The Rear Panel is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. It is an outer protective panel located on the back interior of the dryer drum compartment and helps form the structural walls. The rear panel joins other interior pieces securely and assists with heat retention during the drying cycles. 

Causes of a bad rear panel can include impacts or accidents that damage the material, failure of mounting brackets over time, or general wear and tear cracks or breaks from repeated drum rotation and clothing.

Symptoms of a bad rear panel include:

• Visible bulges, cracks or holes in the rear drum walls
• Inability to properly secure interior components  
• Warm air escaping from gaps in the walls, reducing efficiency
• Possible lint or moisture leaks compromising insulation integrity

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