Mgd8b850wq Parts

A motor run capacitor that helps the appliance's motor start and run efficiently. Replacing a failing capacitor restores reliable motor operation and reduces motor noise or intermittent starting. What it does:

• Provides the phase shift needed for the motor to start and maintain proper running speed
• Commonly linked to symptoms like humming, slow or no motor start, or motors that start intermittently
• Stabilizes motor performance under load to prevent overheating or tripping
• Works as a direct replacement when matched to the original part number and electrical rating

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Capacitors can hold charge—discharge safely and verify voltage is zero before handling
• Replace with the exact part number or equivalent rating; do not mix ratings or types

The Moisture Sensor is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool washing machines. The sensor monitors moisture levels to determine when the appropriate moisture point has been reached, signaling the appliance to advance to the next step in the cycle.

Symptoms of a bad moisture sensor include: 

• Inability to advance through entire wash cycle  
• Immediate ending of cycle after short period of time
• Sensor may show moisture levels incorrectly
• LED lights indicating error codes related to moisture detection

Causes of a bad moisture sensor can be due to cracks, corrosion, or damage to its sensitive electronic components from impact or overuse. Regular cleaning and maintenance helps extend the life of the moisture sensor. 

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

This is a replacement mounting screw used to secure appliance panels and small components. It provides a correct-fit fastener to restore secure attachment and eliminate rattles or loose parts. What it does:

• Restores proper alignment when a worn or missing screw causes loose parts or noise
• Works as a direct-replacement fastener where the OEM screw specification is required

• One replacement screw

• Use the correct driver bit to avoid stripping the head; do not overtighten
• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety guidelines when accessing internal components
• If the original mounting hole or threads are damaged, repair or replace the mounting hardware before reinstalling

This exhaust pipe routes exhaust air from the appliance to the home vent, restoring proper airflow for safe, efficient operation. Use when the original pipe is cracked, bent, or leaking. What it does:

• Channels exhaust gases and lint from the appliance to the external vent
• Prevents exhaust leaks that can cause poor drying or cooking performance
• Helps maintain correct airflow to reduce overheating and moisture buildup
• Fits where a damaged or corroded exhaust connection needs replacement

• One exhaust pipe

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before servicing; follow appliance safety procedures
• Inspect surrounding seals and clamps; replace clamps or ducting if damaged
• Secure pipe with OEM-recommended fasteners and ensure vent path is clear

This exhaust pipe vents hot, moist air from the dryer to the home venting system, helping the appliance dry clothes efficiently and reduce indoor humidity. Replace a damaged or restricted pipe to restore proper airflow. What it does:

• Channels dryer exhaust air safely from the appliance to the exterior vent
• Helps prevent overheating and long dry times caused by restricted airflow
• Reduces lint buildup in the appliance by providing a clear vent path
• Commonly replaced when cracked, crushed, kinked, or badly corroded

• Disconnect power to electric dryers; shut off gas supply and disconnect for gas dryers before servicing
• Inspect existing vent path for additional damage or lint buildup and clean before installing
• Position pipe without sharp bends or kinks and secure with appropriate clamps or fasteners

This pipe plug seals an unused or service opening in a household appliance's plumbing to stop leaks and prevent debris entry. It restores a watertight closure so the appliance can operate safely and without water loss. What it does:

• Plugs open pipe or hose fittings to prevent water leaks
• Helps maintain proper water flow by sealing unused ports
• Keeps debris and contaminants out of the plumbing system
• Can stop intermittent drips originating from service openings

• One pipe plug

• Turn off water supply and power to the appliance before starting work
• Hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading; tighten only to OEM torque or finger-tight plus a quarter-turn if unspecified
• If the original used sealant or gasket, replace with the same type per OEM instructions

This replacement refrigerator door gasket seals the door to help keep cold air in and improve temperature stability. It restores the sealing surface so the appliance can cool more efficiently and reduce moisture buildup. What it does

• Replaces a worn, torn, or warped door seal to restore an airtight fit
• Helps prevent warm air leaks that can cause temperature fluctuations
• Reduces frost and condensation buildup around the door opening
• Can improve energy efficiency when the door closes properly

• Disconnect power to the appliance or unplug the refrigerator before beginning work
• Remove the old gasket by loosening retainer screws or pulling out the retainer track as applicable; compare new gasket to ensure correct orientation
• Seat the new gasket evenly into the retainer channel, starting at the top corners and working around; tighten retainers if used
• Allow the gasket to form to the door edge; avoid sharp bends or creases during installation

This replacement dryer drum restores the rotating tumbler that holds and turns clothes during the drying cycle, helping restore proper airflow and gentle fabric movement. Fits as the OEM tumbler component for compatible Whirlpool dryers. What it does:

• Replaces a worn, dented, or cracked drum to stop clothing from catching or rubbing.
• Restores the rotating surface so the dryer can tumble items evenly.
• Helps reduce abnormal noises caused by damaged drum surfaces.
• Supports proper airflow and ventilation through the dryer cabinet when installed correctly.

• Disconnect power (and gas supply for gas dryers) before starting any repair.
• High-level removal and reassembly of panels and the drive/belt assembly may be required; follow the appliance's service manual or IPL.
• Inspect rollers, belt, glides, and seals while the dryer is open—replace if worn to prevent repeat damage.
