The Whirlpool screw is an OEM replacement part responsible for securing various components or parts on different types of Whirlpool appliances. The screw is designed to provide a secure and reliable fastening connection, ensuring that different parts of the appliance stay in place. It is commonly used in different locations within the appliance, such as the cabinet, panels, or other structural elements.

This part fixes the following symptoms:

• Loose or wobbly components within the appliance
• Panels or parts that are not securely attached
• Rattling or unusual noises due to loose parts
• Damaged or missing screw

The Whirlpool screw can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This replacement capacitor restores stable electrical timing and motor/run performance in compatible Whirlpool appliances. It helps the appliance start and run smoothly when the original capacitor has failed or weakened. What it does:

• Provides the stored charge needed for motor start/run circuits and control timing.
• Helps prevent motor hum, slow starts, or failure to start when the capacitor is failing.
• Reduces erratic cycling or intermittent operation caused by a weak capacitor.
• Supports reliable operation of blower, fan or small motor circuits that rely on a dedicated capacitor.

• Disconnect power to the appliance at the source before accessing electrical components.
• Capacitors can hold charge—discharge safely before touching terminals.
• Use insulated tools and avoid shorting terminals; verify correct fit and secure connections.

This sheet-metal pan-head screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and components to the cabinet or frame. Replacing a missing or damaged screw restores a tight fit and helps stop rattles, misalignment, and loosening.

• Fastens sheet-metal panels, covers, ducts, and brackets to the appliance chassis
• Helps keep components aligned and secure during operation
• Replace if the original is missing, rusted, stripped, or damaged
• Common symptoms: loose or vibrating panels, gaps or misaligned parts, hardware that won't tighten

• Disconnect power; shut off gas or water supply before servicing
• Support the panel or part being attached; hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading
• Use the correct driver bit; tighten snugly but do not overtighten into sheet metal
• If multiple matching screws secure a part, consider replacing them as a set for consistent hold

This 15 amp, 250 volt replacement fuse protects your appliance's electrical circuits by interrupting power when a fault or overload occurs. It restores safe operation once the underlying issue is fixed and the fuse is replaced. What it does:

• Acts as an overcurrent protection device for circuits rated up to 15 A and 250 V
• Prevents damage to wiring and components by opening the circuit during an overload or short
• Common symptom: appliance has no power or specific functions stop working after a sudden failure
• Replacing a blown fuse can resolve intermittent power loss or complete power failure tied to a single blown element

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the fuse
• Replace only with a fuse of the same amperage and voltage rating to maintain safety and proper protection
• Use insulated tools and avoid touching live terminals; internal access may require disassembly, follow OEM service instructions
• If fuses blow repeatedly, stop using the appliance.

This access cover protects and conceals internal appliance components, helping keep wiring and controls shielded from dirt and accidental contact. It restores the appliance's finished appearance after service. What it does

• Covers and protects internal electrical and mechanical parts from debris and accidental contact
• Helps maintain proper airflow pathways and component positioning where applicable
• Prevents loose items from entering service areas that could cause damage or noise
• Useful when replacing or servicing internal parts to restore the appliance's exterior finish

• One access cover as shown

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before installation to avoid shock
• Use appropriate hand tools (screwdriver or nut driver) and keep fasteners for reassembly
• Handle edges carefully — metal or plastic edges may be sharp
