• Ensure the shelf is level and locked into place before reloading items
• Handle edges carefully; avoid impact to prevent damage

The Screw is an OEM component specifically designed for LG ranges. It plays an important mounting and fastening role by securely attaching internal components together.

The screws utilized within the range cabinet ensure sturdy construction and reliable mechanical cohesion. They allow for simple assembly and proper alignment of inner parts. 

Causes of bad screws can include wear and tear over time, or damage from overtightening leading to stripped threads or heads.

Symptoms of bad screws include:

• Loose, detached, or misaligned inner parts  
• Hardware that does not fit or interface as designed
• Unintended noises or movement during the operation

This OEM LG replacement part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore and some GE ranges utilizing similar fasteners. Replacement ensures the range remains mechanically sound.
 

The Common Nut is an OEM part for LG ranges. It secures the fan blade to the motor shaft. This nut maintains the fan's stability and preventing it from becoming dislodged during use.

Causes of a bad common nut can include loosening over time due to vibration, improper installation, or damage from impact or mishandling.

Symptoms of a bad common nut include:

• Excessive noise or vibration from the fan assembly
• The fan blade becoming loose or detached, causing poor air circulation
• Potential risk of the fan blade becoming a projectile if completely detached

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.a

This hardware washer helps distribute fastener load and maintain proper spacing in your LG appliance. Replacing a missing or worn washer restores secure mounting and alignment, reducing vibration and rattling from loose assemblies.

• Distributes the load of a screw or bolt and protects mating surfaces to maintain alignment
• Helps keep components secure and at the correct spacing
• A damaged or missing washer can lead to loosening, vibration, or rattling during operation
• Ensures correct hardware stack-up during reassembly after service

• Disconnect power and shut off water or gas before servicing
• Note the order and orientation of any washers/spacers; take a reference photo
• Use the correct driver or wrench and tighten snugly—do not overtighten
• Replace companion hardware if corroded, stripped, or damaged

A circular lug designed to join a stripped wire to a threaded terminal for a secure electrical connection. Helps restore reliable contact at terminals and reduces the chance of intermittent power or arcing at connection points. What it does:

• Provides a strong mechanical and electrical connection between a wire and a screw or bolt terminal.
• Helps prevent loose connections that can cause intermittent operation, sparking, or overheating.
• Commonly used where a ring-style termination is required for safe, stable wiring.
• Works with properly sized wire and fasteners to maintain consistent conductivity.

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing electrical parts.
• Use the correct lug size and gauge for the wire and terminal; crimp or solder per manufacturer recommendations.
• Tighten terminal hardware to the appliance manufacturer's specified torque; avoid over-tightening which can damage the lug or terminal.
• If wiring insulation or the terminal is damaged or corroded, replace the affected components rather than reusing them.

This fan assembly replaces a worn or failed fan motor and blade to restore normal airflow and cooling performance. Fits units that use the listed part number to move air where needed for efficient operation. What it does:

• Spins to circulate air across coils or through the appliance for proper temperature control
• Helps remove heat from condenser or circulate cold air from evaporator depending on application
• Commonly needed when the fan is noisy, intermittently stops, or airflow is weak
• Supports overall system efficiency by maintaining designed airflow pathways

• Disconnect power before beginning any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Handle the blade and motor carefully; avoid bending the blade or damaging electrical connectors
• Use basic hand tools; mounting hardware may be reused if in good condition
• After installation, verify the fan runs smoothly and does not contact surrounding components

This inner cover is the OEM replacement panel that protects internal components and wiring inside the appliance while restoring the unit's finished interior appearance. It helps block debris, moisture, and accidental contact with internal parts. What it does:

• Shields internal components and wiring from debris and accidental contact
• Restores the appliance's interior finish and fit where an inner panel was cracked or missing
• Helps reduce rattling or noise caused by loose or damaged interior panels
• Prevents moisture or small objects from reaching control areas or openings

• Disconnect power (and water, if applicable) before starting any repair.
• Removing the outer cabinet or adjacent trim may be required; retain all fasteners.
• Use appropriate hand tools and avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to clips or mounting points.

This replacement front lower grille restores the dryer's finished appearance and protects the vent opening from debris. Fits the factory opening and keeps airflow clear while helping maintain the appliance's exterior look. What it does:

• Covers and protects the dryer's lower front/vent opening from lint and objects
• Directs airflow through the proper vent path to help maintain dryer performance
• Replaces cracked, broken or visibly worn trim that affects appearance
• Matches factory fit and mounting points for a secure installation

• One front lower grille/trim piece

• Remove power (unplug or disconnect breaker) before starting work
• Minor disassembly of the lower front panel may be required; keep fasteners organized
• Handle trim carefully to avoid scratching painted surfaces; use protective tape if needed
