This sheet-metal pan-head screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and components to the cabinet or frame. Replacing a missing or damaged screw restores a tight fit and helps stop rattles, misalignment, and loosening.

• Fastens sheet-metal panels, covers, ducts, and brackets to the appliance chassis
• Helps keep components aligned and secure during operation
• Replace if the original is missing, rusted, stripped, or damaged
• Common symptoms: loose or vibrating panels, gaps or misaligned parts, hardware that won't tighten

• Disconnect power; shut off gas or water supply before servicing
• Support the panel or part being attached; hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading
• Use the correct driver bit; tighten snugly but do not overtighten into sheet metal
• If multiple matching screws secure a part, consider replacing them as a set for consistent hold

This replacement screw fastens trim, panels and small components to restore secure attachment and reduce rattling or movement. Use when a screw is missing, stripped, or damaged to keep parts aligned and operating quietly. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets and trim to appliance assemblies
• Prevents vibration, rattling and misalignment caused by missing or damaged fasteners
• Replaces lost or stripped screws that can allow gaps or loose parts
• Helps maintain safe, stable operation by keeping components properly fastened

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before accessing interior panels
• Use the proper screwdriver or driver bit to avoid stripping the head
• Align parts before tightening and tighten until snug—do not overtighten
• Replace only with the correct OEM part to ensure proper fit and function

An adjustable leveler that supports and raises or lowers the appliance to help stabilize it on uneven floors. Restores proper alignment to reduce rocking, vibration, and door misalignment for improved performance and safety. What it does:

• Provides height adjustment to level the cabinet and prevent rocking
• Helps doors close and seal correctly by correcting leaning or unevenness
• Reduces vibration and movement that can cause noise or wear
• Simple turn-to-adjust design for fine tuning appliance position

• Unplug the appliance (and shut off water supply for units with plumbing) before working nearby
• Support the appliance when adjusting so it does not tip; use a helper or appliance dolly as needed
• Turn the leveler by hand or with a wrench; adjust both front/back or left/right sides evenly and re-check with a level

This kit includes a selector knob (1) and thermostat knob (1).

A single pop rivet used to secure sheet-metal parts and small brackets on appliances for a permanent, vibration-resistant hold. Replaces missing or damaged rivets to restore proper attachment without welding. What it does:

• Provides a permanent blind-rivet fastening point for panels, brackets and trim.
• Replaces rivets that are sheared, loose or missing and prevents rattling or misalignment.
• Ideal where a solid, tamper-resistant join is required and screws aren't suitable.
• Works with a compatible pop-rivet tool for quick installation.

• Drill out the old rivet carefully; use the proper size hole for the replacement rivet.
• Use a dedicated pop-rivet tool and wear eye protection during installation.

A hi-limit safety switch that stops heating when temperatures get too high, protecting the appliance from overheating and helping prevent damage. Designed to replace a failed thermal cutoff to restore safe temperature control. What it does:

• Opens the heating circuit when internal temperature exceeds the safe limit to prevent overheating
• Commonly replaces a failed or intermittently opening thermal limit control
• Helps stop burners or heating elements from running unchecked when a thermostat fails
• Addresses symptoms like no heat, intermittent heating, or safety trip shutdowns

• Disconnect power before accessing heating components and wiring
• Verify the part matches the appliance diagram and wiring orientation before installation
• If corrosion or other damage is present on connectors or terminals, replace or repair per OEM guidance

This clip secures appliance panels or small components to maintain alignment and reduce vibration, restoring the original fit where a worn or broken fastener allows movement or rattling. Simple, direct-fit replacement when the original clip fails. What it does:

• Holds trim, panels, or small components in position to prevent rattling and shifting.
• Replaces broken or missing fasteners that allow loose or misaligned parts.
• Helps keep wiring harnesses or insulation routed and secured in assemblies.
• Small, inexpensive part commonly used wherever a retaining clip is specified.

• Always disconnect power (unplug or shut off circuit) before servicing the appliance.
• Remove panels or trim per the manufacturer service sheet to access the clip; note the clip orientation before removal.
• Use appropriate tools (needle-nose pliers, trim tool) and avoid over-bending the clip or adjacent parts.
• Replace them with the correct OEM-specified clips for reliable fit.

The Oven Door Glass Spacer is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This part helps maintain the structural integrity of the oven door, preventing heat escape, and ensuring the door glass remains securely in place during the oven's operation. 

Causes of a bad Oven Door Glass Spacer can range from wear and tear over time, leading to degradation or loss of the spacer, to improper installation that may cause the spacer to dislodge or fail to provide adequate support. 

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Oven Door Glass Spacer include:

• Loose or rattling oven door glass
• Uneven gaps around the door glass, indicating misalignment
• Heat leaking from around the oven door, potentially affecting cooking performance

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

This speed nut is a stamped metal retaining clip designed to hold screws or fasteners securely to appliance panels and trim. It provides a simple, vibration-resistant connection that keeps covers and components in place. What it does:

• Secures screws to thin sheet metal or panel edges where a threaded hole isn't available
• Provides a firm, vibration-resistant attachment for panels, trim, or small components
• Helps prevent screws from loosening or backing out during normal use
• Commonly used where a captive nut or clip is required for assembly or repair

• One speed nut / retaining clip

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before starting any repair
• Position the clip over the panel edge or hole so the screw can engage the clip's thread; press or tap gently until seated
• Use the correct screw size and avoid over-tightening to prevent deforming the clip or striping threads
• Wear gloves and eye protection when handling sharp sheet metal edges

This heating element warms the wash and rinse water and helps dry dishes at the end of the cycle. Replacing a failed element restores proper temperatures, cleaning performance, and drying so cycles finish as expected.

• Heats water to target temperature during wash and rinse phases
• Aids in drying by radiating heat into the tub at cycle end
• Controlled by the dishwasher's electronics to maintain proper heat
• Common symptoms of failure: water stays cool, poor drying, extended cycle times, or a visibly broken/burned element

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the dishwasher to cool before servicing
• Access is typically from inside the tub and/or beneath the unit after removing the toe panel
• Note wire positions, disconnect leads, remove retaining hardware, and carefully extract/install the element without bending it
• Ensure seals are correctly seated and tightened evenly; run a short cycle to check for leaks and heat
