The Hinge is an OEM part for Whirlpool electric dryers. Located on the dryer door frame, this heavy-duty metal hinge securely holds the weight of the swinging door panel. It allows for easy opening, closing, and latching of the dryer entrance through thousands of cycles. 

Causes of a faulty hinge can include wear from years of operation putting pressure on the internal bearing as the door is repeatedly swung open and shut. Accidental impacts could also bend or damage hinge components over time.

Symptoms of a bad hinge include:

• Squeaking or grinding noises coming from the hinge area  
• Increased effort needed to open or close the door
• The door sagging when open or not staying still when closed
• Difficulty centering or aligning the door seal 

This Whirlpool dryer hinge is also compatible with brands including Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and some Kenmore models.

The Valve is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. It is responsible for controlling the flow of water into the dryer's steam generator, enabling the steam function during the drying cycle.

A bad steam water inlet valve can occur due to wear and tear, sediment buildup, or malfunctioning internal components. If you notice symptoms such as no steam being produced during the drying cycle, insufficient steam generation, or water leakage around the valve, it may be time to replace this part.

Symptoms of a bad valve include:

• No steam being produced during the drying cycle
• Insufficient steam generation
• Water leakage around the valve

Repair your dryer by replacing the faulty or damaged steam water inlet valve with this genuine OEM part.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
