• Replaces a defective timer that prevents the appliance from starting or advancing through cycles.
• Helps stop intermittent or stalled cycles caused by a worn or burned timer mechanism.
• Restores predictable automatic cycle progression when the original timer fails.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electric shock.
• Verify the part number and match the connector/wiring before removing the old timer.
• Take photos of wiring and panel placement to ensure correct reassembly.

Right handed Hinge

This lint screen lid hinge connects the dryer's lint lid to its mounting point, allowing smooth, aligned opening and secure closing. Replacing a bent or broken hinge restores proper lid operation and helps keep lint contained in the trap.

• Provides the pivot point for the lint screen lid/cover
• Helps the lid sit flush and stay aligned when closed
• Symptoms of a failed hinge can include a loose or misaligned lid, difficulty opening/closing, or squeaking/binding at the hinge
• Replace when the hinge is bent, cracked, or missing

• Disconnect power before servicing; sharp cabinet edges—wear cut-resistant gloves
• Support the lint lid to avoid bending or scratching
• Remove the mounting screws, note the hinge orientation, and transfer the new hinge in the same position
• After reassembly, cycle the lid open/closed to ensure smooth operation before restoring power

This strike is the latch receiver the door or lid engages when closed. Replacing a worn or broken strike restores a secure close and ensures the control correctly senses a closed door so cycles can run. What it does:

• Provides the fixed catch point for the latch mechanism
• Keeps the door/lid closed and properly aligned during operation
• Works with the interlock/switch to signal that the door/lid is closed
• Common symptoms: door won't latch or pops open, "door/lid open" message, cycle won't start, visible damage to the strike

• 1 strike

• Disconnect electrical power to the appliance; shut off water if applicable
• Open the door/lid and remove the original strike (typically secured by screws or retaining tabs)
• Position and secure the new strike, reusing original hardware; tighten snugly without over-tightening
• Close and open the door/lid to confirm smooth latch engagement and alignment; adjust if needed

This retainer clip secures a component in place to prevent movement and maintain proper alignment during appliance operation. Replacing a damaged or missing clip helps restore safe, reliable performance.

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water before servicing
• Note original clip orientation and location before removal
• Use needle-nose pliers to carefully release and install the clip
• Do not over-bend the clip; replace if deformed or fatigued

This rotary on/off switch controls the dryer's Finish Guard (also called Wrinkle Guard/Wrinkle Shield) feature. Replacing it restores proper control of the post-cycle intermittent tumbling that helps reduce wrinkles, preventing the feature from being stuck on or off.

• Provides 2-position on/off selection for the Finish Guard/Wrinkle Guard function
• Failure can cause the feature not to engage or to stay on after the cycle ends
• Knob may feel loose or fail to click when the switch is worn
• Mounts in the control console and interfaces with the external selector knob

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access through the control console; remove paneling as needed
• Transfer wires one at a time or photograph connections for reference
• Reinstall using the existing knob and mounting hardware

This Heater Box Bracket secures the dryer's heater housing to the cabinet, keeping the heating assembly firmly mounted and aligned. Replace a bent, cracked, or missing bracket to restore stable support and reduce vibration around the heater area.

• Anchors the heater housing/box to the cabinet frame
• Maintains proper alignment and clearance for the heating element assembly
• Helps prevent rattling or rubbing noises from a loose heater housing
• A damaged bracket may leave the heater housing loose, cause vibration, or contribute to intermittent heating issues

• Disconnect power; if gas, shut off gas supply and allow the unit to cool completely
• Access the heater housing; note bracket orientation and reuse existing fasteners
• Support the heater housing and keep wiring clear while removing/installing the bracket
• After installation, verify the housing sits square and clear of the drum and wiring before restoring power

Replacement bulkhead that supports the front of the dryer drum and helps maintain correct drum alignment and airflow. Restores stable drum rotation and reduces rubbing, noise, and air leaks for more reliable drying performance. What it does:

• Supports the front of the dryer drum and provides a mounting point for the front drum seal/bearing.
• Helps maintain proper drum alignment to prevent rubbing, wobbling, or uneven wear.
• Seals the front of the cabinet to help direct airflow through the drum and vent system.
• Commonly replaced when customers experience loud rubbing noises, visible drum misalignment, or air leaks from the front of the dryer.

• Turn off and disconnect electrical power and shut off gas supply before servicing.
• Installation typically requires removing the dryer front panel and drum; have the correct tools available and work on a flat surface.
• Inspect seals, bearing, and mounting hardware while replacing the bulkhead and replace any worn components.

This replacement key restores operation of a factory-installed lock on select appliances, letting you securely lock or unlock a door, lid, or compartment when the original key is lost or damaged. What it does:

• Operates the keyed lock cylinder to lock and unlock the appliance compartment
• Restores access when the original key is missing, bent, or broken
• Helps keep contents secure by re-enabling the lock function

• Insert fully and turn gently—do not force the cylinder
• If the lock is stiff, clean the keyway; use only manufacturer-approved lubricants if needed
• Disconnect power before any related service; keep the key out of children's reach

Color: White. This is a one piece dryer timer knob and dial assembly.

This motor connector housing is the molded body that holds the motor's wire terminals for a secure, insulated connection. Replacing a cracked or heat-damaged housing helps restore reliable motor operation and prevent intermittent power issues.
