• 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 terminal block cover protects the appliance's electrical connection area from accidental contact and debris, helping reduce the risk of shorts and corrosion while keeping wiring secure and contained. What it does:

• Covers and shields the power terminal/block where the power cord connects
• Helps prevent accidental contact with live terminals and reduces short risk
• Keeps out dust, lint and debris that can cause corrosion or arcing
• Useful when the original cover is cracked, missing or showing burn marks

• Always disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before servicing electrical components
• Typically installs over the terminal block and secures with the existing fastener(s); inspect mounting hardware for wear
• Replace if cracked, melted or if terminals are exposed; ensure cover seats fully before restoring power

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 Support (mounting bracket) secures internal components and stabilizes the appliance's assembly to help prevent sagging, misalignment and excess vibration. It's a small replacement that restores proper fit and reduces rattling. What it does:

• Provides a stable mounting point for panels or internal assemblies
• Keeps components aligned to prevent binding or wear
• Reduces noise caused by loose or sagging parts
• Helps stop intermittent contact or rubbing that can cause rattles

• Disconnect power (and water, if applicable) before servicing
• Access may require removing outer panels or trim; keep track of fasteners
• Support the assembly while replacing the bracket to avoid strain

This TRACK is the replacement guide that keeps a door or drawer aligned and sliding smoothly. It restores stable movement and reduces misalignment or scraping for a properly operating opening mechanism. What it does:

• Guides the door or drawer along its intended path to maintain alignment and smooth motion
• Prevents rubbing, sticking, or uneven movement that can lead to noisy operation
• Helps keep the panel or drawer from sagging or catching on the frame
• Restores consistent closing and opening performance when worn or damaged

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

This ball sleeve guides and supports the valve ball inside the water/dispensing assembly to help maintain a proper seal and smooth movement. Replacing a worn sleeve restores reliable valve operation and reduces intermittent leaks or flow issues. What it does:

• Positions and protects the valve ball for consistent seating and sealing
• Prevents wear between the ball and valve bore to maintain proper flow control
• Helps stop dripping, leaking, or inconsistent dispensing caused by a damaged sleeve
• Works as the mating surface for the ball to ensure smooth operation

• One ball sleeve

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair
• Replace only with the correct part number to ensure proper fit and seal
• Inspect surrounding valve components and seals; replace if worn or damaged
• Test for leaks and proper operation after reassembly

This screw anchor is a small plastic fastener that secures panels and trim on appliances, preventing screws from stripping or pulling out. It provides a reliable anchor point for screws where threaded material is thin or absent. What it does:

• Creates a secure mounting point for screws in sheet metal, plastic or thin panels
• Helps prevent screw looseness, stripping, and parts that shift or rattle
• Commonly used to hold trim, panels, or interior components in place
• Works with compatible screws to distribute load and stabilize attachments

• Use the correct screw size and length; anchors are made for specific screw diameters—do not force oversize screws
• Align anchor in the prepared hole before driving the screw to avoid cracking the anchor or surrounding material
• Hand-start screws until seated, then tighten gradually—do not overtighten to prevent stripping or damage
• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before accessing internal panels
