control the appliance. Replacing a damaged or missing clip helps prevent loose components and erratic readings. What it does:

• Holds the thermostat or sensor firmly against its mounting surface for proper thermal contact
• Helps maintain stable, accurate temperature regulation
• Replaces a bent, broken, or missing clip that won't hold securely
• Common symptoms include a dangling sensor/bulb, rattling, or inconsistent temperature response

• 1 clip

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) and allow the appliance to cool completely before service
• Access the thermostat/sensor area and note original orientation and routing
• Move the component into the new clip and secure it at the original mounting location
• Avoid kinking a capillary tube or damaging sensor leads; the clip is fully seated

This 10-24 threaded screw secures appliance components that use a #10 machine screw. It provides reliable fastening for panels, brackets, and assemblies so parts stay aligned and stable during normal use and service. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, or assemblies that accept a 10-24 machine screw
• Maintains alignment and structural connection under normal operating loads
• Replaces worn, stripped, or missing screws to restore secure mounting
• Works with sheet-metal and component mating nuts or threaded inserts commonly used in appliances

• One 10-24 threaded screw

• Power tools can be used; avoid overtightening to prevent stripped threads or damaged components
• Disconnect power and follow all safety steps for your appliance before servicing
• Ensure proper engagement and torque to avoid damage

This spacer fits between the inner and outer oven door glass panels to help maintain the correct gap and alignment for safe operation. It replaces a missing or damaged spacer to restore proper door assembly and appearance. What it does:

• Keeps the inner and outer door glass correctly spaced and aligned
• Helps prevent glass contact, rattling, and uneven sealing
• Supports proper door assembly after glass or panel replacement
• Addresses symptoms like loose or rattling door glass and misaligned panels

• One door glass spacer as shown

• High-level replacement only; follow the appliance's service manual for disassembly and reassembly steps
• Handle glass carefully and wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection
• Ensure power is disconnected before accessing the door assembly
• If door glass is cracked or damaged, replace glass panels per OEM instructions rather than relying solely on the spacer

This fan assembly circulates air through the appliance to support proper cooling and ventilation, restoring airflow and helping the unit maintain even temperatures and efficient operation. What it does:

• Moves air through the appliance to aid cooling, ventilation, or drying functions
• Helps prevent overheating by maintaining airflow across coils or heat sources
• Can reduce abnormal operating temperatures and airflow-related performance issues
• Restores proper fan operation when the original wheel or motor fails

• Disconnect power (and water, if applicable) before starting any repair
• Handle fan blades carefully to avoid damage or imbalance
• Inspect mounting hardware and wiring for wear; replace any damaged fasteners or connectors

This housing is the main metal enclosure that supports and protects the range hood's internal components, helping channel airflow and secure the blower and controls for reliable ventilation performance. What it does:

• Forms the structural enclosure for the range hood, holding the blower, filters, and controls in place
• Directs and channels exhaust airflow from the cooktop area into the ductwork
• Protects internal electrical and mechanical components from grease and debris
• Helps align and secure trim pieces, filters, and mounting hardware for a proper fit

• Installation requires accessing the hood interior and removing trim; keep power disconnected before starting
• May require two people for safe handling and alignment during mounting
• Use appropriate screws and fasteners for your model; replace any damaged clips or brackets
• If replacing after damage or corrosion, inspect adjacent parts (blower, filters, duct connectors) for wear
