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:

• Fastens panels, trim, brackets, and internal components to the cabinet or chassis
• Helps maintain alignment and reduce vibration or rattling noises
• Replaces missing, rusted, or stripped screws discovered during service
• Matches the OEM spec for locations where this part is called out on your model's diagram

• Disconnect power (and gas or water, if applicable) before servicing
• Use the appropriate driver; start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten snugly—do not overtighten to prevent stripping metal or plastic
• Replace hardware one screw at a time to keep parts aligned

This wire cover is a protective sleeve that helps route and shield appliance wiring to reduce wear and prevent accidental contact. It restores a neater harness run and helps maintain safe electrical routing inside the appliance. What it does:

• Protects wires from abrasion and chafing against sharp edges or moving parts
• Helps prevent exposed conductors that can cause shorts, arcing, or burning smells
• Keeps wiring bundled and routed to reduce pinching and stress on connectors
• Reduces risk of intermittent electrical issues caused by damaged insulation

• Disconnect power before beginning any service to avoid shock or injury
• Inspect surrounding wiring and connectors for damage; replace any frayed or exposed wires
• Slide cover over the wiring harness or route harness through sleeve as needed; secure with existing clips or approved fasteners

This control transformer reduces incoming line voltage to the low voltage required by the appliance's control circuit or lighting. Replacing a failed transformer restores proper power to the controls so the unit operates as designed. What it does:

• Steps down household line power to low voltage for control boards, relays, or lighting circuits
• Provides electrical isolation to help protect sensitive control components
• A failed transformer may leave the control/display dead or make low-voltage features (like lights) inoperative; may also blow a fuse

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Use your model's wiring diagram; transfer wires one at a time to the matching terminals
• Mount securely in the original location; keep wires clear of sharp edges and heat sources
• If a fuse opened, inspect wiring and downstream loads for shorts before restoring power

This terminal block is the insulated connection point where the appliance's incoming power ties into the internal wiring. Replacing a heat-damaged or loose block restores a safe, reliable electrical path and helps prevent arcing and intermittent power loss.

• Connects the supply conductors to the unit's internal wiring
• Provides insulated posts to securely fasten and distribute power
• Helps maintain tight, low-resistance connections
• Common failure signs: melted/discolored plastic, burned or loose terminals, arcing, scorching, or intermittent/no power after confirming the cord and breaker

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance; verify no voltage before servicing
• Photograph or label wire positions to ensure correct reassembly
• Inspect and replace any heat-damaged wire ends or lugs; use appropriate terminals
• Tighten connections securely and ensure wires are fully seated and strain-relieved as originally installed

The Screw is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges. This screw is used to secure various components of the range, ensuring that parts such as panels, brackets, or burners remain firmly in place during operation.
