This small clamping nut secures a mating clamp or bracket so the connected component stays firmly in place. Replacing a worn, stripped, or missing nut restores a solid hold and helps prevent looseness or leaks around the secured area.

• Secures a clamp or bracket to its mounting point
• Restores proper clamping force when the original nut is stripped or missing
• Common signs: loose clamp, rattling/vibration, clamp won't tighten, minor leaks where the clamp is used
• Durable hardware replacement to maintain stable, reliable assemblies

• Disconnect power and shut off water/gas to the appliance before service
• Note clamp/bracket orientation before removal for correct reassembly
• Start threads by hand to prevent cross-threading; then tighten with the appropriate tool
• Do not overtighten—snug just enough to securely clamp the component

This upper injector directs incoming water cleanly into the washer tub during fill and rinse. Replacing a cracked or clogged injector restores proper water delivery, helps prevent splash-back, and supports consistent wash performance.

• Channels inlet water into the tub from the upper injection point
• Helps prevent splash-back and backflow at the tub ring area
• Promotes even water spray for detergent/softener flushing as designed
• Common failure symptoms: water dripping or spraying from the fill area, leaks down the cabinet, slow/erratic fill, or visible cracking/mineral buildup on the injector

• Disconnect power and turn off both hot and cold water supplies before servicing
• Access the injector at the top/tub ring area; remove top or cabinet panels as required per model
• Transfer and secure the fill hose and clamps; ensure a fully seated connection
• Restore water and power, run a fill test, and check all connections for leaks

This agitator spring maintains the spring tension inside the washer's agitator assembly so the wash action engages reliably. When fatigued or missing, the agitator can slip, feel loose, or make clicking/ratcheting noises during the cycle.

• Provides spring tension within the agitator assembly
• Helps keep agitator components properly engaged for consistent wash action
• Symptom: upper agitator/auger slips or fails to advance
• Symptom: weak or intermittent agitation
• Symptom: clicking/ratcheting noises or a loose-feeling agitator

• Disconnect power and turn off water before servicing
• Remove the agitator cap and bolt/retainer to access internal components
• Note the order and orientation of parts; seat the new spring correctly before reassembly
• Snug the agitator bolt and reinstall caps; run a test cycle to ensure proper agitation

This spring-timer knob replaces a worn, cracked or missing timer knob so you can set and adjust the appliance's mechanical timer reliably. Simple, direct replacement that restores the user control interface. What it does:

• Fits onto the appliance's mechanical timer shaft to allow setting and advancing the timer
• Restores a secure grip and pointer for accurate time selection
• Commonly used to fix loose, cracked, stripped, or missing timer knobs
• Helps resolve inability to turn or set the mechanical timer caused by a damaged knob

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Pull the old knob straight off the timer shaft; align splines and press the new knob fully onto the shaft until seated
• If the knob is tight, use a proper knob puller or gentle, even leverage to avoid damaging the shaft

This unbalance plunger helps the washer detect and respond to off-center loads so spin speed and balance are maintained for a smoother cycle. It's a small replacement component used with the washer's unbalance sensing assembly. What it does:

• Acts as the actuator/contact for the washer's unbalance sensor to detect tub movement
• Helps the machine pause or rebalance when an off-center load is detected
• Can resolve symptoms like frequent unbalanced-load interruptions, excessive shaking, or incomplete spin cycles
• Works as a direct-fit replacement for the washer's original unbalance plunger

• One unbalance plunger

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Access typically requires removing the washer cabinet or control housing; follow the service manual for your model
• Handle plastic components carefully to avoid breakage; inspect mating parts (sensors, clips) for wear

This Torx-head screw set replaces worn, stripped or missing Torx fasteners used throughout the appliance to keep panels and components securely fastened. Restoring proper fasteners reduces vibration and prevents loose parts. What it does:

• Secures control panels, trim pieces or internal components that use Torx-head screws
• Replaces damaged or corroded Torx screws that can cause rattling or misalignment
• Helps restore proper fit and finish after repairs or disassembly
• Uses a Torx drive for a more secure torque transfer than standard Phillips heads

• Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before starting any repair
• Use the correct-size Torx driver to avoid stripping the screw head
• Tighten screws snugly but avoid over-torquing to prevent thread or part damage
• Keep removed screws organized and compare to the new set before installation

This hex-head screw secures the bearing insert in place, maintaining correct alignment and stable operation. Replacing a damaged or missing screw restores secure bearing retention and reduces noise or wobble. What it does:

• Holds the bearing insert assembly firmly to prevent movement and misalignment
• Helps stop excessive vibration, noise, or drum wobble caused by a loose bearing insert
• Maintains correct spacing so the bearing and shaft rotate smoothly
• Replaces stripped, rusted, or missing fastening hardware for reliable operation

• Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before beginning any repair
• Use the proper hex driver and size to avoid stripping the head
• Tighten securely but do not overtighten; overtightening can deform the insert or housing
• Inspect the bearing insert and surrounding parts; replace any damaged components for a lasting repair

This replacement cap fits over a range/oven control knob to restore finished appearance and protect the underlying shaft. It snaps into place and matches original white knobs for a cohesive control panel look. What it does:

• Covers and protects the knob stem from dirt and wear
• Restores the finished appearance of a chipped, faded, or missing knob cap
• Helps keep moisture and debris out of the control shaft area
• Fits the original knob assembly to maintain proper knob fit and function

• One white knob cap

• Snaps onto the front of the existing knob or knob collar; press firmly until it seats
• Inspect the knob and shaft for damage; replace the full knob assembly if the shaft is bent or worn
• Disconnect power to the appliance and follow appliance safety guidelines before servicing nearby components
• No tools usually required; use a soft cloth to avoid scratching finished surfaces during installation
