Rm278bxp-0 Parts

This time-delay fuse protects the appliance's power circuit by opening when current exceeds a safe level while tolerating brief inrush current. Replacing a blown fuse can help restore power once the root cause is corrected. What it does:

• Protects the line and control circuits from shorts and overloads
• Time-delay design helps prevent nuisance opening during startup surges
• When open, the unit will be completely dead—no display, lights, or response
• Repeatedly opening usually indicates an unresolved electrical fault that needs diagnosis

• 1 time-delay fuse

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; some appliances can retain dangerous high voltage
• Replace only with the same type and rating specified by the manufacturer
• Inspect the fuse holder and wiring for heat damage or loose connections before reassembly
• If the new fuse opens immediately, stop and diagnose the underlying cause; never bypass or upsize a fuse

• Visual clues: worn/flattened pin surfaces or a missing pin at the hinge location

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) and allow the appliance to cool completely before service
• Support the door to prevent strain on the remaining hinge while you work
• Note hinge orientation, remove any retaining clip/screw, slide out the old pin, and seat the new pin fully
• Inspect related hinge bushings or washers while open and replace if worn

This anchor spring maintains tension on the parts it secures, keeping the associated component aligned and stable during use. Replacing a fatigued or broken spring restores a snug fit and reliable, rattle-free operation.

• Maintains correct axial position so parts don't slide off during use
• Helps reduce wobble, vibration, or rattling caused by loose assemblies
• Typical symptoms: part won't stay seated, excess play or movement, scraping/rattling noises, or a visibly deformed ring

• Disconnect power; shut off water or gas if applicable. Wear eye protection and gloves
• Note ring orientation; use appropriate snap-ring/circlip pliers or picks—avoid overstretching
• Clean the groove and seat the ring fully; secure fit
