Note: This is the vertical bar connector.
 

This replacement hinge supports and pivots the appliance door so it opens and closes smoothly while staying aligned for a proper seal. Replacing a worn or bent hinge restores consistent door action and helps prevent latch and sealing issues.

• Provides the pivot point that allows the door to open and close
• Maintains door alignment so the latch and gasket engage correctly
• Helps prevent sagging, rubbing, and poor sealing
• Common symptoms: drooping or loose door, difficulty closing, binding/squeaking, visible damage

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow any hot surfaces to cool
• Support the door during removal/installation to prevent damage or injury
• Transfer any spacers, bushings, or screws from the old hinge
• After installation, verify door alignment and gasket contact; adjust per service information if needed

This door gasket forms a watertight seal between the appliance's tub opening and the door, keeping wash water contained during operation. Replacing a worn seal helps stop leaks and protects floors and nearby cabinetry. What it does:

• Creates a tight, water-resistant seal around the door opening
• Replaces a torn, cracked, flattened, or deformed gasket that can leak
• Common symptoms: drips from the door area, puddles at the front corners, visible damage or mildew on the seal
• Restores proper door compression and helps prevent moisture/steam from escaping

• 1 door gasket

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the old gasket and thoroughly clean the channel and mating surfaces
• Seat the new gasket evenly; ensure it is fully pressed into its channel (some models use retaining bands or clips—transfer and reinstall as removed)
• Close the door to check for uniform contact, then run a short cycle to verify no leaks

The Screw is an OEM part for LG dryers. This screw secures the front panel to the outer housing, ensuring a properly assembled unit.

Causes of a bad screw can include stripping of threads from over-tightening, loss of the screw from repeated access to internal components, or damage such as cracking from dropping or other impact.

Symptoms of a bad front panel screw include:

• Loose, detached, or missing front panel assembly
• Accessibility issues opening or closing the dryer door
• Reduced stability of the overall dryer cabinet structure

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.

Locker hook secures the appliance door or access panel so it stays closed during operation. Replacing a worn or broken hook restores reliable latching and prevents the door from popping open or causing noise. What it does:

• Engages with the catch or striker to hold the door/panel closed during cycles.
• Restores proper door latching and alignment for normal operation.
• Common symptoms: door won't stay closed, rattling or intermittent latching, or door popping open.
• Small replacement part used in the latch area of the cabinet or door assembly.

• Always disconnect power (and water if applicable) before servicing the appliance.
• Access the latch area by opening or removing the door/access panel per the service manual.
• Remove and save any fasteners or clips; install the new hook in the same orientation and secure all fasteners.

The Water Valve is an OEM part for LG dryers. This valve controls the water supply to the dryer's steam setting which helps reduce wrinkles and refresh clothing.

Causes of failure can be mineral buildup overtime restricting flow, damage from freezing during winter months, or worn internal seals and mechanisms.

Symptoms of a bad water valve include:

• Inability to select or utilize the steam cycle
• Drips or leaks at the water inlet port
• Erratic water pressure during steam cycles
• Steam levels that fluctuate or cut off unexpectedly

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.

This replacement holder secures a small appliance component in place to restore proper alignment and reduce vibration. It's a direct-fit bracket designed to hold components steady and prevent movement that can cause noise or malfunction. What it does:

• Keeps the associated component firmly mounted to its chassis or support
• Prevents rattling, misalignment, or intermittent contact caused by a damaged or missing holder
• Helps maintain proper operation of the component it supports
• Common symptoms: visible crack or break in the holder, loose or shifting component, or new noise from the area

• One replacement holder as shown

• Disconnect power and/or water supply before beginning any repair
• Inspect surrounding parts for damage before installing the new holder
• Basic hand tools are typically required; avoid overtightening fasteners

Note: This is the horizontal bar connector.

This connector nozzle attaches to the appliance's nozzle assembly to route fluid through the system and help maintain a sealed connection. It replaces a worn or cracked nozzle connector to restore proper flow and reduce leaks. What it does:

• Provides a secure connection point for the nozzle assembly, directing fluid through the correct pathway
• Restores a sealed joint to prevent drips or steady leaks at the nozzle area
• Helps eliminate flow interruptions caused by a cracked, split, or damaged connector
• Works as a direct-fit replacement when the original connector is broken or degraded

• One connector nozzle

• Turn off power and shut off the water supply before starting any repair
• Remove only the components necessary to access the nozzle area; use basic hand tools
• Check seals and adjoining hoses for wear and replace if needed to ensure a leak-free connection

Replacement main control printed circuit board that manages the appliance's power distribution and system-level controls, restoring electronic control over functions. Use this board when the original PCB fails, causing power or control problems. What it does

• Regulates power to motors, valves and sensors and routes signals between components
• Runs the user interface and processes inputs from buttons, dials and sensors
• Commonly linked to symptoms such as no power, blank or erratic display, unresponsive controls or recurring error codes
• Helps stop intermittent operation, random resets or failure to start when the PCB is defective

• Disconnect all power before servicing to avoid shock or damage
• Handle the PCB by the edges and avoid static discharge; use proper ESD precautions

This hinge bracket secures the door hinge assembly to the cabinet, restoring proper door support and alignment for smooth opening and a tight seal. Use it when the hinge area is cracked, worn, or no longer holding the door square. What it does

• Supports and anchors the door hinge so the door stays aligned and closes properly
• Replaces a cracked, broken, or worn bracket that causes door sag or misalignment
• Helps stop rubbing, gaps, and uneven sealing caused by a loose or damaged hinge area
• Works as a direct-fit structural part for the hinge assembly on compatible LG units

• One hinge bracket

• Disconnect power to the appliance and empty the door before starting; have a helper support the door during removal/installation
• Use the correct screwdriver/socket size to remove and reinstall mounting fasteners; do not overtighten
• Inspect hinge pins, screws, and surrounding mounting points; replace any damaged hardware
• After installation, verify door alignment and seal; adjust hinge position if needed following OEM guidance
