• Eliminates rattles or vibration caused by a cracked or loose cover

• One replacement outer access cover

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before starting any repair
• Remove adjacent panels or fasteners as needed to access the cover; basic hand tools usually required
• Handle edges carefully to avoid scratching the finish; align tabs and secure all fasteners

This exhaust pipe routes exhaust air from the appliance to the home vent, restoring proper airflow for safe, efficient operation. Use when the original pipe is cracked, bent, or leaking. What it does:

• Channels exhaust gases and lint from the appliance to the external vent
• Prevents exhaust leaks that can cause poor drying or cooking performance
• Helps maintain correct airflow to reduce overheating and moisture buildup
• Fits where a damaged or corroded exhaust connection needs replacement

• One exhaust pipe

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before servicing; follow appliance safety procedures
• Inspect surrounding seals and clamps; replace clamps or ducting if damaged
• Secure pipe with OEM-recommended fasteners and ensure vent path is clear

This exhaust pipe vents hot, moist air from the dryer to the home venting system, helping the appliance dry clothes efficiently and reduce indoor humidity. Replace a damaged or restricted pipe to restore proper airflow. What it does:

• Channels dryer exhaust air safely from the appliance to the exterior vent
• Helps prevent overheating and long dry times caused by restricted airflow
• Reduces lint buildup in the appliance by providing a clear vent path
• Commonly replaced when cracked, crushed, kinked, or badly corroded

• Disconnect power to electric dryers; shut off gas supply and disconnect for gas dryers before servicing
• Inspect existing vent path for additional damage or lint buildup and clean before installing
• Position pipe without sharp bends or kinks and secure with appropriate clamps or fasteners

This control panel is the user interface assembly that provides the push-button and display controls for your appliance, restoring access to cycle selection and status feedback. It replaces a cracked, unresponsive, or intermittently working panel. What it does:

• Houses the touch/push buttons and display that let you select cycles, options, and start/stop the appliance
• Sends user commands to the main control so cycles begin and settings register correctly
• Common symptoms it can resolve: unresponsive or stuck buttons, blank or flickering display, or incorrect control feedback
• Restores normal control operation when the exterior keypad or display glass is damaged

• One control panel assembly as shown

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before starting any repair
• Remove trim or console fasteners carefully to avoid damaging clips or display lens
• Handle the display and ribbon cable gently; align connectors securely during reassembly

This shield is a molded protective cover that guards internal appliance components from moisture and debris, helping prevent damage and maintain reliable operation. It fits into place to keep nearby parts shielded and aligned. What it does:

• Covers and protects internal components from water, grease, and small debris
• Helps direct moisture away from sensitive parts to reduce corrosion risk
• Prevents rubbing and wear between adjacent parts that can cause noise
• Aids proper alignment and sealing of nearby panels and assemblies

• Disconnect power and water supply before beginning any repair
• Inspect mounting tabs and surrounding seals; replace any damaged fasteners
• Snap or screw the shield into the existing mounting points without forcing
• Replace those components before reassembly

This cable tie secures wiring and the power cord to the appliance chassis to help prevent chafing, pinching, or loose connections. Simple, low-cost part that restores proper wire routing and strain relief. What it does

• Holds wiring and harnesses in place to prevent rubbing against sharp edges

• Keeps harnesses routed for correct clearance and component access
• Useful during repairs to restore original wire routing and strain relief

• One cable tie (wire harness retainer)

• Safety first: disconnect the appliance from power before inspecting or replacing wiring components
• Remove the damaged or existing retainer and route harnesses to match original OEM routing before installing the new tie
• Trim excess tie tail; do not overtighten—secure, but avoid crushing wires
• Replace any tie that's melted, cracked, or otherwise damaged rather than reusing it
