• Helps keep the mounted piece properly seated and aligned
• Common symptoms of failure: audible rattle, loose/wobbly component, missing or deformed clip
• Simple, drop-in replacement where the original clip is used

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Note the original clip's orientation; transfer the new clip the same way
• Use needle-nose pliers for placement; avoid over-bending the clip
• The component is secure and clears adjacent parts before reassembly

The Water Inlet Hose directs household water from the inlet valve into the appliance's internal water path, supporting proper fill operation. Replacing a worn or cracked hose helps prevent leaks and protects nearby components. What it does:

• Routes water from the inlet valve to the internal fill channel
• Helps maintain a watertight connection under normal water pressure
• Common symptoms: water on the floor during fill, dripping at the rear/base, slow or incomplete fills, visible cracking or bulging on the hose
• Helps resolve fill-related error codes caused by leaks or air intrusion

• 1 water inlet hose

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Keep towels or a shallow pan handy to catch residual water
• Transfer and secure existing clamps/fittings; ensure the hose is fully seated and clamps are snug
• Restore water and power, then run a test fill to check for leaks

This water inlet hose routes water from the inlet valve to the appliance's fill path, keeping delivery controlled and leak-free. Replace a brittle, cracked, or clogged hose to stop leaks and restore reliable filling performance.

• Directs water from the inlet valve to the internal fill system
• Maintains a sealed, kink-resistant path to prevent leaks
• Helps the appliance achieve proper water flow/level during operation
• Common symptoms of a failed hose: visible cracks/bulges, leaking, dampness beneath unit, slow or no fill, fill-related error codes

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Place towels or a shallow pan to catch residual water
• Note routing and clamp positions; transfer existing clamps/fittings as designed for your model
• Restore water slowly and check all connections under pressure; run a test fill to verify no leaks

This cap fits over the siphon break fitting in a drain system, helping contain splashes and seal the opening so the break can work as intended. Replace a cracked, loose, or missing cap to stop leaks and maintain proper drainage.

• Covers and seals the siphon break body/fitting
• Helps prevent water leakage or spray at the break during drain
• Supports proper anti-siphon/backflow operation of the drain path
• Typical signs include leaking at the break, a cap that won't stay on, or visible cracks

• Disconnect power; shut off water if working near hoses
• Access the siphon break and remove the old/damaged cap
• Clean the mating area; install the new cap and hand-tighten—do not overtighten
• Run a short fill/drain and check for leaks

This screw grommet anchors a screw in thin appliance panels so trim, covers, or consoles stay tight. It provides a snug, vibration-damping fit where a standard screw could loosen or strip over time.

• Creates a captive insert so a screw can securely fasten to sheet metal or plastic panels
• Replaces a worn, cracked, or missing grommet to restore proper screw retention
• Helps reduce panel rattles and movement from vibration
• Typical signs of failure: screw won't tighten, panel or trim feels loose, grommet falls out

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water as applicable before servicing
• Remove the screw and lift out the old grommet; clear debris from the opening
• Press the new grommet straight into the hole until fully seated and flush
• Reinstall the screw and tighten gently to avoid deforming the grommet

Size: 10-16 x 5/8 inch.

This front foot assembly is the adjustable leveling leg located at the front of the appliance. It supports and stabilizes the cabinet so it sits square and level, helping prevent rocking, vibration, and poor door alignment.

• Provides front support and height adjustment to level the unit
• Helps reduce rocking, vibration, and rattling during operation
• Replaces a worn, broken, missing, or stripped front foot
• Helps ensure doors or drawers align and close properly when leveled

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off water/gas before servicing
• Protect flooring; carefully tip or brace the appliance to access the front foot
• Unthread the old foot; thread in the new foot and adjust until level side-to-side and front-to-back
• Verify stability, then restore utilities and recheck for level

This replacement blower wheel restores proper airflow by moving air through the appliance's blower housing and out the exhaust. A worn or stripped wheel can cause weak ventilation, vibration, and noisy operation.

• Attaches to the motor shaft and spins to move air through the blower housing and ducting
• Maintains steady airflow for efficient appliance performance and ventilation
• Typical failure signs: reduced airflow at the exhaust, rattling/scraping noises, wobble on the shaft, or cracked/missing fins
• Helps resolve vibration from an out-of-balance or damaged wheel

• Disconnect power; turn off gas supply before servicing
• Access the blower housing; remove debris and inspect seals before installation
• Transfer any reusable retainer, nut, clip, or set screw from the old wheel as required by your model
• Seat the wheel fully and secure per your model design (e.g., reverse-thread, retainer, or set screw); verify free rotation and clearance before reassembly

Almond. Size: 13 oz. can. Acrylic appliance paint.

This drain hose routes water from the drain pump out of the appliance during the drain cycle. Replacing a worn hose helps the unit empty properly and reduces the risk of leaks or water damage. What it does:

• Carries wastewater from the pump outlet to the household drain path
• Provides a sealed flow path to help prevent leaks and backflow
• Replace if cracked, brittle, swollen, kinked, or internally clogged
• Help resolve symptoms like standing water, slow/no drain, water on the floor, or a "long drain" error

• 1 drain hose

• Unplug the appliance and turn off water supply before service
• Expect residual water; use towels or a shallow pan
• Release and reinstall hose clamps securely; ensure full seating on fittings
• Route to avoid kinks or sharp bends; run a test drain and check for leaks

Includes drive tube spacer, "T" bearing and both shaft seals.

This adjustable buzzer kit replaces a failed or noisy mini buzzer to restore audible alerts for cycles, timers and notifications. Compact design lets the appliance signal you reliably when cycles finish or need attention. What it does:

• Produces audible tones for cycle end, timers and other appliance notifications
• Replaces buzzers that are silent, intermittent, weak or emitting erratic beeps
• Helps you hear and identify completed cycles and timed alerts
• Small, mountable unit that fits behind the control panel and connects to the control board

• One adjustable buzzer kit

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock risk
• Access may require removing the control panel; keep fasteners organized for reassembly

This brake release cam works with the washer's brake assembly to disengage the brake during spin and re-engage it at stop. Replacing a worn cam restores smooth basket spin and reduces squeal or grinding at spin transitions.

• Disengages the brake so the basket can spin; helps reapply the brake as the cycle ends
• Supports smooth starts and stops of the spin cycle
• Worn or damaged cams can cause no spin or intermittent spin
• Common symptoms include loud squeal/grinding at start/stop or a burning odor near the brake area

• Disconnect power (and water supply, if moving the washer) before service
• Access the brake/basket drive area; the brake spring is under tension—use caution and eye protection
• Note orientation of parts before removal; seat the new cam correctly
• After reassembly, run an empty spin test to verify operation
