This front counterweight mounts to the washer's outer tub to help balance and stabilize the drum during spin. Replacing a damaged weight can reduce vibration and noise and help prevent the machine from walking. What it does:

• Adds mass at the front of the tub to counterbalance loads during spin
• Helps control vibration, shaking, and banging noises
• Can resolve out-of-balance interruptions or excessive movement
• Visible cracks or broken mounting ears indicate the weight needs replacement

• One front counterweight

• Disconnect power and water; use proper lifting techniques—this part is heavy
• Support the tub and remove front cabinet components/door boot as needed for access
• Remove and retain mounting bolts; tighten bolts evenly when reinstalling
• Inspect mounting points and suspension components while accessible; replace if worn

This L-shaped flowmeter hose is part of the washer's water inlet circuit. It routes water through the flow sensor and maintains a tight, leak-free connection, helping the machine fill accurately and operate as designed.

• Channels incoming water through the flowmeter for correct fill measurement
• Maintains a secure, leak-resistant connection within the fill system
• Typical failure signs: water dripping during fill, visible cracking/hardening, loose fit, or kinks restricting flow
• A damaged or leaking hose can contribute to inaccurate fill sensing or fill-related errors

• Disconnect power and shut off both water supplies before servicing
• Note routing/orientation; transfer existing clamps or install new ones if needed
• Fully seat hose on each fitting and secure clamps without over-tightening
• Restore water and power, then run a fill to check all connections for leaks

This replacement ball is the small spherical component used in select Whirlpool-built mechanisms. It acts as a moving seal or detent to control flow or position, restoring smooth, reliable operation when the original ball is worn or missing. What it does:

• Provides the sealing or detent action within its valve, hinge, or track assembly
• Helps prevent backflow, leaks, or unwanted movement
• Restores smooth operation when mechanisms feel rough, bind, or won't stay in position
• Replace if the original is deformed, pitted, corroded, or missing

• 1 ball

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply if applicable
• Access the specific assembly per your model's service documentation and note part order
• Place the ball in its seat/track with any companion spring or seal as designed
• Inspect mating surfaces and related seals or springs and replace if worn

This dishwasher door latch lever links the handle to the latch and safety switches so the door can secure closed and the cycle can start. Replacing a cracked or worn lever restores reliable latching and starts. What it does:

• Transfers handle movement to the latch mechanism and door switches
• Helps the control recognize a fully closed door so the dishwasher will run
• Contributes to keeping the door securely closed during operation
• Resolves: cycle won't start, door won't latch or stay closed, need to hold door to run, loose/floppy handle feel

• 1 lever

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing the door
• Open the door and remove inner door panel screws to access the latch/handle area
• Note the original lever's orientation; move any springs/clips to the new lever and seat it fully in the pivot
• Reassemble, verify smooth handle action, and ensure the door latches and a cycle initiates

This Marquardt ground switch completes the appliance's ground connection so controls and safety systems have a proper reference. Replace a failed ground switch to restore reliable grounding and help eliminate related electrical faults. What it does:

• Provides the ground connection path used by controls and safety circuits.
• Replaced when continuity tests fail or when appliances have intermittent power, control errors, or nuisance breaker trips.
• Restores correct electrical grounding to help reduce fault conditions and erratic control behavior.
• Matches the original switch form and electrical connector layout for a direct replacement.

• Disconnect all power (unplug appliance and/or shut off breaker) before beginning service.
• Photograph or label wiring and connector positions before removal; transfer connectors to the new switch exactly.
• Inspect connectors and wiring for damage; replace any frayed or heat-damaged wiring.

This RFI noise filter conditions the AC power entering your microwave, reducing electrical interference and helping protect and stabilize the control and power circuits. Replace it if the unit is dead or trips a breaker when starting.

• Filters radio-frequency/electromagnetic noise on the incoming AC line
• Helps stabilize power to the control, relays, lights, and fans
• Failure may cause no display or intermittent loss of power
• A shorted filter may blow the line fuse or trip the household breaker when plugged in or when Start is pressed

• Disconnect power by unplugging the microwave or switching off the dedicated circuit breaker
• For over-the-range units, remove the microwave from the wall to safely access internal components
• Label and transfer wires to matching terminals; mount the filter securely and route wiring away from sharp edges

This part is a replacement outer tub. This part's intended use is to repair a broken or defective outer tub in washing machines.The outer tub fits over the spin basket and is what ensures that the machine doesn't leak during use by sealing in the water. If this part is broken, water may drip or leak, and thus the front tub should be immediately replaced. It's important that the appliance is unplugged before any attempt is made to replace this part. Work gloves are recommended for proper safety and protection.This is a genuine OEM part made by Whirlpool and has been sourced directly from the manufacturer. This is an authentic OEM replacement part made of high-quality materials. This outer tub can be used with different models of washing machines that have been manufactured by Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Kenmore, Scotsman, and some other brands. It is sold individually.

Size: 8-18 x 1/2 inch.

This drawer hook is the retainer that keeps an appliance drawer securely seated while still allowing easy release for cleaning or service. Replacing a worn or broken hook restores smooth, reliable drawer operation.
