This is a motor harness intended for use with washing machines. The motor harness is a wiring component that's attached to the washing machine's motor and is used to conduct electricity between the motor and the PCB. Wear and tear, damage, or other issues can arise with the motor harness over time. When there is a malfunction or failure with this component, a replacement part is necessary to continue the appliance's efficient and safe use.Signs that something has gone wrong with the washing machine's motor harness include intermittent operations or a device that won't run at all. Replacing the motor harness is a relatively easy task. Disconnect the appliance from power and wear work gloves for safety. Ensure all connections between the motor and motor harness are secure before plugging the washing machine back into to avoid the motor's accidental activation.This motor harness is an authentic OEM replacement part. It is sold as an individual unit. The motor harness is made of high-quality, durable materials. It comes sourced directly from the manufacturer to ensure compatibility. The motor harness can be installed in various models of washing machines. It fits correctly into appliances produced by Kenmore and LG.

This water inlet valve assembly regulates the flow of water into your washer during the fill and rinse cycle. Replacing a sticking or leaking valve restores proper filling and helps prevent drips when the washer is off. What it does:

• Controls and directs incoming water into the washer as signaled by the control
• Opens and closes to reach target fill levels, then shuts off water flow
• Symptoms include: washer won't fill or fills very slowly
• Symptoms include: water keeps running or drips into the tub when the washer is off
• Symptoms include: leaks from the valve body or hose connections at the back of the washer

• One water inlet valve assembly

• Unplug the washer and shut off both water supplies before starting
• Keep a towel or tray handy and relieve line pressure before removing hoses
• Move hoses and wire connectors to the new valve one at a time to avoid mix-ups
• Turn water back on, check all connections for leaks, then run a test fill

This is the direct-drive rotor for the dishwasher wash motor. It pairs with the stator to spin the impeller and circulate wash water through the spray arms, helping restore proper spray pressure and quieter operation when the original rotor is worn.

• Couples with the stator to drive the circulation pump impeller
• Moves wash water through the spray arms for consistent cleaning performance
• Common failure signs: little or no spray, poor cleaning, loud humming or grinding from the pump area, or intermittent wash action
• Physical damage or weakened magnets can prevent proper rotation

• Disconnect power and water supply and pull the unit forward for access
• Remove the toe-kick and drain remaining water at the sump
• Remove the pump cover and center fastener, then pull the old rotor straight off
• Seat the new rotor fully, reassemble, and run a test cycle to check operation and leaks

This thermistor seal is the grommet that seals the temperature sensor where it passes through the washing machine's outer tub. Replacing a worn seal restores a watertight fit and helps prevent leaks that can damage surrounding components. What it does

• Forms a watertight barrier around the tub temperature sensor (thermistor)
• Helps keep the sensor securely positioned in the mounting port
• Common failure symptoms: water leaking during cycles, puddles under the unit, visible cracking/hardening of the grommet, or a loose sensor fit

• 1 thermistor seal

• Disconnect power and water; drain any remaining water from the tub
• Access the thermistor on the outer tub, disconnect its harness, and remove the sensor
• Pull out the old seal, clean the opening, press in the new seal, and reinstall the sensor fully seated
• Run a brief test cycle and check for leaks before final reassembly

This replacement bolt secures the drum spider within the washer tub assembly. Replacing worn or missing hardware helps keep the basket properly mounted to reduce wobble, vibration, and noise during spin.

• Fastens the spider to the inner wash basket
• Maintains proper alignment and balance of the basket during spin
• Use when original bolts are rusted, stripped, loose, or missing
• Symptoms include rattling, thumping, off-balance errors, or visible basket wobble

• Unplug the appliance; shut off water and remove hoses if access requires moving the unit
• Access typically requires panel removal to reach the inner basket and spider
• Replace any damaged bolts and tighten evenly in a crisscross pattern; do not overtighten
• Inspect the spider and basket for corrosion or cracks before reassembly

This locker hook engages the appliance's latch/lock mechanism to keep the door securely closed during operation. Replacing a worn or bent hook restores reliable latching and helps prevent nuisance door/lock errors and cycle interruptions.

• Interfaces with the door lock/latch to secure the door during use
• Allows the safety interlock to confirm the door is closed
• Common symptoms: door won't latch or stay closed, needing to hold/push door to start, door/lock error messages
• Physical signs of failure: bent hook, worn contact surface, or cracked/broken mounting ears

• Disconnect power; turn off water supply if applicable
• Access the hook location on the door or cabinet/tub (varies by model); remove mounting screws/clips
• Transfer any reusable hardware; align the new hook so it mates cleanly with the latch/lock and tighten fasteners
• Close the door to verify smooth engagement before running a cycle

This hose clamp secures a washer hose to its fitting to maintain a tight, leak-resistant connection. Replace a weakened or damaged clamp to stop seepage at hose joints and keep the washer operating reliably.

• Holds the hose firmly on pump, tub, or drain fittings to help prevent leaks
• Maintains clamping pressure during operation and vibration
• Replace if rusted, bent, cracked, or no longer holding tension
• Typical symptoms: water dripping at hose connections or a hose that slips off

• Disconnect power and shut off water; drain any remaining water from the unit
• Release and slide back the old clamp, then remove the hose
• Fully seat the hose on the fitting and position the clamp just behind the hose bead/ridge
• Secure the clamp and run a brief test to check for leaks

This lifter assembly is the plastic baffle inside the drum that lifts and tumbles laundry as the drum turns. Replacing a cracked or missing lifter restores smooth tumbling and helps prevent fabric snags and noisy operation. What it does:

• Lifts and turns items to promote effective tumbling during cycles
• Helps distribute loads more evenly and reduce thumping
• Replaces broken, loose, or missing baffles
• Addresses symptoms like rattling, clothing snagging/tearing, or poor item movement in the drum

• 1 lifter assembly

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Work through the drum opening; remove the old lifter by releasing its locking mechanism
• Align the new lifter's tabs with the drum slots, then slide/lock it securely in place
• Verify it is firmly seated and does not wobble before running a test cycle

The Motor Stator Bolt is an OEM part for LG washing machines. This bolt secures the stator to the motor, ensuring the stability and proper functioning of the washing machine's motor assembly.

Causes of a bad motor stator bolt can include wear and tear over time, improper installation, or damage from over-tightening or impact. A compromised bolt can lead to instability in the motor, potentially affecting the washer's performance.

Symptoms of a bad motor stator bolt include:

• Unusual noises during the wash cycle
• Vibrations or shaking of the washer
• The motor not functioning properly or failing to start

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

This washer clutch assembly engages the drive system to shift between wash and spin modes. Replacing a worn clutch restores smooth agitation and full-speed spin performance, reducing noise and leaving clothes properly wrung out at cycle end.

• Engages and disengages the drive to transition between wash/agitate and spin
• Transfers motor torque to the basket during wash and spin
• Worn clutch can cause weak or no spin
• May result in no agitation or intermittent shifting
• Can cause grinding/scraping noises and leave clothes wet after the final spin

• Unplug the appliance and shut off water before starting
• Access from the bottom; support the washer securely to prevent tipping
• Remove obstructing drive components to reach the clutch; note hardware/wire routing for reassembly
• After installation, rotate the basket by hand and run a quick test cycle to confirm proper operation
