This ground screw secures the appliance grounding conductor to the chassis for a reliable electrical ground connection, helping maintain safety and proper operation. It's a direct-fit fastener used where a dedicated ground screw is required. What it does

• Fastens the grounding conductor to the appliance frame to maintain a secure earth/ground connection.
• Helps prevent electrical shock and reduces risk of stray voltage on the chassis.
• Addresses symptoms like intermittent or absent grounding and loose or corroded ground connections.
• Used wherever the original equipment grounding screw has been lost, damaged, or corroded.

• Disconnect power at the breaker and unplug the appliance before starting any work.
• Only attach to designated grounding points on the chassis; ensure the mating surface is clean and free of paint or corrosion.
• Use the correct driver and moderate hand torque—do not overtighten to avoid stripping threads.

This thermostat bracket holds the oven or range thermostat securely in place, ensuring accurate temperature sensing and stable oven performance. Replaces a worn or broken bracket to restore proper thermostat positioning. What it does:

• Secures the thermostat assembly to the oven/range interior so the thermostat bulb or probe senses temperature correctly
• Prevents the thermostat from shifting or contacting heating elements
• Commonly replaced when the bracket is cracked, bent, or missing and causes temperature or control issues
• Helps reduce temperature inconsistencies caused by a loose or damaged mounting

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical shock or injury
• Handle the thermostat and sensor bulb carefully; avoid kinks or direct pressure on sensing elements
• Basic hand tools are typically required; verify part alignment before tightening fasteners

The Switch Mounting Screw is an OEM part compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. This screw securely mounts the cycle selector switch within the control console assembly. Proper fastening ensures dependable operation of control functions.  

Causes of a bad mounting screw can stem from stress cracks developing over multiple years of operation. Vibrations accumulate, slowly loosening connections housed in a wet environment.

Symptoms of a bad mounting screw include:

• Loose or rattling switch within the console face  
• Difficulty selecting cycles as buttons wobble out of place
• Water intrusion hastening corrosion of electrical terminals
• Potential shock hazards if live connections are exposed

This Whirlpool replacement screw restores a tight mounting point. It is compatible with brands like Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This replacement wheel restores smooth movement for the appliance's moving assembly, helping reduce noise and prevent binding for consistent operation. Ideal when worn or damaged wheels cause dragging or uneven motion. What it does:

• Supports and guides a rotating or sliding component to maintain smooth movement
• Reduces friction and prevents binding that can cause rubbing or grinding noises
• Helps stabilize moving parts to eliminate wobble and uneven operation
• Restores proper alignment so the assembly runs quietly and reliably

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Inspect surrounding mounts and clips for damage; replace if worn
• Use basic hand tools; avoid forcing parts to prevent damage

This wheel leg is a replacement support used to stabilize and allow smooth movement of the appliance's lower assembly. It restores proper leveling and reduces wobble so the appliance sits securely and rolls or rests as designed. What it does

• Supports the appliance chassis at the lower corner and transfers load to the floor
• Helps maintain correct appliance height and leveling to reduce vibration and rocking
• Restores proper rolling or stationary support where a worn or broken leg caused instability
• Commonly replaced when the leg is cracked, stripped, missing, or no longer holds weight

• Verify appliance is unplugged and empty before accessing lower cabinet or base
• Support the appliance with a block or jack to prevent shifting while replacing the leg
• Remove any access panels or retaining hardware as needed; install the new leg in the original orientation
• Replace any fasteners that are damaged and test stability before returning the appliance to service

This is a genuine replacement screw used to secure panels, brackets, and components on compatible Whirlpool appliances. It restores proper fastening so loose parts stop rattling and panels stay aligned. What it does

• Fastens trim, panels, brackets, or mounting hardware to appliance chassis
• Helps stop vibration and rattling caused by missing or stripped fasteners
• Restores secure connections after repair or part replacement
• Matches OEM thread specification to fit intended mounting holes

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Start threads by hand and tighten until snug; do not overtighten
• Inspect mating threads and replace if damaged

This pressure regulator controls and stabilizes incoming water pressure to the appliance, helping maintain consistent operation and protect internal valves and seals. Fits systems that use a 3/4 inch inlet regulator. What it does:

• Reduces high incoming water pressure to a safe, steady level for the appliance
• Prevents pressure-related leaks, valve chatter, and premature wear on seals
• Helps maintain consistent water flow for reliable cycles and operation
• Commonly replaced when irregular pressure, humming valves, or water leaks occur

• One pressure regulator (3/4 in.)

• Turn off water supply and power to the appliance before starting; relieve system pressure first
• Inspect connection fittings and seals; use appropriate thread sealant if required by the OEM
• Tighten to manufacturer torque recommendations and check for leaks after restoring water

This seal kit is for the main tub. It goes around the pump housing.

Note: There are four wheel assemblies includes with this rack. The flexible tine rows are not included. This is a lower dishrack assembly for a dishwasher. This part holds the dishes during the washing and drying cycles. Note that this is only the lower dishrack assembly and the upper dishrack assembly is sold separately. Over time, the lower dishrack assembly may begin to rust or the coating may wear off. It is also possible that sections of the part could break due to degradation over time. If this happens, the entire lower dishrack assembly will need to be replaced. The lower dishrack assembly is compatible with dishwashers that are manufactured by the Kenmore, KitchenAid, and Whirlpool brands. It comes straight from the manufacturer and is sold individually. It's a genuine, high-quality, and durable OEM part.
