This clutch spring cap retains and protects the clutch spring in your washer's drive/clutch assembly, maintaining proper tension. Replacing a worn or missing cap helps the clutch engage smoothly and reduces slipping and noise during spin.

• Secures the clutch spring within the clutch assembly to prevent movement or dislodging
• Maintains correct spring preload for consistent clutch engagement
• Can help reduce clutch slip that appears as weak/no spin, slow spin ramp-up, or intermittent spinning
• Common signs of trouble: rattling or scraping near the drive, burning smell, or a visibly damaged/missing cap

• Unplug the appliance and shut off water before servicing
• Access the clutch per your model's service procedure; removing the gearcase/transmission and clutch may be required
• Carefully relieve spring tension and note the orientation of the spring and cap before removal
• Inspect the spring, clutch lining, and related hardware; replace any worn components during reassembly

Straight knurled pin that secures knobs or small components to a shaft for a tight, slip-resistant fit. Replaces a worn or missing pin to stop loose, wobbly, or spinning knobs and restore reliable engagement. What it does:

• Secures knobs, dials or small parts to control shafts by providing a press-fit, knurled surface.
• Prevents wobble, slipping, or spinning of control knobs that won't turn with the shaft.
• Common service symptom: knob spins freely or fails to engage controls.
• Used where a small metal pin is required to lock a component onto a splined or smooth shaft.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before servicing.
• Remove the knob or access panel to reach the shaft; pin is typically press-fit.
• Removal/installation may require needle-nose pliers, a small punch, or a bench press; protect surrounding parts from damage.
• Keep small parts away from children and follow appliance safety guidelines; replace mating hardware if the shaft or hole is damaged.

Replacement flexible hose that routes water inside your appliance, restoring secure flow and helping prevent leaks or drainage problems caused by cracked, kinked, or worn hoses. What it does:

• Common symptom fix: visible leaks, water pooling beneath the appliance, or reduced/irregular water flow.
• Fits in-line with existing clamps and fittings to maintain proper routing.

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting any repair.
• Inspect and replace clamps or fittings if corroded or damaged; use proper-size clamps for a secure seal.

This spring damper assembly cushions and stabilizes the appliance drum during spin cycles, reducing vibration and helping maintain smooth, balanced operation. It restores proper drum support and motion control for safer, quieter performance. What it does:

• Absorbs and dampens drum movement to reduce vibration and banging during spin
• Helps keep the drum properly aligned to prevent wobbling or rubbing
• Can resolve symptoms such as loud thumping, excessive vibration, or uneven spinning
• Works as the suspension support between the drum and cabinet to improve cycle stability

• Disconnect power (and water, if applicable) before beginning any repair
• Handle springs and mounting points carefully—springs are under tension and can snap if released improperly
• Installation may require partial disassembly of the cabinet or drum; follow the OEM service manual or instructions

This agitator cap covers the top of the washer agitator, restoring the finished appearance and helping keep the agitator post and fastener protected from lint and moisture. Ideal for replacing cracked, faded, or missing caps. What it does:

• Covers the agitator retaining bolt/fastener to reduce exposure and debris buildup
• Helps prevent fabric from snagging on an exposed agitator top
• Restores finished look to the agitator after damage or wear
• Useful when the original cap is cracked, broken, or discolored

• Disconnect power to the washer before servicing.
• This cap typically snaps into place or fits over the agitator post; some models require partial agitator removal.
• Use basic hand tools if agitator removal is necessary; avoid forcing plastic parts to prevent breakage.

This brake spring restores the tensioning force needed for the appliance's brake mechanism so the drum/rotating assembly holds and releases correctly. Replaces a worn or broken brake spring to help restore normal stopping behavior. What it does:

• Provides tension for the brake assembly so the drum or shaft can stop and hold when power is removed
• Commonly replaced when brake action is weak, noisy, or the drum keeps turning after power-off
• Helps prevent uncontrolled rotation that can affect spin/stop cycles or safety
• Simple mechanical part — no electrical connections or calibration needed

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Inspect surrounding brake components and mounting points; replace any damaged hardware
• Use proper tools to remove and install the spring — springs are under tension and can snap back

This U-bend retainer secures the drain U-bend or trap tubing in place to prevent leaks and keep plumbing routed safely under the appliance. It's a small but important clip that helps maintain proper drain alignment. What it does:

• Holds the U-shaped drain/trap tubing securely to the appliance drain outlet
• Helps prevent the drain hose from slipping free and causing leaks
• Keeps the drain line routed to avoid kinks or contact with moving parts
• Commonly replaced when the original clip is broken, cracked, or missing

• One U-bend retainer clip

• Basic hand tools may be required; disconnect power and water supply before servicing
• Remove any obstructing panels to access the drain outlet area
• Press the clip into position over the U-bend until it snaps or seats securely

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.
