The Shipping Bolt is an OEM part for LG washing machines, designed to secure the washing machine's drum during transportation. These bolts are important for preventing damage to the drum and suspension system by immobilizing the drum, thereby avoiding any excessive movement or vibrations that could occur while moving the appliance. 

Causes of a bad shipping bolt can include improper removal during installation, damage from handling, or degradation over time if it was left in place during operation. A damaged or missing shipping bolt can lead to issues with the washing machine's drum alignment and overall stability.

Symptoms that indicate the shipping bolts need removal or installation include:

• Excessive noise or vibrations during operation, suggesting the bolts were not removed after installation.
• Damage to the washing machine's drum or suspension system after moving the appliance without the bolts properly installed.

This OEM LG part can also be used on Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

The Hinge Pin is an OEM part for LG washing machines. It serves as a pivot point for the washer door, allowing it to open and close smoothly. This component is crucial for maintaining the proper alignment and function of the washer door, ensuring a secure and reliable seal during operation.

Common causes of a bad hinge pin include frequent use leading to wear and tear, physical damage from accidental impacts, or rust and corrosion over time. A compromised hinge pin can result in misalignment of the door, affecting the washing machine's ability to close properly and maintain an effective seal.

Symptoms of a bad hinge pin include:

• Difficulty opening or closing the washer door
• Door not staying securely closed during operation
• Squeaking or grinding noises when the door is moved
• Visible wear or damage to the hinge pin

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore models.

The Tub Bearing is an OEM replacement part for LG washing machines. This component is essential for the smooth rotation of the washer drum, reducing friction and ensuring quiet, efficient operation during wash and spin cycles.

Causes of a bad tub bearing can include wear and tear from regular use, exposure to water and detergent, or overloading the washing machine. Over time, the bearing can degrade, leading to increased friction and noise.

Symptoms of a bad tub bearing include:

• Loud noises during the spin cycle, such as grinding or roaring
• The drum wobbling or moving excessively
• Water leaking from the bottom of the washer
• Poor washing performance or the drum not spinning properly

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore models.

The Air Chamber is an OEM part for LG washing machines. This part connects to the pressure switch and ensures the washer machine fills with the correct amount of water for the selected cycle. 

Causes of a bad  Air Chamber can include clogging due to detergent residue or debris, cracks or perforations that lead to air leaks, and aging of the material, which might compromise its integrity and function.

Symptoms of a faulty Air Chamber include:

• Inaccurate water level readings leading to overfilling or insufficient water during cycles
• Unusual noises during the fill cycle, indicating air escaping
• The washing machine failing to start the wash cycle due to improper water level detection
• Error codes displayed on the machine that relate to water level issues

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.

The Tub Bearing is an OEM part for LG washing machines. This bearing supports the washer drum, allowing it to spin smoothly during the wash and spin cycles. The tub bearing ensures the drum rotates quietly and efficiently, contributing to the overall performance and longevity of the washing machine.

Causes of a bad tub bearing can include regular wear and tear, exposure to heavy loads, or moisture and detergent residue leading to corrosion. 

Symptoms of a bad tub bearing include:

• Loud noises or grinding sounds during the spin cycle
• The washer drum not spinning properly or wobbling
• Water leaks from the bottom of the washer
• Excessive vibration or shaking during operation

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.

This inlet hose channels household water to the appliance's fill system. Replacing a worn or leaking hose restores proper water flow and helps protect floors and internal components from water damage.

• Directs water from the household supply to the unit's inlet/fill assembly
• Maintains a watertight path to prevent drips and leaks
• Replaces hoses that are cracked, swollen, kinked, or mineral-fouled
• Common symptoms: leaks at fittings or beneath the unit, slow or no fill, intermittent filling, or water-related error messages

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Place a towel or pan to catch residual water and relieve line pressure slowly
• Route the hose without kinks; ensure sealing surfaces and/or washers are clean and properly seated
• Secure connections per the OEM design (compression fitting or clamp); restore water and check carefully for leaks on the first run

This pivot hanger assembly supports and stabilizes the appliance component it mounts to, restoring smooth movement and alignment. Replace a worn or damaged pivot to reduce noise and prevent misalignment that can affect operation. What it does:

• Acts as the pivot point for the hanger to support the drum/door assembly and maintain correct alignment

• Basic hand tools may be required; follow the appliance service manual for disassembly steps
• Inspect surrounding components (mounts, bearings, fasteners) and replace if worn

This lifter assembly is the drum baffle inside the washer's inner tub. It lifts and tumbles laundry as the basket turns—replacing a cracked or missing lifter restores proper turnover, helps prevent fabric damage, and quiets thumping noises.

• Provides the lift/turn action that moves clothes through water and detergent
• Helps distribute loads to reduce tangling and improve cleaning results
• A loose, broken, or missing baffle can cause rattling or scraping noises
• Damage can lead to poor turnover or fabric snagging

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear gloves—the inner drum edges can be sharp
• Access from the drum opening; remove the old lifter by releasing tabs or removing screws (varies by model)
• Align the new lifter with the inner-tub slots, lock tabs in place, and secure as designed
• Verify all baffles are firmly attached before running a test cycle

This water inlet valve assembly controls and regulates the flow of water into your washer during fill. A working valve helps the washer start and complete cycles reliably without leaks, overfilling, or long fill times.

• Opens and closes to allow household water to enter when the control calls for a wash or rinse
• Shuts off water flow when not energized to prevent unwanted filling
• Helps maintain proper water levels and flow for consistent performance
• Common symptoms: no fill or slow fill, continuous filling or overflow, leaks at the valve or hose connections, or buzzing with little/no water flow

• Unplug the appliance and shut off water supplies before servicing
• Place towels or a pan to catch residual water and relieve line pressure
• Label or photograph connectors/hoses; transfer them one at a time to the new valve
• Tighten hose fittings snugly and run a test fill to check for leaks

Outer door boot clamp secures the washer's door boot to the front panel and tub, restoring the watertight seal and helping prevent the boot from shifting or separating during wash cycles. What it does:
