The Torx Screw is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool brand appliances. The Torx Screw is responsible for providing secure and stable connections between different components of washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, and more. These screws are characterized by their star-shaped drive design, which offers better torque transfer and reduces the risk of stripping or cam-out. Sold individually. 7-18 x 3/4"

Causes of a bad Torx screw can include stripping of the screw head, rust or corrosion from prolonged exposure to moisture, or damage from over-tightening or cross-threading. A compromised screw can lead to loose or insecure parts, which can affect the performance and safety of the appliance.

Symptoms of a bad Torx screw include:

• The screw head being stripped and difficult to turn
• Rust or corrosion visible on the screw
• The screw not holding components securely
• Loose or rattling parts within the appliance

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

This range screw is an OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer for gas stove burners. These screws attach the ignitor to the burner. Screws may corrode and rust during everyday use. Spills and accidents on the range top may leak down to the screws and cause them to become worn. Screws are not considered part of the ignitor kit or burner kit and will need to be purchased separately. If the screws appear rusty or corroded while replacing the ignitor, it is beneficial to replace them. It is a good idea to purchase the screws at the same time as the parts are purchased so that they are available when needed. A Phillips head screwdriver is necessary to remove and replace the old screws. Make sure the power and gas are disconnected before installing the new screws.This screw is made of silver metal and is a Phillips head screw that is sold individually. Verify the number of screws needed before ordering. This screw is designed for use in gas ranges manufactured by Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Roper, Estate, Inglis, Maytag, Amana, Jenn-Air, and Crosley.

The Range Screw is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It is a small but essential component used to secure various parts and panels of the range. It is designed to fit securely into pre-drilled holes, holding components tightly in place.

There are a few factors that can lead to a bad Range Screw. Over time, screws may become loose or stripped due to frequent use or inadequate tightening. Accidental cross-threading or overtightening can also damage the screw or the surrounding components.

Symptoms of a bad screw may include loose or wobbly parts, rattling noises during operation, or difficulty in keeping components securely attached. This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Burner Control Knob is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges and cooktops. It is used to control the heat level of the burners, allowing for precise adjustments during cooking. This knob fits securely onto the burner valve stem, providing easy and reliable control over the gas or electric burners.

Over time, the burner control knob can become faulty. Causes of a bad burner control knob include regular wear and tear, exposure to high heat, or accidental impacts that cause the knob to crack or break. A damaged knob can make it difficult to adjust the burner settings accurately.

Symptoms of a bad burner control knob include:

• The knob not turning smoothly or feeling loose
• Difficulty in adjusting the burner flame or heat level
• The knob being cracked, broken, or missing
• The burner not responding to adjustments made with the knob

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

The Spark Electrode is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It is responsible for generating the spark that ignites the gas in the burners, allowing for efficient and reliable lighting of the stove. The spark electrode is located near the burner and produces a high-voltage spark to ignite the gas.

Causes of a bad spark electrode can include wear and tear over time, buildup of food debris or grease that can interfere with the spark, and damage from cleaning or handling. Electrical issues can also cause the electrode to fail.

Symptoms of a bad Spark Electrode include:

• The burner not igniting
• Weak or no spark
• Clicking sound without ignition
• The burner lighting inconsistently

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

The Burner Head is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It is responsible for distributing gas to create an even flame for cooking on the stovetop. This burner head ensures efficient gas flow and optimal flame control, which are essential for consistent cooking performance.

Causes of a bad burner head can include clogging from food debris or grease, corrosion due to prolonged exposure to heat and moisture, or physical damage from impact. Such issues can obstruct gas flow and result in uneven heating or poor flame quality.

Symptoms of a bad burner head include:

• Uneven flame or poor flame control
• Difficulty igniting the burner
• Low or inconsistent heat output
• Unusual noises such as hissing or popping during operation

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

This factory replacement screw secures panels, brackets, and covers in your appliance. Replacing missing or stripped hardware restores a solid fit, reduces vibration and rattles, and keeps components properly aligned during everyday use. What it does:
