W2232 Parts

Mounting screw used to secure panels, trim, brackets, and small appliance components. Replace a missing or damaged fastener to restore proper fit, reduce vibration, and keep parts aligned for safe operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, control boards, brackets, and trim to maintain correct assembly
• Replaces stripped, broken, or missing screws that cause loose or rattling parts
• Helps prevent misalignment that can interfere with doors, knobs, or covers
• Standard fastener interface — use the correct driver and size for a secure fit

• Disconnect power and/or gas and follow appliance safety procedures before servicing
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Do not overtighten; snug until secure to avoid damage to threads or surrounding parts
• If threads are damaged, replace the mating component or use the correct thread-repair method

This lid switch housing secures and protects the washer's lid switch assembly so the machine can detect the lid position reliably. It replaces a cracked or broken housing to restore proper switch alignment and protection. What it does:

• Holds the lid switch assembly in the correct position for reliable lid detection.
• Shields the switch from impacts and debris that can cause intermittent failures.
• Common symptom: washer won't start, won't spin, or shows lid-lock-related errors when the housing is damaged.
• Restores consistent electrical/mechanical engagement between the lid and switch when installed correctly.

• Unplug the appliance before beginning any service to avoid shock or injury.
• Basic hand tools are typically needed; follow the OEM diagram for correct removal and reassembly.
• Inspect the lid switch and wiring while replacing the housing; replace any damaged components.

This gasket seals the basket to the center shaft to help prevent leaks and reduce noise from worn or damaged seals. It restores a proper seal between the tub/basket and the drive shaft for reliable operation. What it does:

• Seals the gap between the basket/tub and the center drive shaft to help prevent water from leaking into the motor/tub area
• Helps reduce rubbing noise caused by a worn or torn seal
• Restores a tight fit after seal failure, wear, or damage
• Common symptom: water leakage from the tub area or visible wear around the shaft opening

• Refer to the exploded parts diagram for correct positioning and orientation
• Inspect mating surfaces for damage or residue and clean before installing the new gasket
• Replace only when the appliance is unplugged and water supply is turned off; follow safety procedures for draining and securing the unit
• If other components show wear (shaft seals, basket, or fasteners), replace them as recommended by the OEM

This locknut is a small threaded retaining nut used to secure rotating and stationary appliance components, helping keep assemblies tight and stable during operation. It prevents parts from loosening and reduces vibration-related issues. What it does:

• Secures shafts, pulleys, or fittings to prevent axial movement
• Keeps assemblies fastened under normal vibration and load
• Helps stop wobble, grinding, or part separation caused by a loose connection
• Works with the matching threaded stud, shaft, or fitting for a proper hold

• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before servicing
• Use the matching thread size and engage threads fully; hand-start before tightening
• Tighten securely without overtightening; use the correct driver or socket for the nut
• Inspect mating threads and replace if damaged

This screw is a factory-style mounting fastener used to secure appliance panels and components. It replaces worn, stripped, or missing screws to restore proper fit and reduce rattling. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, or trim to the appliance frame
• Keeps components aligned to prevent vibration and noise
• Replaces damaged or corroded fasteners that can cause loose parts
• Helps maintain safe, stable operation of moving or load-bearing assemblies

• Turn off power and unplug the appliance before servicing
• Use the correct driver bit and match thread engagement to avoid stripping
• Tighten snugly but avoid over-torquing which can crack plastic or strip threads
• Wear eye protection and keep small parts away from children and pets

This replacement screw fastens appliance panels and components to restore secure mounting and stop rattling or loose parts. A basic, direct-fit fastener for routine repairs and reassembly. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, trim, or internal components to prevent movement and vibration
• Replaces missing or stripped screws that cause loose parts or rattling noises
• Restores reliable fastener retention for safe, stable operation
• Works wherever the OEM-specified screw is required for proper assembly

• Use the matching driver/socket and turn slowly to avoid stripping the head or threads
• Tighten until snug; do not over-torque to prevent damage to threads or housings
• Power off and unplug the appliance before attempting any repair
• If other fasteners or damaged mating threads are found, inspect surrounding components and replace as needed

Size: 8-32 x 1/4 inch.

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

This replacement door handle restores a secure, comfortable grip for opening and closing the appliance door. Built to match the OEM fit and mounting points, it replaces worn, cracked, or broken handles to improve everyday use. What it does:

• Replaces a damaged or worn door handle so the door can be opened and closed easily
• Provides the correct mounting points and alignment for a factory fit
• Restores a secure grip and normal operation when original handle is loose, cracked, or broken
• Helps prevent further damage to the door edge or trim caused by using a broken handle

• Disconnect power (and water, for appliances with water connections) before starting any repair.
• Installation typically requires removing the inner door panel or trim; keep screws and fasteners organized.
• Hand tools only—avoid over-tightening fasteners to prevent cracking the replacement handle.
