Lte5243bwo Parts

This factory screw secures appliance panels and components, keeping them properly aligned and quiet during operation. Replace a stripped, corroded, or missing fastener to restore a snug fit and dependable performance in the original mounting location. What it does:

• Fastens brackets, panels, trim, or internal hardware to the cabinet/frame as specified by the manufacturer
• Helps maintain proper alignment and reduce rattling or vibration when a screw is worn or missing
• Direct replacement for damaged, stripped, or rusted hardware
• Used in various locations per the service diagram; match to the original position

• 1 screw

• Disconnect power (and shut off water or gas, if applicable) before servicing.
• Compare length and thread style to the original; install in the same location.
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten until snug—do not overtighten.
• Reinstall any brackets or panels in the correct order.

This replacement console trim panel restores the appliance's front/control appearance and protects internal controls from spills and dust. It helps keep the control area looking finished while maintaining access to buttons and displays. What it does:

• Replaces a cracked, dented, or faded control-area panel to improve appearance
• Protects buttons, switches and the display opening from debris and moisture
• Keeps the control area properly aligned so buttons and indicators operate cleanly
• Useful when the original panel is damaged but internal electronics are intact

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any work
• Remove only the fasteners and trim pieces required to access and replace the panel
• Handle with care to avoid scratching the finished surface during installation

A cam sleeve that supports and guides the cam on its shaft to keep the cam-driven mechanism moving smoothly. Replacing a worn sleeve helps restore correct alignment and reduces binding or intermittent movement. What it does

• Centers and stabilizes the cam on its shaft for reliable engagement.
• Prevents metal-on-metal wear between the cam and shaft.
• Helps eliminate binding, wobble, or uneven operation caused by a worn sleeve.
• Common symptom of failure: noise, sticking, or irregular movement from the cam-driven mechanism.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair.
• Access typically requires removing the appropriate service panel; follow the model service manual.
• Inspect mating cam and shaft for wear; replace any damaged components.
• Reassemble panels and verify proper operation before returning the appliance to service.

A replacement thrust bearing that supports the washer transmission shaft to reduce axial wear and help the gearbox rotate more smoothly. Use this bearing to address noisy transmission operation and reduce metal-on-metal wear when the original is worn. What it does:

• Supports axial load on the transmission/gearcase shaft to reduce friction and wear
• Helps prevent grinding, scraping, or other metal-on-metal noises from the gearbox
• Can reduce rough or noisy spin and improve agitation when a worn bearing is the cause
• Helps maintain proper alignment of transmission components for smoother operation

• Disconnect power and water supply and drain the washer before beginning any work.
• Replacement requires accessing the agitator/gearcase per the OEM service manual and may involve transmission/gearcase disassembly.
• Inspect nearby seals, fasteners and other bearings while servicing; replace damaged parts to avoid premature failure.

This spring-damper assembly cushions and stabilizes moving components to reduce noise, vibration and abrupt motions. It restores smoother operation and helps prevent wear on related parts. What it does:

• Absorbs shock and controls motion to reduce banging or sudden movement
• Stabilizes moving components for quieter, smoother operation
• Helps prevent accelerated wear on hinges, levers or linkages
• Addresses symptoms like excessive vibration, rattling or irregular movement

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before starting any repair
• Handle carefully; springs can be under tension—wear safety glasses and gloves
• Basic hand tools typically required; follow OEM service instructions for alignment
• Inspect and replace other suspension or hinge parts as needed for best results

Use with motor 357282.

Almond

This exhaust vent extension provides extra duct length to move dryer or hood exhaust farther from the appliance, improving airflow routing and helping reduce backpressure and lint buildup in short-vent installations. What it does:

• Extends the length of an existing exhaust duct to reach a distant vent outlet
• Helps restore proper ventilation when original ducting is too short
• Reduces restricted airflow that can cause longer dry times or excess lint accumulation
• Works as an inline rigid/semirigid extension piece for exhaust systems

• Disconnect power (and gas for gas dryers) before accessing or modifying exhaust connections
• Remove lint and debris from ducting before installing the extension to ensure clear airflow
• Securely fasten with appropriate clamps or foil tape and maintain a smooth, unobstructed path
