• Test the light function after installation to ensure proper fit and operation

This high-limit thermostat is a safety temperature limiter that stops heating when temperatures climb too high, protecting the appliance and preventing overheating. Use it to restore proper temperature cutoff and improve safe operation. What it does

• Acts as a temperature safety cutoff to interrupt power when temps exceed safe limits
• Prevents continuous heating and reduces fire/overheat risk
• Can cause loss of heat, no heating cycles, or oven/range failing to reach temperature when faulty
• Restores the appliance's built-in over-temperature protection when replaced

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Located behind panels or at the heating assembly; access may require removing exterior panels
• Verify electrical continuity with a multimeter before installation

This lower dishwasher spray arm circulates and directs pressurized water throughout the dishwasher basin to help clean dishes and cookware more evenly. Replacing a worn or damaged spray arm restores spray coverage and reduces spotting. What it does:

• Rotates and distributes water from the lower wash pump to reach bottom and mid-level racks
• Helps remove food soils and rinse away detergent residue for better cleaning results
• Worn, cracked, or clogged spray arms can cause poor cleaning, uneven results, or loud operation
• Compatible with standard lower spray arm mounts and spray patterns for many Whirlpool-style dishwashers

• One lower spray arm

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair
• Remove the lower rack to access and replace the spray arm; hand-tighten retaining nut or clip per OEM guidance
• Inspect for retained debris or mineral buildup in the spray holes and clean before installation
• Do not overtighten plastic fasteners; test a short cycle to ensure proper rotation and no leaks

This transformer converts incoming mains power to the low-voltage supply your appliance's control board needs, restoring reliable control and display operation. It's a direct-replacement component for worn or failed transformers. What it does:

• Provides the low-voltage power feed used by the control board and user interface
• Stops intermittent or complete loss of display or control responsiveness
• Prevents erratic cycling or failure to start when the control supply is interrupted
• Helps eliminate buzzing or overheating caused by a failing transformer

• One replacement transformer (exact part number required for compatibility)

• Disconnect all power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Note or photograph original wiring and connector locations for correct reassembly
• Handle with care; avoid touching terminals while energized and secure all covers
• Replace with the exact OEM part number to ensure correct voltage and fit

This support is a replacement mounting bracket that secures internal components and restores proper alignment and stability. It helps reduce vibration and prevents loose or sagging parts for safer, quieter operation. What it does:

• Provides a rigid mounting point to hold internal assemblies in place
• Restores correct alignment when panels or components sit unevenly
• Reduces vibration or rattling caused by a broken or missing support
• Helps prevent additional wear on adjoining parts by keeping components stable

• One support mounting bracket

• Recommended for repair by someone comfortable with appliance disassembly
• Disconnect power (and water, if applicable) before starting any repair
• Keep track of mounting hardware and gaskets removed during replacement
• Inspect adjacent parts for wear when installing this support and replace as needed

This thermostat retainer secures the refrigerator thermostat or temperature sensor in place to ensure accurate temperature sensing and stable operation. It replaces a worn or broken mounting clip to restore proper sensor positioning. What it does:

• Holds the thermostat/temperature sensor firmly against the evaporator or designated mounting point
• Prevents sensor movement that can cause erratic temperature readings or cooling issues
• Maintains correct sensor alignment for reliable refrigerator temperature control
• Helps reduce vibration and wear on the thermostat assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Access may require removing interior panels or trim; keep fasteners organized
• Handle the thermostat and sensor carefully to avoid damaging the sensing element or wiring

This oven temperature sensor detects internal oven temperature so the control can regulate heating for even cooking and accurate bake cycles. Replaces a failed or intermittent sensor to restore proper temperature control. What it does

• Senses oven cavity temperature and sends readings to the control board
• Can cause oven to run too hot, too cool, or display temperature-related errors when failing
• Often used when bake/broil cycles are inconsistent or the oven won't reach set temperatures
• Works as the temperature feedback component for electronic oven controls

• Disconnect power to the appliance before testing or replacing the sensor
• Handle the sensor probe and wiring gently; avoid pulling on wires or kinking the lead
• Verify replacement by visually inspecting connections and testing continuity with a multimeter

This lamp holder secures and powers the oven/cabinet G4-base bulb so interior lighting works reliably and safely. It restores proper bulb contact and helps prevent flickering or intermittent lighting. What it does:

• Holds the G4-base light bulb in place and provides the electrical connection
• Restores interior lighting when the socket is loose, corroded, or damaged
