The Thermostat Housing is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It encases the thermostat responsible for accurately monitoring water temperatures throughout cleaning cycles. 

Symptoms of a faulty housing include:

• Inconsistent or improper water heating  
• Delayed or incomplete cycles from temperature control issues
• Error codes or failure detection by the control board

Causes may involve cracks allowing steam penetration, loose mounting points compromising seals, or damaged seals leaking interior thermostat components. 

This OEM replacement fits Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and some Kenmore models as well.

This 9/32" ratcheting retainer secures mating components in place, providing a reliable spring-lock connection that resists loosening from vibration. Use it to restore proper fit where the original retainer has worn or broken. What it does:

• Holds shafts, rods, or assemblies securely in position using a ratcheting/spring clip action
• Prevents side-to-side movement and reduces rattling or misalignment
• Commonly replaced when the original clip is bent, cracked, or no longer grips tightly
• Works as a direct-fit replacement to restore intended component retention

• Basic hand tools may be required; handle the clip carefully to avoid pinching
• Wear eye protection—spring clips can release suddenly during removal/installation
• Ensure mating parts are aligned before seating the retainer for a secure fit
• If other fasteners or damaged parts are found, inspect and replace as needed
