• Controls the amount and direction of airflow to maintain set temperatures
• Helps reduce warm spots or over-cooling in the fresh food compartment
• A cracked, missing, or misaligned baffle may lead to a warm refrigerator while the freezer stays cold
• Air leaks or obstruction at the baffle can cause frost or unusual air noise near the vent

• 1 air baffle assembly

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove shelves and the interior vent/diffuser cover to access the baffle
• Retain and transfer any screws, clips, or seals from the original part as required
• Seat the new baffle fully so the seal engages evenly; reassemble and verify airflow

The Screw is an OEM part compatible with Whirlpool dryers. This screw connects the back panel to the side panel, ensuring the dryer cabinet is securely assembled. It plays an integral role in maintaining the structural integrity of the dryer housing.

Symptoms of a bad screw can include loosening, corrosion, or breakage over time and use. This can compromise the bond between panels and weaken the overall dryer frame.  

Causes of a bad screw include:

• Repeated expansion and contraction from heat cycles  
• Vibrations loosening the connection point
• Stress or cracks developing at the screw head or threads

These issues can lead to:

• Gaps appearing between panels
• Components like controls detaching from the housing
• Cabinet unable to withstand pressure changes  

This OEM Whirlpool replacement screw is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

• Helps keep the drawer/bin aligned and prevents wobble or sagging
• Replaces a damaged or missing LH endcap that allows the rail to loosen or detach

• Disconnect power and remove the affected bin/shelf before servicing
• Release tabs or remove screws to detach the rail/trim; transfer any hardware from the old endcap
• Orient left-hand as viewed from the front of the appliance; snap or fasten into place
• Reinstall components and check alignment and movement
