• 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

Symptoms of a bad common bolt include:

• Loose or detached internal parts
• Excessive noise or vibration
• Leaks around seal areas

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

This door latch assembly secures the appliance door closed so cycles can start and run safely. A worn or damaged latch can prevent the door from locking, stopping the unit from operating or causing it to pause mid-cycle.

• Engages with the door strike to keep the door closed and locked during operation
• Faulty latches can lead to the door not locking, cycle not starting, or errors indicating an open door
• Also cause intermittent stopping if the latch doesn't stay engaged

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Handle wiring connectors carefully; note their positions for reassembly
• Align the latch with mounting points and tighten fasteners securely
• Test door closure and operation before returning to service

This wire harness routes power and signals between the washer's control and multiple components. Replace a damaged harness to restore dependable operation when wiring is cut, brittle, or connectors are heat-damaged or corroded.

• Distributes electrical power and communication between the control board and components such as the motor, pump, valves, door lock, and sensors
• Maintains safe, reliable connections when insulation and terminals are intact
• Typical failure signs: intermittent operation, no start, specific loads not working (pump/motor/valves), or error codes traced to wiring faults

The Nozzle Connector is an OEM part for LG washers. This connector piece attaches to the water supply lines and direct tub fill nozzle, directing water into the washer tub during fill cycles. It allows water to be distributed evenly around the tub perimeter during fills to optimize cleaning performance.

Causes of a bad connector can include cracks, leaks, or blockages from mineral buildup that disrupt water flow.

Symptoms of a bad connector include:

• Uneven or inadequate water levels in the tub during fills
• Slow or inefficient fills requiring multiple attempt
• Water leaks from the connector area
• Mineral buildup visibly clogging the connector

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

This base bracket mounts to the washer's lower frame to hold associated components securely in place. By keeping parts properly anchored, it helps maintain alignment and stability during operation to minimize vibration and noise.

• Attaches to the washer base and provides a mounting point for designated hardware
• Helps keep assemblies from shifting during agitation and spin
• Supports smooth, quieter operation by reducing vibration and rattling
• Common signs of failure include a bent or cracked bracket, loose/misaligned parts, or unusual noises from the base area

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing; move the appliance for safe access
• Carefully tip or lay the washer back on protective padding; use a helper for stability
• Note the bracket's orientation and reuse existing mounting hardware as applicable
• Tighten fasteners securely and verify nearby parts have proper clearance before test run

This inlet hose carries water into the washer's fill system during wash and rinse cycles. Replacing a cracked or leaking hose restores proper filling and helps prevent water around the appliance from seepage at the connections.

• Routes incoming water to the washer's fill path during the fill cycle
• Helps maintain a watertight connection between the supply and the machine
• Replace if you see cracks, bulges, kinks, or active leaks
• Helps resolve water on the floor during fill, intermittent fill errors, or slow/no fill due to restricted flow

• Unplug the washer and turn off the water supply valves before starting
• Place a towel or pan to catch residual water and relieve line pressure
• Note hose routing/orientation; install the new hose without kinks and hand-tighten fittings
• Restore water and power, then check all connections for leaks during a short fill test

This drum spider supports and centers the inner tub in front-load washers. It bolts to the drum and couples to the drive shaft to keep spins smooth and balanced, reducing noise and vibration as the original wears.

• Supports and centers the inner spin basket within the outer tub
• Transfers drive power through the shaft to spin the drum
• Maintains drum alignment to help prevent rubbing and noise
• When worn: loud banging/rumbling on spin, excessive vibration, metallic scraping, unbalance/spin errors, wetter-than-normal loads

• Disconnect power and water; move the washer to a stable work area
• Access requires removing panels, the door boot, and separating the tub to lift out the inner basket
• Clean mating surfaces; install and tighten bolts in a crisscross pattern to ensure even seating
• Inspect rear tub bearings and seal while open; reassemble and run a test spin to check for leaks and vibration

This spring-style hose clamp secures a washer's rubber hose to its fitting to maintain a tight, leak-resistant seal. Replacing a weakened clamp helps stop drips and keeps the hose firmly in place during operation.

• Provides constant spring tension to hold a rubber hose on its port
• Helps prevent leaks at the connection point
• Resists vibration so the hose doesn't back off the fitting
• Common signs include water at a hose joint, a loose/detached hose, or a rusted/broken clamp

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before servicing
• Place a towel or pan to catch residual water from hoses
• Use pliers to compress the ears, slide off the old clamp, position the new clamp behind the hose bead, and release evenly
• After reassembly, run a quick test cycle and check for leaks
