• Absorbs and dampens tub movement during agitation and spin to reduce vibration and noise.
• Helps maintain proper tub alignment for more even spinning and less wobble.
• Commonly replaced when the washer rocks, thumps, or makes excessive noise during spin.
• Works with the washer's suspension system to protect other components from shock and wear.

• 1 dampener

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before beginning any repair.
• Access typically requires removing the washer cabinet or front panel; follow OEM service instructions.
• Inspect mounting studs and clips for wear; replace as needed to ensure a secure fit.

A replacement machine screw with 8-32 threads used to secure panels and components on compatible Whirlpool appliances. Installs quickly to restore proper fit and stop rattling or loose parts. What it does:

• Secures panels, trim, brackets or components that use 8-32 machine-thread fasteners
• Restores proper alignment and prevents vibration-related noise
• Replaces missing, stripped, or damaged screws that allow parts to come loose
• Works where a standard 8-32 machine screw is specified by the manufacturer

• Disconnect power and/or gas before servicing the appliance to reduce shock or injury risk
• Use the proper screwdriver or nut driver for the screw head to avoid stripping
• Thread gently and stop when snug; do not overtighten to prevent stripping or damage
• If threads are damaged, replace with the correct-size screw rather than forcing it

This replacement screw secures panels, trim pieces and small assemblies so covers and components stay aligned and rattle-free. It's a simple, direct fastening part used when an original screw is missing or damaged. What it does:

• Fastens panels, trim, control housings and other small components to the appliance chassis
• Replaces missing, worn or stripped screws that cause loose panels or rattling noises
• Restores correct alignment of covers and trims after service or disassembly
• Provides a direct, hardware-level repair instead of temporary fixes

• Disconnect power (and gas, where applicable) and ensure the appliance is cool before starting.
• Use the correct screwdriver bit and turn until snug; do not overtighten to avoid stripping threads or damaging parts.
• Keep removed hardware for reference; replace like-for-like if threads or inserts are damaged.
• Wear eye protection and gloves when working on appliances.

This leveler is the adjustable leg that helps stabilize and level your appliance, restoring balance and reducing vibration. It's a simple replacement to get a rocking or uneven washer or dryer sitting squarely again. What it does:

• Replaces a worn or damaged leveling leg to restore stable, level support under the appliance
• Allows height adjustment to compensate for uneven floors and reduce rocking or vibration
• Helps prevent door misalignment and uneven loads that can affect performance
• Commonly used when an appliance wobbles, shifts during cycles, or sits crooked

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting service; for washers, turn off water supply and drain hoses if needed
• Slide or tip the appliance as required to access the leveling legs; use caution and a helper for heavy units
• Adjust height by turning the leveler; verify stability with the appliance resting on all legs

This heater clamp secures a heating element in the correct position within the appliance. Proper support keeps the element stable so it operates quietly and melts frost as designed for consistent, reliable performance.

• Holds the heater firmly in place to maintain correct alignment
• Reduces movement and vibration that can cause noise or wear
• Helps promote even frost melt during defrost for steady cooling
• Symptoms of a damaged or missing clamp can include recurring frost/ice buildup, a heater out of position, or rattling from the freezer area

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access the heater/evaporator by removing the freezer panel as applicable
• Note the original clamp orientation and routing before removal
• Use needle-nose pliers to install; avoid damaging evaporator fins and do not deform the heater—position it exactly as originally placed

This is a replacement hex nut used to secure appliance components and fasteners. It restores a tight, reliable connection where a worn or missing nut causes loose panels, trim, or bracketing. What it does:

• Secures threaded studs, bolts, or fasteners to keep panels and components in place
• Restores proper fastening when original nut is stripped, corroded, or lost
• Helps eliminate rattling, vibration, or loose parts caused by a missing/failed nut
• Compatible with the appliance locations that use a standard hex nut for mounting

• Turn off and unplug the appliance before accessing interior panels or fasteners
• Use the correct wrench or socket size to avoid rounding the nut
• Replace only like-for-like nuts; if thread damage is present, inspect and replace the mating bolt/stud as needed
