Wm3431hs Parts

This heater assembly warms the wash water inside the tub so the control can reach and maintain the selected temperature. Replacing a failed element restores proper heating performance and helps return cycle times to normal. What it does:

• Heats the water in the washer's tub during applicable cycles
• Helps the control reach and hold target temperatures for better cleaning
• Failure symptoms can include cold wash water, extended cycle times, and reduced cleaning performance
• Visual damage or an open circuit on the element indicates replacement is needed

• 1 heater assembly

• Disconnect power and turn off water before servicing
• The heater mounts at the bottom of the outer tub; remove front or rear panels as required by your model to access it
• Note wire locations; loosen the center nut, press the stud to release the old seal, and carefully withdraw the element
• Seat the new gasket evenly, tighten the nut to compress the seal, then run a test cycle to check for leaks and proper heating

Secures washer hoses to pumps, tubs, and drain fittings to prevent leaks. Replace when weakened, rusty, or damaged to maintain tight connections.

This rotor position sensor (Hall sensor) tracks the direct-drive motor's rotor position and speed so the control can commutate the washer motor accurately. Replacing a failed sensor can restore proper wash/agitate and spin performance. What it does:

• Detects rotor position and speed from the stator assembly
• Sends timing feedback to the control for correct motor start, direction, and speed
• Supports smooth agitation and spin ramp-up/ramp-down
• Failure may cause: no spin or agitation, cycle stalling/pausing, or an LE motor error code

• 1 rotor position sensor assembly

• Unplug the washer and shut off water; wear protective gloves
• Access the motor at the rear of the tub; remove the back panel if needed
• Remove the rotor and stator; support the stator to protect wiring, then unclip/unscrew and replace the sensor
• Align the sensor correctly and seat the connector fully before reassembly and testing

This rubber fill hose connects the household hot water supply valve to the washing machine's water inlet valve. It delivers hot water into the wash tub during the fill cycle. Replace this hose if it is cracked, leaking, bulging, or showing signs of deterioration to prevent water damage.

Thermal fuse that protects the washer motor circuit from overheating. Interrupts power if motor temperature exceeds safe limits. Replace if washer stops mid-cycle or won't start.

Comes in a pack of four.

This is the internal fill hose that connects the water inlet valve to the wash tub inside the washing machine, delivering cold water during the fill cycle. It is a rubber or reinforced hose with fittings on each end. Replace this hose if you notice leaking underneath or behind the washer, or if the machine is not filling properly with water.

Mounts to the washer's lower frame to secure components and maintain alignment. Replace if bracket is cracked, broken, rusted, or missing hardware.

Heater assembly for washer dryer combos. Installs in the drying system to generate heat. Replace if cracked, corroded, or damaged to restore proper drying.

Secures rubber hoses to fittings with constant spring tension to prevent leaks. Replace when rusted or weakened to maintain a tight seal. Confirm fit.

This rotor assembly is the rotating half of your washer's direct-drive motor. It mounts to the rear of the tub and, working with the stator, spins the drum for wash and spin cycles to restore smooth operation.

• Couples with the stator to drive the inner tub during wash and spin
• Helps resolve no- or slow-spin complaints
• Can address a drum that won't turn or turns intermittently
• May reduce grinding/clicking from the rear caused by damaged rotor magnets

• Unplug the washer and turn off water supply before servicing
• Access from the rear; remove the center bolt and pull the rotor straight off the shaft
• Magnets are strong—keep fingers clear; align splines/keyway on reinstallation
• Tighten the center bolt securely and inspect the stator and sensor while open

This DC fan motor assembly restores fan-driven airflow and circulation in compatible appliances, helping return normal cooling and ventilation performance. Use it to replace a failed or noisy fan motor for more reliable operation. What it does:

• Drives the appliance fan to maintain proper air circulation for cooling or ventilation.
• Replaces a motor that has stopped running, helping address reduced or no airflow.
• Can resolve loud, grinding, or rattling noises coming from the fan area.
• Help with inconsistent or warmer-than-normal temperatures caused by a failed fan.

• Disconnect power before starting — unplug the appliance or switch off the breaker.
• Photograph wiring and panel locations before removal to ensure correct reconnection.
• Handle sharp sheet metal and evaporator/coil areas with care; use gloves as needed.
• Verify the part number on your appliance and compare connectors and mounting before installation.

This is a rubber gasket that seals the washing machine tub to prevent water from leaking during wash and spin cycles. It fits around the tub opening and maintains a watertight barrier. Replace this seal if you notice water leaking from around the tub area, or if the gasket appears cracked, hardened, or deformed.

Fix washer leaks with this hose clamp. Secures hoses to pumps and valves, preventing water leaks and disconnections during wash cycles. Simple repair.

This hinge spring restores proper tension to the door so it opens and closes smoothly and stays aligned. Replacing a fatigued spring helps prevent sagging or slamming and supports a consistent, reliable door close.

• Provides the return tension/counterbalance for the door hinge mechanism
• Assists smooth opening/closing and helps the door stay properly aligned when latched
• Helps maintain consistent closing force over time
• Failure symptoms include: door drops quickly, won't stay aligned or fully closed, weak/squeaking spring action

• Disconnect power before service; allow any hot surfaces to cool
• The hinge and spring are under tension—support the door and release/install tension carefully
• Note spring orientation and hole positions before removal; match them on installation
• Access may require removing trim or the door; keep fasteners organized for reassembly
