The Screw is an OEM component compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. This screw secures the rear panel onto the cabinet frame, ensuring a sturdy connection between housing components.  Proper installation is critical for the washer's structural integrity.

Causes of a bad screw include corrosion from repeated water exposure or stresses from years of use. Loosening can occur from vibrations weakening the threads over time. 

Symptoms of a bad screw include:

• Rear panel detaching from frame opening gaps
• Increased noise and vibrations from a compromised seal  
• Stress on other connections from improper mounting points
• Potential leak paths from openings near hoses or tub areas

This OEM Whirlpool replacement screw helps maintain a tight panel closure. It is compatible with additional brands like Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This is a Whirlpool washing machine basket. The washing machine basket holds laundry during a wash cycle. The basket may become damaged over time due to normal wear and tear, which can be exacerbated by overloading laundry or using the wrong amount of detergent. When the basket starts to become damaged or malfunction, noticeable noise increases may take place during use. Eventually, the damage will lead to the basket failing to spin. The old basket can be removed by first removing the top portion by pushing the fastening clips that hold it in place. After removing the top, reach down to remove the softener cup. Using a socket, unfasten the agitator at the bottom of the basket. After removing the agitator, the basket should easily lift out of the machine.This part is a genuine OEM product and is sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is intended for use in Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, and Crosley appliances.

The Washer Water Inlet Valve is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This valve controls the flow of water into the washer, opening and closing to allow the correct amount of hot and cold water into the machine during different stages of the wash cycle.

Causes of a bad water inlet valve can include wear and tear over time, sediment build-up, or damage from high water pressure. These issues can cause the valve to malfunction, leading to improper water levels or no water entering the machine at all.

Symptoms of a bad water inlet valve include:

• Washer not filling with water
• Slow fill or no water flow
• Water leaking from the valve area
• Inconsistent water temperature during cycles

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
