• Pull the old knob straight off the control shaft
• Align the new knob with the shaft orientation and press it on until fully seated—do not force
• If the knob won't seat, inspect the control shaft for damage or debris

This motor isolator is a vibration-damping grommet that cushions the motor mount to reduce noise and prevent metal-to-metal contact. Replacing worn isolators helps keep the motor seated correctly and the appliance running quieter and smoother.

• Cushions the motor to minimize vibration transfer to the chassis
• Helps reduce rattling or buzzing noises during fan/blower operation
• Supports proper motor alignment and mounting stability
• A common maintenance item when rubber mounts become cracked, hardened, or missing

• Disconnect power and allow hot components to cool before service
• Access the motor mounting points; replace isolators in matched locations
• Inspect adjacent mounts and hardware; replace additional isolators as needed
• Do not overtighten fasteners—compress the grommet evenly without deforming it

This plastic terminal block insulator protects the dryer's power terminal area by covering exposed connections and helping prevent accidental shorts or arcing. Replaces a cracked or melted insulator to restore basic electrical protection at the terminal block. What it does:

• Covers and insulates the terminal block to reduce risk of electrical shorts and arcing
• Keeps wiring routed and separated at the power connection point
• Helps prevent damage from heat or contact that can lead to melting or sparking
• Commonly replaced when the original insulator is cracked, burned, or deformed

• Always disconnect power (unplug or shut off house circuit) before servicing electrical components.
• Inspect terminal block and wiring for heat damage; replace damaged wires or terminals as needed.
• Ensure terminals are cool and dry before reinstalling the insulator; seat it fully over the block for proper protection.

• 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
