This console is the control panel assembly that holds the user controls and display so you can select cycles, start and monitor the appliance. It restores the interface and front-facing housing for proper operation and appearance. What it does:

• Houses buttons, knobs, touch controls and the display used to select and monitor cycles
• Provides the front-facing trim and mounting points to secure user controls
• Restores responsive control input when the original panel is cracked, faded, or physically damaged
• Resolves symptoms like unresponsive buttons, missing or damaged display area, or broken control housing

• Disconnect power before starting to avoid shock; follow manufacturer safety instructions
• Remove adjacent trim or bezels carefully to access mounting screws and wiring harnesses
• Handle the display area and finish with care to avoid scratches; reuse original fasteners when possible

This electronic control board manages a range of appliance functions and restores responsive, reliable control when the original board fails. It replaces the unit that interprets user inputs and runs timed cycles. What it does:

• Receives and processes user commands from the control panel and directs cycle operations
• Manages timing, cycle selection, and power distribution to subsystems
• Common symptoms of failure: unresponsive controls, blank or erratic display, cycles that won't start or stop, or unexpected behavior during operation
• Helps resolve faults caused by failed electronics or intermittent control issues

• Disconnect power before starting—this is an electrical component and can shock or damage the appliance if energized
• Handle the board by its edges and avoid touching components or connector pins to prevent static damage
• Verify connector alignment and seating during reinstallation; do not force connectors

The Vent Hose is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This vent hose allows air to circulate in and out of the washer, preventing pressure build-up and ensuring proper water drainage. It helps maintain the efficiency and effectiveness of the washing machine by facilitating the necessary airflow during the wash and spin cycles.

Common causes of a bad vent hose include wear and tear from regular use, blockages from lint or debris, and damage from mishandling or improper installation.

Symptoms of a bad vent hose include:

• Water not draining properly from the washer
• Unusual noises during the wash or spin cycles
• Leaks or water pooling around the washer
• Visible cracks, splits, or blockages in the hose

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

This rubber seal fits around the water temperature sensor where it passes through the tub or housing. It restores a watertight barrier at the sensor port to help prevent leaks and ensure reliable temperature feedback.

• Creates a watertight seal around the temperature sensor
• Helps prevent drips or leaks from the sensor opening
• Supports stable, accurate temperature readings during cycles
• Typical failure signs: cracked, flattened, or brittle seal; moisture at the sensor area; pooling water beneath the unit; temperature-related faults

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before servicing
• Access the sensor location and drain any remaining water
• Withdraw the sensor, remove the old seal, and clean the seating surface
• Lightly moisten the new seal with water, seat it fully, reinstall the sensor, and check for leaks during a test cycle

This Electronic Control Board is a genuine OEM replacement part compatible with Whirlpool washers.
