• Secures a flexible hose to a nipple or barb to help prevent accidental disconnection
• Helps maintain a tight connection that reduces risk of leaks at the hose joint
• Commonly used on drain, fill, or internal circulation hoses where a small snap clamp is required
• Small, low-profile design fits in tight spaces and resists shifting under normal use

• One snap-style hose clamp

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before beginning any repair
• Access may require removing panels or disassembling interior components depending on appliance
• Pry open or compress the clip as needed with pliers to remove and reinstall; ensure hose is fully seated on the fitting before securing

This brake spring restores proper tension in the washer's transmission brake so the basket stops promptly and releases cleanly for spin. Replacing a fatigued or broken spring helps bring back smooth, reliable spin and stopping performance.

• Maintains brake tension to hold the basket stationary between cycles
• Releases the brake during spin so the basket can reach proper speed
• Helps stop the basket smoothly at cycle end
• Common signs include no/slow spin, basket coasting too long after spin, or brake squeal/grinding when stopping

• Disconnect power and water before servicing; wear gloves and eye protection.
• The brake spring is under tension—secure the assembly and carefully relieve spring force before removal.
• Access typically requires removing drive components to reach the brake assembly; support the washer safely if tilted.
• After installation, hand-rotate the drive pulley to ensure smooth brake engagement and release before running a test cycle.

Color: gray. The back part of the knob measures about an inch in diameter, and the front part with the handle is about 2 inches in diameter.

This lid switch assembly kit is the washer's safety interlock. It detects when the lid is closed so the control can allow the machine to spin, helping restore safe, reliable operation when the original switch fails.

• Senses lid closed and enables the spin cycle
• Prevents spinning with the lid open for safety
• Common failure symptoms: no spin or intermittent spin
• Requires pressing or jiggling the lid to run; no audible "click" when closing the lid

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the switch under the top/console area; remove the old switch/bracket as designed
• Route wiring along the original path and secure away from moving parts
• Align the actuator so the lid reliably engages the switch; test spin operation before reassembly

Mounting screw used to secure panels, trim, brackets, and small appliance components. Replace a missing or damaged fastener to restore proper fit, reduce vibration, and keep parts aligned for safe operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, control boards, brackets, and trim to maintain correct assembly
• Replaces stripped, broken, or missing screws that cause loose or rattling parts
• Helps prevent misalignment that can interfere with doors, knobs, or covers
• Standard fastener interface — use the correct driver and size for a secure fit

• Disconnect power and/or gas and follow appliance safety procedures before servicing
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Do not overtighten; snug until secure to avoid damage to threads or surrounding parts
• If threads are damaged, replace the mating component or use the correct thread-repair method

This lid switch housing secures and protects the washer's lid switch assembly so the machine can detect the lid position reliably. It replaces a cracked or broken housing to restore proper switch alignment and protection. What it does:

• Holds the lid switch assembly in the correct position for reliable lid detection.
• Shields the switch from impacts and debris that can cause intermittent failures.
• Common symptom: washer won't start, won't spin, or shows lid-lock-related errors when the housing is damaged.
• Restores consistent electrical/mechanical engagement between the lid and switch when installed correctly.

• Unplug the appliance before beginning any service to avoid shock or injury.
• Basic hand tools are typically needed; follow the OEM diagram for correct removal and reassembly.
• Inspect the lid switch and wiring while replacing the housing; replace any damaged components.

This Timer Knob is an OEM part for Whirlpool washers. It attaches to the washer timer and allows users to select different wash cycles by turning the timer to the desired setting. Its sturdy construction ensures accurate timing and ease of use throughout the washer's life.

The most common causes of a faulty timer knob include general wear over time due to regular use, physical damage resulting from mishandling or impact, and internal stripping of the knob teeth that can make it difficult to engage with the timer shaft.

Color: Gray

Symptoms of a faulty timer knob include:

• Difficulty turning the timer
• Inability to select or change wash cycles
• The knob spins freely without adjusting the cycle setting

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This gasket seals the basket to the center shaft to help prevent leaks and reduce noise from worn or damaged seals. It restores a proper seal between the tub/basket and the drive shaft for reliable operation. What it does:

• Seals the gap between the basket/tub and the center drive shaft to help prevent water from leaking into the motor/tub area
• Helps reduce rubbing noise caused by a worn or torn seal
• Restores a tight fit after seal failure, wear, or damage
• Common symptom: water leakage from the tub area or visible wear around the shaft opening

• Refer to the exploded parts diagram for correct positioning and orientation
• Inspect mating surfaces for damage or residue and clean before installing the new gasket
• Replace only when the appliance is unplugged and water supply is turned off; follow safety procedures for draining and securing the unit
• If other components show wear (shaft seals, basket, or fasteners), replace them as recommended by the OEM

This white timer skirt is the decorative bezel that surrounds and protects the timer control on the appliance's control console, restoring a clean, finished appearance and helping keep debris away from the timer mechanism. What it does:

• Covers and protects the timer/control opening on the console
• Secures the timer knob area and helps keep dust and crumbs out of the control cavity
• Restores a clean, uniform look when the original skirt is cracked, faded, or broken
• Helps ensure the timer knob mounts correctly and operates without obstruction

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Typically remove the timer knob and any retaining screws or clips, then lift or snap the old skirt out and install the replacement.
• Align the replacement skirt with mounting tabs and secure without forcing; excessive force can break plastic tabs.

• Helps stop wobble, grinding, or part separation caused by a loose connection
• Works with the matching threaded stud, shaft, or fitting for a proper hold

• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before servicing
• Use the matching thread size and engage threads fully; hand-start before tightening
• Tighten securely without overtightening; use the correct driver or socket for the nut
• Inspect mating threads and replace if damaged

A replacement selector knob that fits on the appliance control panel so you can choose cycles or settings with a secure, easy-to-turn control. Restores lost or damaged knobs for reliable panel operation. What it does:
