Short baffle

This part is a moisture sensor control board that is used on dryer units. This component monitors the moisture levels within the dryer and adjusts the dry time during the automatic drying cycle. A new moisture sensor control board will be needed if the time is not advancing in the automatic drying cycle, even if it does advance in the timed dry cycle. Another sign is if the dryer continues to run after the clothing inside is dry. Unplug the dryer from its power source prior to replacing this component. The person performing this task may wish to wear work gloves to protect their hands.The moisture sensor control board is compatible with dryers that are manufactured by Kenmore, KitchenAid, Kenmore Elite, Whirlpool, Amana, Crosley, Maytag, Inglis, Sears Canada, Roper, and Sears. This part is sold individually and it is a genuine OEM replacement part that comes straight from the manufacturer.

This door spring restores the proper counterbalance of the oven door so it opens smoothly and closes with controlled tension. Replacing a worn or broken spring helps prevent the door from dropping, slamming, or sitting unevenly.

• Provides counterbalance tension for the oven door through the hinge mechanism
• Helps the door open smoothly and hold at a partially open position
• Maintains even alignment and consistent gasket contact
• Common symptoms of failure: door feels heavy, drops open or slams, uneven door height, squeaks during movement

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool completely
• Springs are under tension—support the door and use caution to avoid injury
• Note the spring's routing and anchor points before removal; reinstall in the same positions
• For even tension, consider replacing both door springs when the design uses one per side

This light socket holds the appliance bulb and provides a reliable electrical connection, restoring clear visibility inside your unit. Replace a cracked, heat-damaged, or loose socket to fix lights that flicker, go out, or won't stay seated.

• Secures the bulb and makes proper electrical contact with the wiring
• Powers the bulb when the control or door switch commands illumination
• Helps maintain consistent lighting during normal operation
• Typical symptoms: light won't turn on with a good bulb, flickers, intermittent lighting, burnt or brittle socket, bulb won't stay seated

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing; allow hot areas to cool
• Note wire locations and socket orientation; take a photo before removal
• Transfer any mounting screws/bracket from the old socket as needed
• Install the correct bulb type and wattage per your appliance manual; do not overtighten

This factory fastener secures appliance components and panels, helping keep assemblies properly aligned and tight. Replace worn, stripped, or missing hardware to eliminate looseness and vibration and maintain safe, reliable operation.

• Fastens brackets, panels, trim, and internal assemblies to the cabinet/frame
• Helps maintain alignment of doors, consoles, or covers
• Restores a tight fit to reduce rattling, vibration, or shifting
• Common symptoms: missing screw, stripped head/threads, loose panel or handle, recurring vibration/noise

• Disconnect power (and shut off gas/water if applicable) before servicing
• Match thread and length to the original fastener for proper fit
• Start threading by hand to avoid cross-threading; use the correct driver
• Do not overtighten into plastic or thin sheet metal

Right handed Hinge

This lint screen lid hinge connects the dryer's lint lid to its mounting point, allowing smooth, aligned opening and secure closing. Replacing a bent or broken hinge restores proper lid operation and helps keep lint contained in the trap.

• Provides the pivot point for the lint screen lid/cover
• Helps the lid sit flush and stay aligned when closed
• Symptoms of a failed hinge can include a loose or misaligned lid, difficulty opening/closing, or squeaking/binding at the hinge
• Replace when the hinge is bent, cracked, or missing

• Disconnect power before servicing; sharp cabinet edges—wear cut-resistant gloves
• Support the lint lid to avoid bending or scratching
• Remove the mounting screws, note the hinge orientation, and transfer the new hinge in the same position
• After reassembly, cycle the lid open/closed to ensure smooth operation before restoring power

This rotary on/off switch controls the dryer's Finish Guard (also called Wrinkle Guard/Wrinkle Shield) feature. Replacing it restores proper control of the post-cycle intermittent tumbling that helps reduce wrinkles, preventing the feature from being stuck on or off.

• Provides 2-position on/off selection for the Finish Guard/Wrinkle Guard function
• Failure can cause the feature not to engage or to stay on after the cycle ends
• Knob may feel loose or fail to click when the switch is worn
• Mounts in the control console and interfaces with the external selector knob

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access through the control console; remove paneling as needed
• Transfer wires one at a time or photograph connections for reference
• Reinstall using the existing knob and mounting hardware

Replacement bulkhead that supports the front of the dryer drum and helps maintain correct drum alignment and airflow. Restores stable drum rotation and reduces rubbing, noise, and air leaks for more reliable drying performance. What it does:

• Supports the front of the dryer drum and provides a mounting point for the front drum seal/bearing.
• Helps maintain proper drum alignment to prevent rubbing, wobbling, or uneven wear.
• Seals the front of the cabinet to help direct airflow through the drum and vent system.
• Commonly replaced when customers experience loud rubbing noises, visible drum misalignment, or air leaks from the front of the dryer.

• Turn off and disconnect electrical power and shut off gas supply before servicing.
• Installation typically requires removing the dryer front panel and drum; have the correct tools available and work on a flat surface.
• Inspect seals, bearing, and mounting hardware while replacing the bulkhead and replace any worn components.

This is a replacement gas valve for gas ranges and wall ovens that controls gas flow to the burner assembly, restoring proper ignition and heat control for appliance operation. Use when the burner won't light or won't stay lit. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to oven/burner assemblies for safe ignition and temperature control
• Helps resolve ignition failures, weak or no burner flames, and intermittent heating
• Works with the appliance's ignition system to open and close gas supply as commanded

• One gas valve with included pipe

• Turn off the appliance's gas supply and electrical power before starting work
• Inspect fittings and gaskets; replace any damaged seals to ensure a gas-tight connection
• After installation, perform a gas leak test and check that burners ignite and operate correctly

This motor connector housing is the molded body that holds the motor's wire terminals for a secure, insulated connection. Replacing a cracked or heat-damaged housing helps restore reliable motor operation and prevent intermittent power issues.

• Organizes and insulates the motor's wiring terminals
• Locks the harness to the motor for a firm electrical connection
• Helps reduce loose contacts, arcing, and heat damage at the plug
• If the housing is failing, you may see intermittent or no motor operation, the machine stopping mid-cycle, or visible melting/discoloration at the motor connector

• Disconnect power; also shut off gas supply
• Note wire positions; transfer terminals into the new housing one at a time to maintain orientation
• Inspect terminals and wiring; replace any burnt or loose terminals before reassembly
• Ensure the connector seats fully on the motor and the harness is secure; restore power and test
