• Prevents the control from rotating or shifting when the knob is turned
• Replace if the original nut is missing, stripped, rounded, or corroded
• Common signs: loose or wobbly knob, switch spins in the panel, or misaligned knob indexing

• Disconnect power; for gas appliances, also shut off gas before servicing
• Pull off the knob and any trim; support the control body from behind the panel while removing/installing the nut
• Start the new nut by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly with the correct-size wrench—do not overtighten
• The control sits square in the panel and the knob operates smoothly before restoring power

The lid switch lever connects the washer's lid hinge to the lid switch, signaling when the lid is closed so the cycle can run. A damaged lever can prevent the safety interlock from closing, leading to no-start or spin issues. What it does:

• Transfers lid movement at the hinge to the lid switch actuator
• A closed lid so the washer can operate
• Common symptoms of a failed lever: washer won't start; won't spin; cycle pauses because the lid-closed signal isn't detected

• 1 lid switch lever

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Lift or open the top to access the hinge/switch area; locate the lever near the lid switch
• Remove the old lever and install the new one in the same orientation; free movement
• Close the lid by hand and the switch clicks before reassembly and testing

This door handle pad sits between the handle standoffs and the door panel. Replacing a worn or missing pad cushions and stabilizes the handle, helps reduce rattles, and protects the door finish at the handle mounting points. What it does:

• Cushions handle-to-door contact to help prevent scuffs and wear
• Helps stabilize the handle and maintain proper spacing/alignment
• Reduces vibration and rattling during door operation
• Replaces a missing, flattened, or deteriorated pad

• 1 door handle pad

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove handle mounting screws and note the original pad's placement/orientation
• Position the new pad and reinstall the handle; do not overtighten screws
• The handle is secure and the door opens/closes smoothly

This convection fan element mounts on the oven's rear wall around the blower. It supplies supplemental electric heat so the fan can circulate hot air evenly during convection modes for more consistent baking and roasting.

• Provides heat directly around the convection fan to help maintain even temperature during convection cycles
• Failure can cause poor browning, uneven results on multiple racks, or convection modes that run without proper heating
• May show visible breaks, blistering, or burnt spots; an open element will fail a continuity check
• If standard bake heats normally but convection bake does not, this element may be at fault

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool completely before servicing
• Remove oven racks and the rear interior panel to access the element surrounding the fan
• Note wire positions; transfer any spacers or mounting hardware from the original element as needed
• Secure the element without bending it and confirm the fan spins freely with proper clearance

Single unit. Includes foot pad.

This dryer blower cover encloses the blower wheel and seals the housing so air moves efficiently from the lint screen to the exhaust. Replacing a cracked or missing cover restores airflow for consistent drying performance and helps keep lint contained.

• Covers the blower wheel and seals the blower housing
• Directs air from the lint screen through the exhaust duct
• Helps maintain proper airflow and drying performance
• Damage or gaps may cause reduced airflow, longer dry times, vibration/noise, or lint leaking inside the cabinet

• Unplug dryer and let components cool before servicing
• Access the blower housing; front or rear access varies by model
• Clean lint from housing and ducts; inspect the blower wheel and any gasket/seal
• Seat cover squarely and tighten fasteners evenly; verify the blower turns freely and no air leaks are present
