Parts for Kenmore 208.60041 (20860041, 208 60041): Unit Parts

This 10-32 x 3/8 machine screw secures panels and components in many appliances where a small, threaded fastener is required. It replaces stripped, missing, or loose screws to restore stable assembly and reduce vibration. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, and small components using 10-32 unified threads
• Restores secure mounting when screws are missing, stripped, or loose
• Helps stop rattling, misalignment, and intermittent part contact caused by loose fasteners
• Works wherever a 10-32 x 3/8 machine screw is specified by the manufacturer

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Use the correct size screwdriver or nut driver to avoid stripping the head
• Tighten until snug; avoid over-tightening which can strip threads or crack plastic
• Replace with the same size and thread spec to ensure proper fit and function

This small internal lever fits the washer's transmission spin gear. It engages the gear so the basket can spin as designed. Replacing a worn pawl can restore consistent spin performance and help reduce ratcheting noises from the gearcase. What it does:

• Engages the transmission's spin gear to transmit power to the basket during the spin cycle
• Provides one-way locking to prevent the spin gear from slipping under load
• Common symptoms of failure: basket won't spin or spins intermittently; loud clicking/ratcheting from the gearcase; delayed or harsh engagement into spin

• One spin gear pawl

• Unplug the washer and turn off water supply; wear gloves and eye protection
• Located inside the gearcase; the gearcase must be removed and opened to access the pawl
• Expect residual oil inside the gearcase—use a catch pan and reseal per service procedures
• Photograph the gear stack and parts orientation during disassembly to aid reassembly
