Description

This small retaining clip secures a lever mechanism inside the appliance, keeping the linkage aligned so the control operates smoothly. Replacing a bent or missing clip helps restore proper engagement and prevents the mechanism from popping loose. What it does:

• Locks the lever mechanism to its bracket or shaft
• Maintains alignment of moving linkage for consistent operation
• Replaces missing, bent, or broken retainer
• Common symptoms: loose/wobbly lever, mechanism slips out, control doesn't engage reliably

What's included:

• Clip only

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the mechanism per your model's service information and relieve any spring/linkage tension
• Note the original orientation; use needle-nose pliers to seat the new clip fully in the groove
• Test the mechanism for smooth operation before reassembly
