The Switch Mounting Screw is an OEM part compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. This screw securely mounts the cycle selector switch within the control console assembly. Proper fastening ensures dependable operation of control functions.  

Causes of a bad mounting screw can stem from stress cracks developing over multiple years of operation. Vibrations accumulate, slowly loosening connections housed in a wet environment.

Symptoms of a bad mounting screw include:

• Loose or rattling switch within the console face  
• Difficulty selecting cycles as buttons wobble out of place
• Water intrusion hastening corrosion of electrical terminals
• Potential shock hazards if live connections are exposed

This Whirlpool replacement screw restores a tight mounting point. It is compatible with brands like Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Rear Panel is an OEM part compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. As the rear housing component, it protects internal mechanisms from debris while providing structure and stability to the cabinet. Its rigid design assists with even weight distribution to minimize vibrations. 

Symptoms of a bad rear panel can include:

• Warping or flexing of the panel material over time
• Cracks developing from pressure changes in the tub area
• Dents compromising the panel's integrity from heavy loads 

Causes of a bad rear panel washer stem from long-term use, with stress and strain accumulating from years of use. Agitator movement and unbalanced loads can warp the panel out of shape.

This OEM Whirlpool replacement rear panel helps restore the washer's protective barrier. It is compatible with additional brands like Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This wire shield is a molded protective cover that helps keep wiring routed and protected from heat, abrasion and moving parts. It prevents chafing and reduces the risk of shorts for a safer appliance operation. What it does:

• Covers and routes wiring to protect insulation from heat and friction
• Prevents wires from contacting sharp edges or moving components
• Helps stop intermittent shorts, arcing, or wiring damage that can cause odor or failures
• Maintains proper wire position to support consistent electrical connections

• One wire shield

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work
• Secure with existing clips or fasteners; do not force or modify the part
• If wiring insulation is melted or damaged, replace wiring/harness before reassembly

The Spanner Nut is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. As a critical component, the spanner nut attaches and secures the rear bearing housing to the tub assembly. It maintains proper alignment of internal components and prevents misalignment that can lead to failure. 

Causes of a bad spanner nut can include wear and tear over time, stripping of threads due to over-tightening, or damage from impact or corrosion.  

Symptoms of a bad spanner nut include:

• Vibration or excessive noise during spin cycles
• Rubbing or grinding noises from internal components  
• Reduced spin efficiency and unbalanced loads
• Premature failures of other components like belts or bearings

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

This lower wire harness routes power and signals between the control and the components beneath the tub on select 4.7/4.8-cu ft top-load washers. Replacing a damaged harness restores reliable connections and helps resolve intermittent motor or pump operation. What it does:

• Distributes power and control signals to lower-cabinet components
• Supports proper operation of the drive motor, drain pump, and related parts
• Typical symptoms: no spin or agitate, won't drain, intermittent operation, or visible heat damage/corroded connectors
• Match by part number for correct fit on 4.7/4.8-cu ft platform models

• 1 lower wire harness assembly

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing
• Access the underside per your model (tilt the washer or remove panels as required)
• Transfer one connector at a time; route along the factory path and secure with existing clips/ties away from moving parts and sharp edges
• After installation, run a diagnostic or test cycle to normal operation

The Sound Shield is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washers. It is a sheet metal panel installed behind the tub that helps reduce noise and vibration during spin cycles. With absorptive insulation, the sound shield dampens noise produced internally. 

Symptoms of a damaged sound shield include:

• Excessively loud operation, especially during high-speed spins
• Rattles, clanks, or resonant noises from inside the washer  
• Potentially weakened structure allowing tub movement
• Causes of a damaged sound shield can include tears or dents sustained over many high-speed spin cycles. Constant vibration may cause stress cracks or loose rivets.

 It is also compatible with some  Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, and Kenmore brands.
