This locking nut is used for many purposes on a range of machines including household appliances. This nut is often used for leg leveling for machines. It will help with vibrations from washers and dryers. If the nut is used for this purpose and goes missing or becomes damaged, it could cause the machine to vibrate more and seem louder.Nuts are made from metal and are built to last a long time. However, there can still be issues that arise. In some cases, the nuts might go missing if they become loose and the machine is moved. They could also corrode over time and need to be replaced. The replacement of the nut is typically a fast and simple repair.The nut is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced from the manufacturer. It can work with washers, dryers, and combo machines, and is compatible with models from Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, and Roper. The part is sold individually. Owners may want to have several on hand.

Rubber grommet for motor mount stud.

This 1-1/8 in wire retaining ring locks into a groove to secure components in place. It helps prevent parts from sliding off a shaft or shifting out of position so assemblies stay aligned and operate reliably.

• Holds components on a shaft or within a groove to prevent axial movement
• Maintains alignment of related parts in the assembly
• Common failure signs: ring is bent, missing, or won't stay seated
• Symptoms include loose or wobbly parts and rattling during operation

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Wear eye protection—retaining rings can spring free during removal
• Use appropriate snap-ring pliers or small picks to remove/install
• Ensure the ring is fully seated in the groove before reassembly and use

This thrust ring is a small spacer that controls end-play on a shaft or gear, keeping parts aligned and reducing friction. Replacing a worn ring restores smoother, quieter operation and helps prevent premature wear in the assembly.

• Maintains axial spacing and limits end-play in rotating assemblies
• Reduces friction and metal-to-metal contact between components
• Helps stabilize shafts/gears to minimize noise and vibration
• Replace if you notice scraping/grinding sounds, wobble, or visible wear on the old ring

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Refer to your model's parts diagram to confirm orientation and stack order with any spacers/washers
• Clean the shaft and mating surfaces; replace any companion parts that show severe wear
• After reassembly, check for smooth rotation and proper end-play before returning to service

This vacuum break is the washer's water-inlet anti-siphon fitting. It maintains a required air gap so the tub fills properly without drawing used water back into the supply, helping prevent leaks and backflow issues.

• Maintains an air gap at the inlet to prevent backflow/siphoning into household water lines
• Helps ensure consistent, unobstructed water flow into the tub
• Replaces a cracked, clogged, or leaking vacuum break at the fill area
• Common symptoms include leaks from the rear/top during fill, visible cracks, or restricted/noisy fill

• Unplug the appliance and shut off both water supplies before servicing
• Access the fill/inlet area; note hose routing and part orientation
• Remove hose clamps/hoses and the old vacuum break; install the new part and secure clamps
• Restore water and power, then run a fill test and check carefully for leaks

This is a replacement power cord that supplies electrical power from a wall outlet to your appliance. A fresh cord helps ensure safe, reliable power delivery when the original is damaged, overheated, or worn.

• Delivers household power to the unit's main electrical connection
• Replace if the cord is cut, cracked, burnt, loose, or intermittently powers the appliance
• Helps resolve issues like no power, tripping breakers, or visible cord damage

• Unplug the appliance and turn off the circuit breaker before starting
• Verify outlet type and cord routing match your original installation
• Transfer any cord clamp/retainer as needed and secure against sharp edges
• Inspect for proper grounding and test operation before returning to service

This washer timer knob attaches to the timer shaft so you can select cycles and start the machine. Replace a cracked, stripped, or missing knob to restore positive engagement and reliable cycle selection.

• Engages the timer shaft to choose wash cycles and settings
• Restores proper feel and control when turning the timer
• Common symptoms: knob cracked or missing, spins without moving the timer, difficult to start or select a cycle
• If the timer can be turned with pliers but not with the knob, the knob is likely worn

• Unplug the washer before servicing
• Pull off the old knob; retain any cap or spring clip from the original if present
• Align the new knob with the timer shaft and press firmly until fully seated
• Rotate through settings to ensure solid engagement

This retainer ring is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer for use on front load washing machines to hold the boot seal in place. The boot seal is the gasket that seals the washing machine when the door is closed to prevent water from leaking. The retainer ring is located flush against the boot seal and has either a spring clamp or screw clamp that secures it. Over time, this ring may become damaged due to the washing machine's normal use and age. If the ring is not tight, the washing machine could leak when in use. If water is coming from the door, it is a good idea to inspect and replace the retainer ring and possibly the boot as well.Unplug the washing machine to prevent electrocution. Remove the front panel, the detergent dispenser, and the kickplate to access the retainer ring. Locate the clamp on the ring and loosen it. Remove the retainer ring and set it to the side. Inspect the boot and then install the new retainer ring. Tighten the clamp and reassemble the washing machine. This retainer ring is sold as an individual unit. It is designed specifically for washing machines manufactured by Whirlpool.

This motor retainer secures the motor to its mounting point, keeping the assembly tight and aligned. Replace a worn or broken retainer to cut vibration and noise and to protect nearby seals, wiring, and components. What it does:

• Holds the motor firmly in place within the assembly
• Maintains alignment for smooth, quiet operation
• Supports sealing surfaces and connections; on water-bearing assemblies, help prevent leaks
• Replace if you notice a loose or rattling motor, new vibration/noise, or signs of movement or leakage at the motor

• Includes 1 motor retainer.

• Disconnect power; turn off water supply.
• Access the motor area and support the motor before removing the old retainer.
• Inspect mating parts and seals; replace any damaged components.
• Fully seat the motor and install the new retainer securely; test for abnormal noise or leaks.

This anti-rattle screw secures panels or brackets to prevent vibration noise in compatible appliances. Replacing a missing or stripped screw restores a tight fit and helps keep the cabinet and assemblies stable and quiet.

• Secures brackets, ducts, or panels to reduce buzzing and rattling during operation
• Replaces a lost, worn, or damaged anti-rattle fastener
• Helps maintain proper alignment and prevents vibration-related wear
• Typical symptoms include persistent rattling, a loose panel, or hardware found inside the cabinet

• Disconnect power before servicing; for gas appliances, shut off the gas supply
• Access the mounting point and remove the loose or damaged screw
• Start the new screw by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening
• Repair or replace the bracket/clip before reassembly

Restore accurate cycle control with this washer timer. It sequences power to the drive motor, pump, and water inlet valves so the machine fills, washes, drains, and spins at the proper times.

• Advances the cycle through fill, wash, rinse, drain, and spin stages
• Sends power to the motor, pump, and inlet valves in the correct order and duration
• Safe symptoms: washer won't start, won't advance, stops mid-cycle, runs indefinitely, or skips rinse/spin
• Helps when cycles stall or the dial turns without moving the cycle forward

• Unplug the washer before servicing
• Open the control console to access the timer; note or photograph wiring
• Transfer wires one at a time to matching terminals on the new timer
• Reuse your existing knob/dial and mounting hardware; align the timer shaft before tightening

Push-in.
