STACK KIT FOR LONG VENT DRYER

This drum baffle mounts inside the rotating drum and lifts items so they tumble evenly through the cycle. Replace a cracked, loose, or missing baffle to reduce noise and restore consistent tumbling performance. What it does:

• Lifts and separates laundry as the drum turns for even tumbling
• Helps prevent clumping that can lead to poor results or longer cycles
• Maintains balanced drum movement; damage or looseness can cause rattling or scraping
• May help if items aren't tumbling well, you hear thumping, or garments snag inside the drum

• 1 drum baffle

• Disconnect power before servicing; for gas dryers, also shut off gas. For washers, turn off water supply.
• Open the door and rotate the drum to access the baffle's mounting screw(s).
• Remove the screw(s), disengage the baffle from its slots, and lift it out.
• Seat the new baffle in the slots and secure with the screw(s). Hand-spin the drum to confirm clearance before use.

• Helps prevent leaks and contamination in the covered area
• Can resolve issues like minor leaks, loose or missing cap, or rattling noises
• Restores proper fit and finish after the original cap is lost or damaged

• Disconnect power and shut off water or gas supply before servicing
• Note the orientation of the original cap for correct placement
• Hand-tighten only unless the OEM specifies otherwise; do not overtighten
• Inspect the mating surface or threads for damage before reinstalling

This is the siphon insert for the washer dispenser's bleach and softener compartments. It restores proper siphoning so additives empty at the right time and helps reduce standing water or residue in the drawer.

• Creates the siphon action that draws bleach and fabric softener from their cups during the rinse cycle
• Promotes complete dispensing and consistent rinse performance
• Helps minimize leftover liquid and residue buildup in the dispenser
• Typical symptoms include bleach or softener remaining after the cycle, standing water in the cups, or weak/irregular dispensing

• Disconnect power and turn off water before servicing
• Remove the dispenser drawer; lift out the old siphon from the bleach/softener cup
• Clean any debris in the cup; firmly seat the new siphon, aligned per the cup markings
• Reinstall the drawer and run a rinse cycle to verify proper draw and no leaks

The Control Board is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This part controls and manages the various functions and cycles of the washer, including washing, rinsing, and spinning.

• The washer not starting or completing cycles
• Error codes or flashing lights on the control panel
• Inconsistent or incorrect operation of cycles
• The washer stopping mid-cycle or not responding to inputs

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

This drain hose extension kit increases the reach of your appliance's drain line so it can connect to a farther standpipe or sink, supporting proper drainage and reducing stress on fittings that can lead to leaks. What it does:

• Extends the existing drain hose to accommodate installations where the drain connection is farther away
• Helps maintain a secure, leak-resistant connection when routed correctly
• Useful when relocating the appliance, changing cabinetry, or updating plumbing
• Common signs you may need it: hose won't reach, kinks when stretched, or occasional water near the drain line

• One drain hose extension kit

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply; have a towel or pan ready for residual water
• Join the extension to the existing drain hose with the proper coupling/clamps; tighten securely and avoid kinks or sharp bends
• Route and support the drain line per your model's installation guide and observe any maximum total hose length
• Run a short test cycle and check all joints for leaks

This washer shock absorber helps control tub movement during spin and agitation. Replacing a worn damper restores stability, reduces vibration, and helps prevent excessive noise and shaking during cycles.

• Controls suspension movement to keep the tub steady
• Helps reduce banging, walking, and excessive vibration
• Can alleviate loud thumping or rattling during spin
• Supports smoother, quieter operation when shocks wear out

• Unplug washer and turn off water supply before servicing
• Access from front or rear panel varies by model; support the tub to relieve tension
• Replace in matched positions; some washers use multiple shocks
• Each end is fully seated and locked before reassembly

This 2-pack of dryer vent clamps secures the vent hose to the dryer outlet and the wall/vent hood. A tight connection helps maintain airflow, reduce lint leaks, and keep the duct from slipping off during use.

• Tightens around the vent hose to hold it securely to the dryer exhaust collar or exterior vent
• Helps prevent hose detachment, air leaks, and lint escaping at the connection
• Supports proper exhaust airflow by keeping connections sealed and stable
• Common symptoms pointing to replacement: hose won't stay on, visible gaps or lint around fittings, rattling at the vent, or longer dry times from poor ventilation

• Disconnect power; for gas dryers, shut off gas supply before moving the appliance
• Slide a clamp over the hose, seat the hose fully on the collar, position clamp over the fitting, and tighten with a screwdriver or nut driver
• Do not overtighten; avoid crushing thin foil ducting; ensure the hose is straight and not kinked
• Restore power and verify strong airflow at the exterior exhaust

The Temperature Sensor is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. Situated within the washer tub, the temperature sensor works closely with the control module to monitor water temperatures during all cycles. It provides vital temperature readings that allow the washer to heat water properly according to cycle settings.

Causes can be normal wear over time, impact damage or cracks in the fragile sensor head. Without this crucial component providing accurate temperature feedback, the washer lacks temperature regulation ability.

Symptoms of a failed temperature sensor include:

• Inability to heat water or inconsistent heating
• Error codes or failure to advance cycles
• Functioning only on cold water cycles
• Fluctuating or inaccurate temperature readings

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

This replacement hose restores a secure, leak-resistant path for water inside your appliance. Replacing it helps stop leaks and keeps cycles running as intended.

• Carries water between internal components during operation
• Maintains a sealed path to help prevent leaks
• Helps ensure proper filling, circulation, or draining as designed
• Common symptoms include water leaking under/inside the unit, standing water, or slow/incomplete fill or drain

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Keep towels or a shallow pan ready to catch residual water
• Note hose routing and clamp positions; transfer existing clamps if they're reusable
• After installation, run a test cycle and check carefully for leaks

The Shock Absorber is an OEM part compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. It is a crucial component that helps reduce vibrations and dampens movement during the spin cycle. The shock absorber absorbs mechanical stresses to prevent the washer tub, suspension springs, and other components from wearing out prematurely.  

Causes of a bad shock absorber include wear and tear over time, cracks or breaks from heavy loads, or damage due to impact.  

Symptoms of a bad shock absorber include:

• Excessive shaking, vibration or noise during the wash and spin cycles   
• The washer walking or moving during operation
• Premature failure of other suspension parts like springs or the washer frame
• Potential leaks if movement stresses plumbing connections

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