This 1-1/8 in wire retaining ring locks into a groove to secure components in place. It helps prevent parts from sliding off a shaft or shifting out of position so assemblies stay aligned and operate reliably.

• Holds components on a shaft or within a groove to prevent axial movement
• Maintains alignment of related parts in the assembly
• Common failure signs: ring is bent, missing, or won't stay seated
• Symptoms include loose or wobbly parts and rattling during operation

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Wear eye protection—retaining rings can spring free during removal
• Use appropriate snap-ring pliers or small picks to remove/install
• Ensure the ring is fully seated in the groove before reassembly and use

This thrust ring is a small spacer that controls end-play on a shaft or gear, keeping parts aligned and reducing friction. Replacing a worn ring restores smoother, quieter operation and helps prevent premature wear in the assembly.

• Maintains axial spacing and limits end-play in rotating assemblies
• Reduces friction and metal-to-metal contact between components
• Helps stabilize shafts/gears to minimize noise and vibration
• Replace if you notice scraping/grinding sounds, wobble, or visible wear on the old ring

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Refer to your model's parts diagram to confirm orientation and stack order with any spacers/washers
• Clean the shaft and mating surfaces; replace any companion parts that show severe wear
• After reassembly, check for smooth rotation and proper end-play before returning to service

Specs: 10-16 x 1/2 inch.

This vacuum break is the washer's water-inlet anti-siphon fitting. It maintains a required air gap so the tub fills properly without drawing used water back into the supply, helping prevent leaks and backflow issues.

• Maintains an air gap at the inlet to prevent backflow/siphoning into household water lines
• Helps ensure consistent, unobstructed water flow into the tub
• Replaces a cracked, clogged, or leaking vacuum break at the fill area
• Common symptoms include leaks from the rear/top during fill, visible cracks, or restricted/noisy fill

• Unplug the appliance and shut off both water supplies before servicing
• Access the fill/inlet area; note hose routing and part orientation
• Remove hose clamps/hoses and the old vacuum break; install the new part and secure clamps
• Restore water and power, then run a fill test and check carefully for leaks

This adapter tube assembly connects sections of the appliance's water line to create a secure, leak-resistant path for water flow. Replace it if the tube is cracked or the connection no longer seals properly to prevent leaks and restore flow.

• Connects water tubing between components within the appliance's water system
• Helps maintain a tight, leak-resistant seal at the joint
• Restores proper water flow when a tube or connector is damaged
• Typical symptoms: water leaking at the connection, reduced or no water flow, visible cracks/kinks, loose fit

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Relieve line pressure and place a towel or pan to catch any residual water
• Note routing and orientation before removal to ensure correct reassembly
• After installation, restore water and check all connections for leaks

This is a replacement power cord that supplies electrical power from a wall outlet to your appliance. A fresh cord helps ensure safe, reliable power delivery when the original is damaged, overheated, or worn.

• Delivers household power to the unit's main electrical connection
• Replace if the cord is cut, cracked, burnt, loose, or intermittently powers the appliance
• Helps resolve issues like no power, tripping breakers, or visible cord damage

• Unplug the appliance and turn off the circuit breaker before starting
• Verify outlet type and cord routing match your original installation
• Transfer any cord clamp/retainer as needed and secure against sharp edges
• Inspect for proper grounding and test operation before returning to service

This retainer ring is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer for use on front load washing machines to hold the boot seal in place. The boot seal is the gasket that seals the washing machine when the door is closed to prevent water from leaking. The retainer ring is located flush against the boot seal and has either a spring clamp or screw clamp that secures it. Over time, this ring may become damaged due to the washing machine's normal use and age. If the ring is not tight, the washing machine could leak when in use. If water is coming from the door, it is a good idea to inspect and replace the retainer ring and possibly the boot as well.Unplug the washing machine to prevent electrocution. Remove the front panel, the detergent dispenser, and the kickplate to access the retainer ring. Locate the clamp on the ring and loosen it. Remove the retainer ring and set it to the side. Inspect the boot and then install the new retainer ring. Tighten the clamp and reassemble the washing machine. This retainer ring is sold as an individual unit. It is designed specifically for washing machines manufactured by Whirlpool.

This internal pump-to-drain hose routes water from the drain pump to the outlet, helping prevent leaks and ensuring proper draining. Replace a cracked or clogged hose to restore reliable, mess-free operation.

• Connects the pump outlet to the machine's drain/outlet port to carry wastewater out during the drain cycle
• Maintains a sealed path to help prevent internal leaks
• Common symptoms of failure: water on the floor, slow or incomplete draining, visible splits or soft spots on the hose
• Replacing a restricted hose can reduce drain pump strain and noise

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply; remove standing water from the tub if needed
• Access the drain pump and hose by removing the cabinet/front or rear panel per your model
• Release hose clamps, remove the old hose, and seat the new hose fully on both fittings; reuse clamps if in good condition
• Route the hose as originally to avoid kinks; run a drain cycle and check for leaks

This motor retainer secures the motor to its mounting point, keeping the assembly tight and aligned. Replace a worn or broken retainer to cut vibration and noise and to protect nearby seals, wiring, and components. What it does:

• Holds the motor firmly in place within the assembly
• Maintains alignment for smooth, quiet operation
• Supports sealing surfaces and connections; on water-bearing assemblies, help prevent leaks
• Replace if you notice a loose or rattling motor, new vibration/noise, or signs of movement or leakage at the motor

• Includes 1 motor retainer.

• Disconnect power; turn off water supply.
• Access the motor area and support the motor before removing the old retainer.
• Inspect mating parts and seals; replace any damaged components.
• Fully seat the motor and install the new retainer securely; test for abnormal noise or leaks.
