The Stove Top Drip Pan is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool gas and electric ranges. It is located underneath the stove burners and grates to catch and contain grease drippings and spills. Over time, grease and cooking residue buildup can cause drip pans to crack, warp or corrode.

Symptoms of a bad stove top drip pan include:

• Grease spillovers outside of the drip pan area
• Flames or heating elements obstructed by built-up debris
• Warping or cracking of the pan surface
• Difficulty removing or cleaning the drip pan

Causes can be normal wear from heat and long-term grease exposure. Accidental damage during cleaning is also possible. 

 This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana and some Kenmore models. 

The Float Switch Base Gasket is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. This gasket is specifically designed to seal the area around the float switch base, preventing water leaks that can occur during the dishwasher's operation. 

Causes of damage to the Float Switch Base Gasket often involve normal wear and tear, as the rubber or plastic material can degrade over time due to exposure to detergents, hot water, and the mechanical action of the float switch. 

Symptoms of a bad Float Switch Base Gasket include:

• Water leaking from the bottom of the dishwasher
• Signs of water damage or corrosion around the float switch area
• The dishwasher may malfunction or display error codes related to water filling issues if water leaks interfere with the float switch operation.

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

The Drip Pan Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges. It is located below the oven cavity to catch any grease, food debris, or condensation. The drip pan keeps the lower interior clean and prevents messes from spreading. Includes 2 large pans and 2 small pans.

Over time, drip pans can become damaged or worn due to exposure to high temperatures, spilled food, and regular cleaning. Causes of a bad drip pan can include rust, discoloration, warping, or holes developing in the pan, which can compromise its ability to catch spills.

Symptoms of a bad drip pan include:

• Grease or residue building up around the oven's base   
• An unpleasant cooking odor lingering below  
• Drips or food particles escaping onto nearby surfaces
• Rust or holes forming in the metal pan over time

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

Note: If your originals were a two-piece pan and ring, the ring will no longer be used. They are one piece now.

• Leaks under or around the dishwasher
• Poor water pressure during cycles
• The dishwasher failing to fill or drain correctly
• Visible cracks or damage to the adapter

• Helps prevent the door from slamming or falling open too quickly
• Replaces a stretched, weakened, or broken spring
• Common signs: door feels heavy, drops quickly, or sits unevenly side-to-side

• Disconnect power before servicing; for dishwashers, also shut off the water supply
• Support the door and carefully relieve spring tension before removal
• Install the new spring in the same attachment points/orientation as the original
• Replace both together to maintain even tension

• Visual signs can include blisters, breaks, or hot spots on the coil
• Helps resolve issues caused by a failed element rather than the switch or receptacle

• Unplug range or switch off circuit breaker before servicing

• If failed, the detergent cup may not open or may open inconsistently
• Can leave detergent in the cup and lead to poor cleaning results
• Often suspected when the cycle runs but the soap door stays closed

• 1 bi-metal actuator assembly

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Remove the inner door panel to access the dispenser area
• Note wiring positions and orientation; transfer connectors securely to the new actuator
• The dispenser latch/linkage moves freely and test door release before reassembly
