Parts for Maytag MGD3100DW0: 02 - Top And Console Parts

This top panel is the upper cover of your dryer's cabinet. Replace a dented, rusted, or warped panel to restore a secure, flush fit and the clean, finished look of your machine.

• Forms the dryer's upper cabinet surface and covers internal components
• Provides proper mounting/alignment for the control console and top hardware
• Helps maintain cabinet rigidity and a solid, secure fit
• Common signs it's needed: visible dents/bends or rust, top won't sit flush or stay secured, gaps or misalignment near the console

• Disconnect power; shut off gas supply for gas models
• Wear cut-resistant gloves—cabinet edges can be sharp
• Remove fasteners securing the top, lift off, and transfer any clips/insulation from the original panel
• Align the new panel and tighten fasteners evenly to ensure a flush, secure fit

This control knob attaches to the appliance's control shaft so you can select settings with a solid, positive feel. Replace a cracked, stripped, or missing knob to restore smooth operation and a clean, finished look.

• Attaches to a switch or valve shaft to select temperatures, burner levels, or cycles
• Transfers your hand turn to the control shaft for accurate setting changes
• Common symptoms: cracked hub, spins without engaging, wobbly/loose, falls off, or missing
• Helps maintain a uniform appearance across the control panel

• Disconnect power (and shut off gas, if applicable) before servicing
• Pull the old knob straight off the shaft; avoid prying against the control panel
• Align the insert with the shaft's flats or splines and press straight on until fully seated
• Match position- and finish-specific knobs to the original on models that use different knobs per location

The Wire Harness is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This wire harness is responsible for delivering power and electricity throughout the dryer and to its individual components. 

Causes of a bad wire harness can include fraying or exposed wires due to wear and tear over time, cracking or damage of protective casings that expose internal wirings, or malfunctioning connections that disrupt power flow.

Symptoms of a bad wire harness include:

• The dryer not starting or powering on
• Components like the drum or heating elements not working
• Buzzing or humming noises coming from inside the dryer
• Tripped or blown fuses
• Error codes or failure to progress through cycles properly

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

This screw is used to secure the handle end cap to the center of the door. The screw size measures 8-18 x 1/2 inches.
