Genuine OEM W10779716 Oven Bake Element
The Genuine OEM Whirlpool W10779716 is the bake element for select Whirlpool-built electric ranges, including Kenmore, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air and other brands. The bake element sits at the bottom of the oven and supplies the heat for baking. When it burns out or breaks, the oven may heat unevenly, heat very little, or not heat at all.
This is the original Whirlpool part, not an aftermarket equivalent. Similar-looking elements can differ in size and shape, so check your model number before ordering.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Disconnect Power And Let The Oven Cool Before Installing Unplug the range or switch off its circuit breaker, and make sure the oven is cool. Wear work gloves. Pull the range out far enough to reach the back panel if needed. Remove the oven racks and any bottom cover, disconnect the element's wire leads, and remove the mounting screws or bracket. Fit the new element, reconnect the leads securely, and refit the cover. Restore power and test the oven.
Frequently Asked Questions
My oven isn't heating when baking. Is this the part I need?
A burned-out bake element is a common cause. Look for visible breaks, blisters or burn marks on the element. Other parts, such as the control board or temperature sensor, can cause the same symptoms, so confirm the element is the problem before replacing it.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part from Whirlpool, not an aftermarket equivalent.
Is this the bake element or the broil element?
This is the bake element, located at the bottom of the oven. The broil element is a separate part at the top of the oven.
Will this fit my range?
It fits only some models of each brand, and the model list above is only a sample. Similar-looking elements can differ in size and shape, so check your full model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team and we'll verify it before you order.

WD14X10009 Genuine OEM GE Dishwasher Hinge Arm Link
The WD14X10009 is a Genuine OEM GE replacement dishwasher hinge arm link compatible with an exceptionally wide range of GE, GE Profile, Café, Monogram, Hotpoint, RCA, Haier, and Kenmore GE-built dishwashers — it fits over 2,100 models. The hinge arm link is the small plastic connector that joins the door spring to the door hinge arm at the bottom of the dishwasher door. This tiny part carries a big load: it's what allows the spring to counterbalance the weight of the door — especially when the door is open with a fully loaded lower rack resting on it. Without an intact link, the spring can't do its job, and the door drops open under its own weight instead of lowering in a smooth, controlled motion.
The hinge arm link is a small piece of white plastic approximately 1-1/2" long, weighing about 0.01 lbs. It fails from ordinary wear and tear — thousands of open/close cycles gradually stress the plastic until it cracks or snaps. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by GE to factory specifications, the WD14X10009 directly replaces AP2039321, 270839, AH259336, EA259336, and PS259336. Important: your dishwasher has a door spring and hinge arm link on BOTH the left and right sides. This part is sold individually — if one link has broken from age, the other is the same age and often not far behind, so many customers order two and replace both while the dishwasher is pulled out. Installs in 15–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The WD14X10009 Genuine OEM GE Dishwasher Hinge Arm Link fixes GE, GE Profile, Café, Monogram, Hotpoint, RCA, Haier, and Kenmore dishwashers where the door falls open instead of lowering gently, the door won't stay shut or won't latch, the door is hard to open or close, or the door slants when open. Small white plastic link ~1-1/2" long — connects the door spring to the door hinge arm. Genuine OEM. Sold individually. Replaces AP2039321, 270839, AH259336, EA259336, PS259336. Fits 2,100+ GE-platform dishwasher models. There's one link on EACH side of the door — consider ordering two.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dishwasher door falls open instead of lowering in a smooth, controlled motion — no counterbalance from the spring
Door drops down hard when opened — link broken, spring disconnected
Door won't stay shut, or opens unexpectedly
Door won't latch or lock properly
Door is difficult to open or close
Door slants or hangs unevenly when open
Hinge arm link visibly cracked, bent, broken, or significantly worn
Broken plastic link found lying on the floor beneath the dishwasher
Door spring disconnected and hanging loose

Important — There Are TWO Links, One Per Side: Your dishwasher door has a spring and hinge arm link on both the left and right sides. This part is sold individually. Many customers discover the second link only after reinstalling the dishwasher — and since both links are the same age and have seen the same wear, the surviving one often breaks soon after. Consider ordering two and replacing both while the dishwasher is already pulled out. Also inspect the door hinge cable at the same time; if it's frayed, kinked, or bent, replace it too.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dishwasher and Shut Off Water Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power at the breaker and shut off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Remove the screws holding the bottom kick plate (a nut driver works well here) and the anchor screws at the top of the dishwasher that secure it to the countertop. Carefully pull the dishwasher out 8–10 inches from the cabinet to expose the door springs and hinge arm links at the bottom on both sides. (Depending on how the dishwasher is plumbed, you may be able to do this without disconnecting the water supply, drain line, or electrical — pull only as far as the connections allow, and disconnect them only if necessary for access.) Look at the hinge assembly at the bottom of the door: you'll see a steel cable with a hooked end, a spring, and the small white plastic link that ties them together. If the link is broken, it may already be lying on the floor. Remove the old link by disconnecting it from the hinge and spring — if it's cracked but still in place, you can break the remaining pieces free. Install the new WD14X10009: place the hinge arm link into the spring, hook the spring onto the clip, and seat the link into the clip on the hinge arm. Note: on some models the crimped hook opening on the steel cable is tight — if the new link won't slide in easily, a small file can carefully open the hook opening enough to accept it. Check the other side of the door while you're in there — there's a second spring and link, and if it's aged or cracked, replace it now. Push the dishwasher back into place, reinstall the anchor screws and kick plate, restore power and water, and test the door: it should now lower smoothly under spring tension rather than falling open. Tools needed: Nut driver, Phillips screwdriver, small file (occasionally), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dishwasher door falls open instead of lowering gently — is this the part?
Almost certainly, yes. The door spring is what counterbalances the door's weight so it lowers in a controlled motion. The hinge arm link is the small plastic piece that connects that spring to the door hinge arm. When the link cracks or snaps, the spring is effectively disconnected — so the door has no counterbalance and drops open under its own weight. This is the classic symptom. To confirm, pull the dishwasher out a few inches and look at the bottom hinge area on each side: if a link is broken, you'll often find the pieces on the floor or the spring hanging loose. If both links are intact, check the door hinge cable for fraying or the spring for damage.
Should I order one or two?
Order two. Your dishwasher has a door spring and hinge arm link on both sides of the door — and this part is sold individually. Many customers order one, replace the broken link, push the dishwasher back into the cabinet, and only then realize the second link exists (and is the same age, with the same wear). Since the tedious part of the job is pulling the dishwasher out from under the counter, replacing both links while you're already in there is the smart move. At a few dollars each, having a spare on hand is cheap insurance against doing the whole job over in a few months.
Why do these little plastic links break?
Ordinary wear and tear. The hinge arm link is a small plastic component that carries a surprising amount of load — every time you open the door, it transmits the spring's counterbalancing force to the hinge arm, and that load increases dramatically when the lower rack is fully loaded and resting on the open door. Over thousands of open/close cycles across years of use, the plastic fatigues and eventually cracks or snaps. It's a consumable wear item on GE dishwashers, which is exactly why GE uses the same inexpensive part across 2,100+ models.
Do I have to disconnect the water and electrical to pull the dishwasher out?
Often not. Many customers find that removing the top anchor screws and the bottom kick plate, then sliding the dishwasher out 8–10 inches, gives enough access to reach the hinge arm links — without disconnecting the water supply, drain hose, or electrical. It depends on how much slack your installer left in those lines. Pull the dishwasher out only as far as the connections allow, and see whether you can reach the hinge area. If the lines are too short and you can't reach, you'll need to disconnect the water supply, drain tube, and electrical (turn off power and water first). Either way, the link replacement itself takes only a few minutes once you can reach it.
Should I replace the door hinge cable at the same time?
Inspect it, and replace it if it shows any damage. The door hinge cable is the steel cable that connects the door spring assembly to the door hinge — it works alongside the link and spring in the same counterbalance system. If the cable is frayed, kinked, bent, or its crimped hook end is damaged, it will fail soon and you'll be pulling the dishwasher out again. Since you already have access, this is the ideal moment to check it. Also inspect the door spring itself for stretching or breakage. Contact our support team with your model number if you need the correct cable or spring part number.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by GE to factory specifications. It is the exact same hinge arm link installed in compatible GE, GE Profile, Café, Monogram, Hotpoint, RCA, Haier, and Kenmore GE-built dishwashers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

154756401 Genuine Frigidaire Dishwasher Door Hinge Cable
The 154756401 is a Genuine OEM Frigidaire replacement dishwasher door hinge cable compatible with select Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Ikea dishwashers. The door hinge cable runs through a pulley system at the base of the dishwasher door and is responsible for balancing and controlling the weight of the door as it opens and closes. When a cable breaks or frays, the door drops down suddenly and heavily, opening with a loud bang — or may not hold itself up at all, straining the door hinges and latch with every use.
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications and directly replaces the older 154578801. It is sold as a single cable — most Frigidaire dishwashers have two door hinge cables (one on each side), and it is strongly recommended to replace both at the same time. Installs in under 30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The 154756401 Genuine Frigidaire Dishwasher Door Hinge Cable fixes dishwashers where the door drops open too fast, bangs loudly when opened, doesn't stay open at a comfortable angle, or where a broken cable is visible at the door hinges. Sold individually — replace both cables at the same time. Compatible with Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, and Ikea dishwashers. Replaces 154578801.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dishwasher door drops suddenly and forcefully when opened — "slams" down instead of lowering gently
Loud banging or crashing noise when opening the dishwasher door
Door does not stay open at a horizontal position — drops all the way down
Broken, frayed, or snapped door cable visible near the door hinge or base of the door
Door hinge is being damaged or strained due to missing cable tension

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dishwasher Before Starting Disconnect power before beginning any repair. Open the dishwasher door and remove the inner door panel by unscrewing the screws around the perimeter of the inner door. With the inner panel removed, locate the door hinge cable routing — the cable runs from a bracket near the bottom of the door, through a pulley, and connects to the door spring tension system at the base of the dishwasher. Note how the cable is routed before removing the old one. Remove the broken cable by detaching it from the anchor points at each end. Thread the new 154756401 cable through the same pulley path and re-attach it to the anchor points at both ends, ensuring proper tension. Reinstall the inner door panel. Close and open the door to verify it moves smoothly and holds itself open horizontally. Restore power and run a short cycle to confirm normal operation. Tip: Replace both cables at the same time — the second cable will likely fail soon after the first. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, Torx screwdriver (T20), needle-nose pliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the dishwasher door hinge cable do?
The door hinge cable is a tensioned metal cable that runs through a pulley and connects to the door spring system to balance the weight of the dishwasher door as it opens and closes. Without the cable, the full weight of the door would cause it to drop suddenly and forcefully when opened, slamming down onto the floor or straining the hinges with every use. The cable provides the controlled, counterbalanced movement that allows the door to lower gently and stay open at a horizontal position for easy loading and unloading.
How many door cables does my Frigidaire dishwasher have?
Most Frigidaire dishwashers use two door hinge cables — one on the left side and one on the right side of the door. This listing is for a single cable. When one cable breaks, the other is typically close behind since both cables have endured the same amount of use. It is strongly recommended to replace both cables at the same time while the door panel is already disassembled, saving you from repeating the repair shortly after.
What is the difference between 154756401 and 154578801?
These are the same door hinge cable. 154756401 is the current updated part number that superseded the older 154578801 during a production revision. If your dishwasher's parts diagram or old cable label shows 154578801, the 154756401 is the correct current replacement to order.
Is this compatible with Electrolux and Kenmore dishwashers?
Yes — Frigidaire and Electrolux are part of the same corporate family and share many components. The 154756401 cable is compatible with select Electrolux dishwashers and with Kenmore dishwashers built on the Frigidaire/Electrolux platform. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications. It is the exact same door hinge cable installed in compatible Frigidaire, Electrolux, and related brand dishwashers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
