Replacement dryer seal creates a tight barrier between components to prevent leaks and lint buildup. Replace when worn or brittle to stop drips. Verify fit.

This replacement door restores a secure close and proper sealing for your appliance. Replacing a damaged or misaligned door helps ensure safe operation and correct latch/switch engagement for reliable everyday use. What it does:

• Provides the closing barrier for the appliance cabinet to maintain proper containment (heat, air, steam, or moisture as designed)
• Aligns with hinges and latch/door switches for correct interlock and operation
• Helps prevent leaks and drafts and protects the interior from damage
• Can address issues such as difficulty closing, visible cracks/dents, poor sealing, or the unit not starting/stopping when the door is moved

• Includes 1 door

• Disconnect power before servicing; also shut off gas or water if applicable
• Support the door during removal/installation; a second person may be needed for larger/heavier doors
• Transfer any reusable hardware (hinge pins, screws, nameplate/trim) from the original as needed
• After installation, verify alignment, latch engagement, and seal/gasket contact; test operation

• Finish, handle style, and configuration are model-specific—ensure the correct match

Fiberglass-reinforced door seal that restores airtight closure to maintain consistent temps and reduce energy waste. Replace if torn or compressed.

This replacement cover restores the appliance's finished appearance and protects internal components from dust and debris. It's a direct-fit exterior trim piece designed to replace a cracked, broken, or missing cover. What it does:

• Protects internal components and wiring from debris and accidental contact
• Restores the appliance's cosmetic appearance and helps maintain sealing
• Helps reduce dust buildup in the covered area
• Replaces damaged or missing trim that can expose sharp edges or hardware

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off circuit breaker) before beginning work

This is a mechanical defrost timer that controls the automatic defrost cycle of the refrigerator. It periodically shuts off the compressor and energizes the defrost heater so frost can melt, helping maintain proper cooling performance.

• Cycles the unit between cooling and defrost at set intervals
• Stuck or failed timers can cause warm temperatures, heavy frost, or continuous running
• Can also cause short-cycling or no-cool if contacts fail

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access is typically from the control housing or rear service area; note wire positions before removal
• Replace one-for-one with the same terminal orientation; do not force the cam
• After install, allow one full cycle to verify defrost operation

This replacement key restores operation of a factory-installed lock on select appliances, letting you securely lock or unlock a door, lid, or compartment when the original key is lost or damaged. What it does:

• Operates the keyed lock cylinder to lock and unlock the appliance compartment
• Restores access when the original key is missing, bent, or broken
• Helps keep contents secure by re-enabling the lock function

• Insert fully and turn gently—do not force the cylinder
• If the lock is stiff, clean the keyway; use only manufacturer-approved lubricants if needed
• Disconnect power before any related service; keep the key out of children's reach

This time-delay fuse protects the appliance's power circuit by opening when current exceeds a safe level while tolerating brief inrush current. Replacing a blown fuse can help restore power once the root cause is corrected. What it does:

• Protects the line and control circuits from shorts and overloads
• Time-delay design helps prevent nuisance opening during startup surges
• When open, the unit will be completely dead—no display, lights, or response
• Repeatedly opening usually indicates an unresolved electrical fault that needs diagnosis

• 1 time-delay fuse

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; some appliances can retain dangerous high voltage
• Replace only with the same type and rating specified by the manufacturer
• Inspect the fuse holder and wiring for heat damage or loose connections before reassembly
• If the new fuse opens immediately, stop and diagnose the underlying cause; never bypass or upsize a fuse

Routes airflow inside your dryer to maintain circulation and temperature. Replace if cracked, warped, rusted, or blocked to restore proper air path.

This protective cover shields and guides the appliance's water line at the back, helping prevent kinks, abrasion, and vibration. Replacing a damaged or missing cover helps protect the tubing and supports consistent water flow. What it does:

• Protects and routes the water supply tubing to reduce rubbing and wear
• Helps prevent kinks or pinches that can restrict water flow
• Keeps the line secured to minimize vibration and rattling
• Common signs include a cracked/missing cover, exposed/kinked tubing, leaks, or reduced water flow

• 1 water hose cover

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Pull the appliance forward for access; remove any screws/clips securing the old cover
• Note the tube routing; install the new cover without pinching the line
• Restore water and power, then check for proper flow and any leaks
