• 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 rear support assembly stabilizes the appliance's rear housing and helps keep internal components aligned for smooth operation and reduced vibration. It restores proper rear-end support to prevent rubbing, noise, and uneven motion. What it does:

• Provides a stable mounting point for the appliance's rear section to maintain alignment
• Reduces vibration and rattling caused by a loose or worn rear support
• Helps prevent rubbing, scraping, or grinding noises from misaligned components
• Restores proper fit between the rear housing and moving parts to promote smooth operation

• One rear support assembly

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before beginning any repair
• Access typically requires removing the appliance's rear panel or cabinet; follow OEM service manual steps
• Inspect surrounding mounting hardware and replace any worn fasteners for a secure fit

This switch retainer clip secures a small appliance switch in place so the switch stays aligned and operates correctly. It helps maintain reliable switch contact for normal door or control functions. What it does:

• Holds the door/control switch securely to prevent movement or misalignment
• Helps ensure consistent on/off contact for the related switch
• Can prevent intermittent operation or failure caused by a loose switch
• Small plastic/metal retainer designed for exact OEM fit in the switch assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electric shock
• Typically installs by snapping or sliding onto the switch or bracket; no special tools usually required
• Inspect surrounding switch and wiring for damage; replace if wiring or switch is compromised

This genuine replacement screw secures appliance panels and trim so covers, consoles, and components stay firmly in place for safe, quiet operation. It replaces worn or missing fasteners to restore proper fit and reduce vibration and rattling. What it does:

• Secures control panels, trim pieces, or access panels to the appliance frame
• Keeps panels aligned to prevent gaps and light leaks
• Reduces vibration-related noise from loose panels or components
• Helps maintain safe operation by keeping covers and guards properly attached

• The replacement screw shown/listed

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit to avoid stripping the head
• Start the screw by hand to ensure proper thread engagement, then tighten securely but do not overtighten

Felt pad.

Right hand side. For the drum glide and felt pad order LA-1006.

This idler spring maintains proper tension on the dryer drum belt by keeping the idler pulley engaged. Replacing a weak or broken spring restores consistent drum rotation and helps prevent belt slippage and squealing during operation.

• Maintains belt tension by pulling the idler arm/pulley against the drum belt
• Helps the motor start and keep the drum turning smoothly
• Reduces belt slippage that can cause squealing or chirping
• Common symptoms of a failed spring: drum won't turn or turns intermittently; belt comes off or feels loose; loud squeal from idler area

• Disconnect power; for gas dryers, shut off the gas supply
• Access the idler assembly; relieve belt tension and note belt/spring routing before removal
• Attach the new spring to the same holes/orientation on the idler arm and base; verify belt path
• Rotate the drum by hand to confirm alignment and tension before reassembly

This idler arm assembly keeps the dryer drive belt under proper tension so the drum turns smoothly. Replacing a worn idler restores belt tracking and reduces noise from a failing tensioner. What it does:

• Holds and tensions the dryer drive belt to maintain proper belt tracking
• Keeps the belt aligned on the drum and motor pulley to prevent slipping
• Worn or seized idler can cause squealing, grinding, or premature belt wear
• A failed idler may lead to belt damage or the drum not turning properly

• Disconnect power (and gas supply for gas dryers) before beginning any repair
• Access may require removing the dryer front panel or drum—follow your model's service instructions
• Support the drum and belt while removing the old idler to avoid damage
• Inspect the belt, motor pulley, and rollers while replacing the idler; replace worn components as needed

Seal assembly replaces the washer's front tub seal to prevent water from leaking around the cylinder, helping stop puddles under the machine and protecting internal components from water exposure. What it does:

• Forms a watertight seal between the front of the tub/cylinder and the outer housing.
• Helps stop leaks that occur during fill, wash, or spin cycles; replacement commonly resolves visible water at the front/base of the washer.
• Use when the seal shows cracks, tears, hardening, or other visible damage.
• Replacement restores proper sealing to help protect bearings and electronics from water intrusion.

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing.
• Replacement typically requires front access and partial disassembly of the tub/cabinet; follow the manufacturer service manual and use appropriate tools.
• Clean and inspect the mating surfaces and the shaft for wear or contamination before installing the new seal.
• If you find bearing noise, oil residue, or extensive corrosion, consider replacing affected components.

This push-in plug button is a small replacement cap that covers and seals an unused opening or socket on compatible appliances, keeping the area clean and helping prevent debris and moisture entry. What it does:

• Covers an unused plug hole or access port to block dust, dirt, and moisture.
• Provides a finished appearance by hiding raw openings in panels or control housings.
• Helps keep internal components protected from contaminants that can affect operation.
• Snaps into place for a secure fit without adhesives.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing panels or openings.
• Typically installs by pressing into the opening until it snaps flush; no special tools required.
• Verify correct fit and orientation before final reassembly.
• If panel damage is present or the button does not seat securely, inspect mating opening or surrounding clips.
