This suspension spring hook connects a tub suspension spring to the washer frame, helping support and center the wash basket. Replacing a worn or missing hook can reduce shaking, banging, and off-balance interruptions during spin.

• Secures one end of a suspension spring to the cabinet/base
• Helps control tub movement and absorb vibration during agitation and spin
• Failure signs include excessive vibration or banging, tub leaning/sagging, or frequent out-of-balance stops

• Disconnect power and water; wear gloves and eye protection
• Access the suspension area per model; support the tub to relieve spring tension
• Use pliers or a spring tool to remove the old hook; note orientation and mounting location
• Seat the new hook fully and ensure the spring is engaged securely before reassembly and testing

This washer drain hose routes wastewater from the drain pump to your standpipe or laundry tub. Replacing a cracked or kinked hose restores reliable draining and helps prevent leaks during the spin/drain cycle.

• Connects the washer's drain outlet to the household standpipe or laundry tub
• Molded bend helps position the hose correctly and reduces kinking
• Typical symptoms: water leaking at the back or onto the floor while draining
• Visible splits, soft spots, brittleness, or abrasion on the hose
• Slow or incomplete draining caused by kinks or internal blockage

• Disconnect power and move the washer to access the rear; shutting off water is recommended as a precaution
• Place towels or a shallow pan to catch residual water when removing the old hose
• Transfer and reuse existing clamps/brackets if required; fully seat and secure connections, and route the hose to avoid kinks or rubbing
• Insert the outlet end properly into the standpipe or tub per your model's instructions, then run a quick drain/spin to check for leaks

This replacement timer knob restores manual timer control on compatible Whirlpool appliances, giving a secure grip and smooth turning for accurate time or cycle selection. Easy-to-replace part for worn, broken, or stripped knobs. What it does:

• Replaces a cracked, worn, or missing timer knob so you can set and adjust time or cycle settings.
• Fits onto the appliance timer shaft to provide a secure, easy-to-turn control surface.
• Helps when the knob spins freely, won't engage the timer, or is difficult to turn.
• Restores tactile feedback for precise timer/cycle selection.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any service.
• Most installations require no tools; pull old knob straight off the shaft and push the new knob on until it seats.
• Align splines on the knob with the timer shaft—do not force; forcing can damage the timer shaft.

Hose washer and plastic insert for inlet hose. To order separately: for washer use WPY013783, for strainer use WP22002960.

This small retaining clip secures components in place inside the appliance, helping prevent movement, vibration, and premature wear. Replace a bent, fatigued, or missing clip to restore a solid, factory-tight hold.

• Holds panels, brackets, or tubing securely in their mounts
• Helps maintain alignment to reduce rattles, rubbing, or intermittent issues
• Common signs of failure: missing clip, loose fit, buzzing/vibration, parts that won't stay seated
• Restores proper retention after service, transport, or vibration-related fatigue

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water before servicing
• Note the original clip's orientation; remove with needle-nose pliers
• Seat the new clip fully—do not over-bend; spring tension provides the hold
• Test operation before reassembly

This pressure switch hose carries air from the washer tub to the pressure switch so the machine can sense and control water level. Replacing a damaged hose restores proper fill control and prevents level-sensing errors. What it does:

• Channels air/vacuum from the tub to the pressure switch so the control can detect water level.
• A cracked, pinched, or collapsed hose may cause overfilling, underfilling, failure to advance cycles, or continuous fill.
• Restores accurate water-level sensing when replacing a worn or damaged hose.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Remove and replace the hose carefully; avoid kinks, sharp bends, or pinched routing that can impair sensing.
• Use the factory-style connection points and clamps; ensure both ends are seated securely.
• After installation, run a test fill or diagnostic cycle to confirm correct water-level operation and no leaks.

This electronic control board manages your washer's cycle logic and core functions. When it fails, the machine may not start, stop mid-cycle, or act unpredictably. Replacing a faulty board restores reliable cycle control. What it does

• Coordinates filling, wash/agitation or tumbling, draining, and spin based on the selected cycle
• Processes inputs from switches and sensors to time each step
• Common failure symptoms: no power/response, won't start or advance, stops mid-cycle, intermittent operation, or recurring fault codes
• May present erratic lights/indicators or visible heat damage on the board

• 1 electronic control board

• Disconnect power and turn off water before servicing
• Use anti-static precautions; handle the board by its edges
• Photograph wiring; transfer connectors one at a time to matching positions and reuse original mounting hardware as needed
• After installation, run any model-specific diagnostic or calibration procedure per the service manual

This retaining ring secures a component on a shaft or within a groove so it stays aligned during operation. Replacing a bent, rusted, or missing ring helps stop wobble, noise, and parts working loose.

• Locks into a groove to keep gears, pulleys, wheels, or spacers from sliding off a shaft
• Helps maintain proper spacing and alignment of moving parts
• Common signs of failure: wobbling parts, scraping/rubbing noises, or components that work loose
• Visual clues: deformation, corrosion, or loss of spring tension

• Disconnect power and any utilities to the appliance before service
• Wear eye protection—retaining rings can spring free under tension
• Note the order/orientation of any washers or spacers before removal
• Use appropriate snap-ring or needle-nose pliers and ensure the ring seats fully in its groove

This hex-head sheet metal screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and trim for a tight, rattle-free fit. Replace missing or stripped fasteners to keep covers and components firmly in place and restore proper alignment.

• Fastens sheet-metal parts, brackets, and trim using a hex drive
• Replaces worn, rusted, missing, or stripped screws
• Helps reduce vibration and rattling from loose panels
• Common signs you need this fastener: head or threads stripped, screw won't tighten, panel or handle coming loose

• Unplug the appliance before service; turn off water supply if working near water lines
• Use the correct nut driver or socket to avoid rounding the head
• Replace one fastener at a time to maintain alignment; do not overtighten
• Match screw type/length to the original location as specified by the manufacturer
