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 replacement nut is a basic fastener used to secure components and assemblies on compatible Whirlpool appliances, restoring a tight connection and preventing parts from loosening during use. What it does

• Secures panels, brackets, or components to a stud or bolt to keep assemblies stable
• Prevents rattling, vibration, or movement caused by a loose or missing nut
• Replaces a stripped, corroded, or lost nut to restore proper mechanical connection
• Works with the corresponding bolt or stud as part of the appliance's fastening system

• Disconnect power and water to the appliance and ensure it is stable before starting work
• Thread the nut on by hand first to avoid cross-threading, then tighten with the appropriate sized wrench or socket
• Do not overtighten — torque to the appliance manufacturer's specification when available
• Replace damaged studs or mating hardware if threads are worn or damaged

This gas valve controls gas flow to the oven or range burners so the appliance lights and maintains a steady flame. Replaces a faulty valve to restore reliable ignition and consistent heating. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow from the supply to the burner manifold for proper combustion
• Allows the oven/range to ignite and hold a steady flame during operation
• Commonly used when burners won't light, flame flickers or won't stay lit, or oven fails to heat
• Works with the appliance's safety controls and thermostat/electronic controls to modulate gas

• One gas valve

• Shut off gas supply and power to the appliance before starting any work
• Installation may require disconnection of gas lines; leak-test all connections after install
• Do not operate if you detect a gas odor—stop work, ventilate area.

This cover assembly replaces a damaged or missing unit cover to protect internal components and keep wiring and assemblies secure. It restores the appliance's enclosure and helps maintain safe, reliable operation. What it does:

• Protects motors, wiring and internal components from dust, debris and accidental contact
• Helps reduce vibration-related movement of internal parts by keeping assemblies enclosed
• Restores the appliance's outer enclosure to prevent gaps that could allow foreign objects inside
• Addresses symptoms like cracked, broken or missing covers and loose or exposed internal parts

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electrical shock
• Remove any obstructing panels or components to access the mounting points for the cover
• Align the cover with factory mounting locations and secure all fasteners; do not force or bend the part

This grid cover is a direct-fit replacement that restores the protective trim and appearance around your appliance's cooktop grid. It keeps the cooktop edge sealed and helps hold the grate area steady during normal use. What it does:

• Covers and protects the outer edge of the cooktop grid to prevent debris from entering gaps.
• Helps maintain proper alignment and stability of the cooktop grate.
• Restores worn, cracked or missing trim for a cleaner, finished look.
• Reduces risk of small items falling into the burner area when the grate is removed.

• Designed for easy swap-out; remove the grate and lift old cover before installing the new cover.
• No special tools typically required; handle carefully to avoid scratching the cooktop surface.
• Disconnect power or ensure burners are cool before working around the cooktop.
