XPARTCO W11688995 Washer Water Inlet Valve (Cold)
The XPARTCO W11688995 is an aftermarket replacement cold water inlet valve designed as a direct fit for select Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, Inglis, and Kenmore front-load washers. The cold water inlet valve is mounted at the back of the washer where the cold water supply hose connects. When the washer's control board calls for cold water during a wash cycle, the valve's internal solenoid opens, letting water flow into the tub or detergent dispenser. The valve closes the instant the control board cuts power, stopping flow precisely as the correct fill level is reached.
When this valve fails, the washer may not fill with cold water at all, fill very slowly, fail to dispense fabric softener, continuously drip water into the tub even when off, or display F8E1 or LO FL error codes. Construction is blue and white plastic with metal solenoid coil, ~3"H x 4"W x 3"L, with 1/2" NPT threaded inlet for standard washer supply hose. It directly replaces W11688995, W11036930, W11316256, W11486361, AP7218603, EAP12711564, PD00086086, PS12711564, 4929298, and AP6835737. Often replaced as a pair with the hot water inlet valve (W11688994, sold separately). Installs in 10–15 minutes with basic hand tools.

Note: This is the cold water inlet valve (typically blue). The matching hot water inlet valve is part number W11688994 (typically red). When you replace one valve, it's a good practice to replace the other at the same time since they're the same age, both are accessible during the same repair, and the second valve will likely fail in the near term. Always verify your model number before ordering.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Supply Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power and shut off both the hot and cold water supplies at the wall before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Have towels ready — residual water remains in the supply hoses and will spill when disconnected. Pull the washer out from the wall to access the back. Remove the three 1/4" screws securing the rear edge of the top cover, push the top cover slightly back, and lift it off. Locate the inlet valves at the back of the washer — the cold valve is typically blue. Disconnect the cold water supply hose from the valve (water will drip — towels). Photograph the wire connections before disconnecting. Unplug the small electrical connector from the valve solenoid. Remove the single 3/16" mounting screw (or similar hardware, model-dependent) holding the valve in place, and disconnect any internal water hoses from the valve outlet (channel-lock pliers may help with hose clamps). Install the new W11688995 valve in the same position with the same orientation, reconnect the internal water hoses and electrical connector, and secure the mounting screw. Reconnect the cold supply hose at the wall, restore water and power, and run a test cycle to confirm normal cold water fill with no leaks. Tip: while the top cover is off, this is the ideal time to also replace the hot water valve (W11688994) — they share the same access and lifespan. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, 3/16" nut driver, adjustable wrench or pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do error codes F8E1 and LO FL mean on Whirlpool washers?
Both codes indicate a water fill problem. F8E1 appears when the control board doesn't detect normal water flow during a fill cycle — typically caused by a failed inlet valve, a clogged inlet screen, kinked supply hose, or restricted water supply. LO FL (low flow) appears when the washer detects that water is flowing in, but at a rate too low to complete the fill within the expected time window. When the cold water inlet valve has failed or is partially clogged, both codes can appear together. Before replacing the valve, check that the household cold water supply is on and the supply hose isn't kinked, and inspect the inlet screen on the valve for sediment buildup. If those check out, replacing the W11688995 typically resolves the codes.
My washer isn't dispensing fabric softener — could this be the cold valve?
Yes — this is actually a common symptom that's often misdiagnosed. The cold water inlet valve also feeds the detergent dispenser tray on most Whirlpool front-load washers, including the fabric softener compartment. If the cold valve is clogged or failing to fully open at the right moment in the cycle, water doesn't flow through the fabric softener compartment to flush it into the tub, leaving softener pooled in the tray at the end of the cycle. If you've already cleaned the dispenser tray and water lines and the problem persists, replacing the cold inlet valve (W11688995) often resolves the issue.
Should I replace the hot water valve at the same time?
Yes, it's strongly recommended. The cold and hot inlet valves are essentially identical components installed side by side at the back of the washer — they're the same age, are exposed to the same wash cycle stress, and have the same expected service life. When one fails, the other is typically not far behind. Since the top cover is already off and both valves are accessible during the same repair, replacing both saves you a second teardown later. The matching hot water valve is part number W11688994 (red, sold separately) and is also available as a paired kit.
My washer is dripping water into the tub even when it's off — is this the valve?
Yes, that's a classic sign of a failed inlet valve. When the solenoid wears out or debris keeps the valve from sealing fully closed, water leaks past it at low rates and drips into the tub even with the washer powered off — especially noticeable as a slow puddle forming over a day or two. Since both the hot and cold valves feed into the tub, you'll want to identify which one is leaking: shut off the hot water supply at the wall and check if dripping continues. If it stops, the hot valve is at fault; if it continues, this cold valve is the cause. Replacing the W11688995 will resolve a leaking cold valve.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the dimensions, electrical specifications, 1/2" NPT thread, and solenoid function of the original W11688995 cold water inlet valve used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, and Kenmore front-load washers.

279570 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Door Catch Kit
The 279570 is a Genuine OEM Whirlpool dryer door catch and strike kit compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Kenmore, Roper, Estate, Amana, Crosley, Inglis, KitchenAid, Maytag, and Admiral dryers. The door catch is the spring-clip mechanism on the dryer door that snaps over the door strike to hold the door firmly closed during operation, activating the door switch so the dryer can run. When the catch breaks, wears out, or loses tension, the door will not stay closed, the door switch will not be activated, and the dryer will either not start or will stop mid-cycle. The strike is the corresponding post or tab on the dryer cabinet that the catch engages.
This Genuine OEM kit includes three color-coded door catches of different tensions and two metal door strikes, plus one screw. Because the tension of the catch must match the original, Whirlpool includes three options in the kit — each is color-coded and numbered on the back. Refer to identify which catch is correct for your model. The kit directly replaces a very large list of older cross-reference numbers including 279570VP, 3493, 2003, 8208, 279280, 279337, 696144, 693717, AP3094183, PS334230, and dozens more. Installs in under 15 minutes with a Phillips screwdriver.
Quick Answer

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power before beginning. using the wrong tension catch will result in incorrect door resistance. Open the dryer door and locate the old door catch on the inside of the door panel and the strike on the dryer cabinet opening. To remove the old catch: press the retaining tabs and pull the catch free from its slot, or unscrew the mounting screw. Install the correct new catch into the same position. To replace the strike: remove the old strike (typically held by a single screw) and install the new strike in the same position. Close the dryer door to confirm it latches firmly with a satisfying click. Restore power and run a short test cycle to confirm the door stays closed and the dryer operates normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver; needle-nose pliers may help with catch removal on some models.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the kit include three different catches?
Whirlpool used door catches with different spring tensions across its dryer lineup — a lighter catch on some models and a stiffer catch on others. To cover all compatible models in a single kit, Whirlpool includes three catches of different tensions, each color-coded and numbered on the back. It is important to use the correct one — using a catch with too little tension may allow the door to pop open, while a catch with too much tension may make the door difficult to open.
Do I need to replace both the catch and the strike, or just one?
It depends on which component has failed. The catch (the spring-clip on the door) is the more commonly replaced part — it wears out from repeated use faster than the strike. Inspect both: if the catch is cracked or has lost its spring tension, replace the catch. If the strike is bent, cracked, or missing, replace the strike. Since the kit includes both catches and strikes, you have everything needed for a complete repair. When in doubt, replacing both ensures the full latch system is renewed.
My dryer will not start even after replacing the door catch — what else could it be?
If the dryer still will not start after the catch is replaced, the door switch may also need to be tested. The door switch is the electrical component that the door catch activates when the door closes — if the switch itself is failed, replacing the catch alone will not restore function. Test the door switch (3406107 for most Whirlpool-family models) with a multimeter for continuity in both the open and closed positions. If the switch reads open in both positions or closed in both positions, it has failed and needs replacement.
How is the 279570 different from the W11429587 dryer door catch?
The 279570 is the door catch kit for older Whirlpool-family dryers — it includes multiple catches of different tensions and metal strikes because it covers a wide range of older models. The W11429587 is a single snap-in door catch for newer Whirlpool-family dryers (Cabrio and newer platform models). If your dryer is a newer model with a snap-in catch slot rather than a screw-mounted catch and strike, you likely need the W11429587. Verify your model number to confirm which part is correct.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM kit manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications. It is the exact same door catch and strike kit supplied by Whirlpool for compatible dryer service repairs — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

W11688995 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve (Cold)
The W11688995 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM cold water inlet valve for Whirlpool-built front-load washers. Whirlpool's newer front-load platforms use two separate single-function valves instead of one combined hot/cold valve body — this cold-side valve handles only the cold water supply, while a matching hot-side valve (sold separately as W11688994) handles the hot side. When the control calls for a cold fill, it energizes this valve's solenoid coils to open the water path; when the correct level is reached, the valve closes again. If this valve fails to open, the washer won't take on cold water; if it fails to seal fully closed, water can trickle into the drum even when the washer isn't running.
Because this is a dedicated single-function valve, a failure here shows up in a very specific way: cold-only fills stop working or slow down dramatically, while hot-only fills (governed by the separate W11688994 valve) continue working normally. Whirlpool's own service guidance links this valve to F8 E1 and LO FL fill-related error codes. Common failure modes include mineral or sediment buildup that prevents the valve from sealing, a burned-out solenoid coil, or a worn internal diaphragm. It directly replaces W11036930, W11316256, W11486361, AP7218603, PS17216730, and EAP17216730. As a genuine OEM part, the W11688995 is manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
Quick Answer
The W11688995 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve (Cold) fixes Whirlpool-built front-load washers where cold water won't fill, fills slowly, overfills, leaks into the drum when off, or throws an F8 E1 or LO FL error code. 120V, 50/60Hz, two-coil cold-only valve, 1/2" NPT threaded connections. Replaces W11036930, W11316256, W11486361, AP7218603, PS17216730, EAP17216730. This is the cold-side valve only — the companion hot-side valve is sold separately as W11688994.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer won't fill with cold water while hot water fills normally
Cold water fills much more slowly than it used to
Washer overfills or takes on more water than the cycle calls for
Water trickling or leaking into the drum on the cold side when the washer is off
F8 E1 or LO FL error code displayed on the control panel
Cycle stalling at the fill step and never advancing to wash
Cold-wash or cold-rinse cycles specifically affected while warm/hot cycles run fine
Water pooling underneath or behind the washer near the cold supply connection

Note — cold side only: This is the cold water valve. The matching hot water valve for these same washers is sold separately under part number W11688994. The two are not interchangeable — each is a dedicated single-function valve, and installing this cold valve in place of the hot valve (or vice versa) will not correctly control water temperature. If both valves need replacement, order both part numbers. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Shut Off Water Supply And Unplug Washer Before Starting — Have A Towel Ready Unplug the washer or shut off its circuit breaker, and shut off both the hot and cold water supply valves before beginning. Wear work gloves. Disconnect the cold water supply line from the back of the valve first — have a towel or shallow pan ready, since residual water will spill out. Remove the rear screws securing the top panel, then slide the panel back and lift it off to access the valve assembly from inside the cabinet. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything, since the hot and cold valves sit side by side and it's easy to cross a wire. Disconnect the electrical connector from the old cold valve, remove its mounting screw or bracket, and pull the valve free — leave the hot valve (W11688994) undisturbed if it isn't also being replaced. Install the new W11688995 in the same position, secure the mounting screw, and reconnect the electrical connector fully. Reattach the cold water supply line, tightening securely by hand plus a partial turn with pliers — avoid overtightening plastic threaded fittings. Reinstall the top panel, restore the water supply, and check the connection for leaks before restoring power. Run a short cycle set to a cold wash and confirm the tub fills at the normal rate with no leaking underneath or behind the washer. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver or socket, T-20 Torx bit, pliers, towel or shallow pan, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Cold water won't fill but hot water works fine. Is this the right part?
Yes — that's exactly the symptom pattern this valve addresses. Because your washer uses two separate single-function valves rather than one combined valve, a fault on the cold side only affects cold fills while the hot valve (W11688994) keeps working independently. If cold-specific cycles are the ones failing, this cold valve is the correct part to replace.
Do I need to replace both the hot and cold valves at the same time?
Not necessarily. Since these are independent single-function valves, you only need to replace the one that has actually failed. If only cold fills are affected, replacing this W11688995 valve alone is sufficient. If both hot and cold fills are having problems, or if the valves are original and quite old, some people choose to replace both at once since they're already accessing the same area — but it's not required.
My washer shows an F8 E1 or LO FL error. Does that mean this valve is bad?
It's a strong indicator, but check the basics first. These codes generally mean the control didn't see water reach the expected level within its allotted fill time. Before replacing the valve, confirm the cold supply valve at the wall is fully open, check the inlet screen inside the valve port for sediment or debris, and make sure the cold fill hose isn't kinked. If those check out and cold water still won't fill properly, this valve is the likely cause.
Can I use this valve on the hot water side instead?
No. This is a dedicated cold-water valve, and the hot-water side uses a separate part number, W11688994. The two are built and calibrated for their specific supply line and are not interchangeable — installing the cold valve on the hot side (or vice versa) will not properly control water temperature during the cycle.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same two-coil solenoid design, seal, and flow-rate calibration as the cold water inlet valve originally installed in your front-load washer.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove the two screws securing the top panel of the washer, then carefully lift off the panel and set it aside. Disconnect the hoses connected to the drain pump by squeezing the clamps and pulling them off, then disconnect the wires from the terminals. Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, unscrew the four screws around the old pump and carefully lift it out. Take the new WP3363394 and place it into the same position as the old one, securing it with the screws. Attach the hoses back onto their ports and plug the wires back into the terminals. Reinstall the top panel and secure its screws. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the washer drains completely with no leaks. Tools needed: multi-screwdriver, standard pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer isn't draining. Is this the right pump?
Yes, this is the most direct symptom of a failed drain pump. If the pump has locked up internally or become clogged by a small object, water won't be removed from the tub during the drain phase, leaving standing water behind after the cycle finishes.
How do I know if my washer is direct-drive or belt-drive?
This pump is specifically designed for direct-drive washers, which don't use a belt to connect the motor to the transmission. If you're not sure which type your washer uses, check your model number against the compatibility list, or contact our support team for confirmation before ordering, since belt-drive washers require a different pump design.
Should I replace the mounting clips at the same time?
It's worth considering, especially if your original clips show wear or damage. The companion clip, WP8546127, is commonly recommended alongside this pump since it secures the pump to the motor, and replacing a worn clip at the same time can help ensure a secure fit for the new pump.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original pump design, port configuration, and motor mounting of the drain pump originally installed in your washer.

Genuine OEM WP3387134 Dryer Cycling Thermostat
The Genuine OEM Whirlpool WP3387134 is a dryer cycling thermostat, the operating thermostat that controls drying temperature. It switches the heating element off when the dryer reaches its set temperature and back on after it cools, keeping the inside of the dryer at a steady temperature throughout the cycle. This one is rated L155-25: it cuts out at approximately 155°F and cycles back on once the temperature drops about 25°F.
When a cycling thermostat fails, the dryer may stop heating, run too hot, or keep heating after the drum has stopped. This is the original Whirlpool part, and it fits a wide range of Whirlpool-built dryers sold under the Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Roper, Crosley, Estate, Amana, and other brand names.
Quick Answer
The Genuine OEM WP3387134 Cycling Thermostat fixes a Whirlpool-built dryer that isn't heating, runs too hot, or has inconsistent drying temperatures. Rated L155-25, it cycles the heating element off at about 155°F and back on after a 25°F drop. Classic symptom: clothes come out damp or the dryer runs excessively hot, with no sign of a clogged vent.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the dryer or switch off its circuit breaker before beginning, and shut off the gas supply first on gas models. Wear work gloves, as the cabinet edges are sharp. Remove the panel that gives access to the heater housing per your model's service guide, note the wire terminal positions, and disconnect them from the old thermostat. Remove the thermostat, install the new one in the same position, and reconnect the wires. A screwdriver and needle-nose pliers are typically all you need. Before closing the dryer, clean the lint trap and check the exhaust vent for restrictions, since poor airflow is a common cause of overheating.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer isn't heating or runs too hot. Is this the part I need?
A failed cycling thermostat can cause either symptom. It may stay open and prevent heat, or stay closed and let the dryer overheat. Check for a clogged vent and test the thermostat for continuity before replacing it.
What's the difference between the cycling thermostat and the high limit thermostat?
The cycling thermostat controls normal drying temperature by switching the heating element on and off. The high limit thermostat and thermal fuse are separate safety devices that cut power if the dryer overheats. This listing is for the cycling thermostat only.
How do I test this thermostat?
With the dryer unplugged and the wires removed, check for continuity across the terminals with a multimeter at room temperature. A properly working cycling thermostat should show continuity when cool. No continuity means it has failed.
Will this fit my dryer?
It fits many Whirlpool-built dryers, but the model list above is only a sample. Check your model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team and we'll verify it before you order.

W11210459 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve
The W11210459 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM water inlet valve for Whirlpool top-load washers, and also fits select Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Crosley, Inglis, and Roper models. This valve controls the flow of hot and cold water into the tub during the fill portion of each cycle — an electrical solenoid opens and closes the valve to admit exactly the right amount of water for the selected wash setting.
Over time, mineral or sediment buildup inside the valve, or general wear in the solenoid coil, can cause the valve to fail. A failing valve typically shows up as the washer not filling with water, filling very slowly, or water continuing to leak into the tub after the wash has completed. It directly replaces AP6329217, W10701459, W10838319, W11038711, 4591321, PS12349267, W10869799, W11025984, and W11210459VP.
Quick Answer
The W11210459 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve fixes Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Crosley, Inglis, and Roper top-load washers that won't fill, fill very slowly, or continue leaking water into the tub after the wash has finished. Replaces AP6329217, W10701459, W10838319, W11038711, 4591321, PS12349267, W10869799, W11025984, W11210459VP. The control panel can be removed more easily with a putty knife slid under each end to release the clips, rather than removing the back panel first.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer And Shut Off Water Supply Before Starting — Use A Putty Knife To Release The Control Panel Disconnect power at the outlet, or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance, and shut off both hot and cold water supplies before beginning. Wear work gloves. The top control panel can be removed more easily by sliding a putty knife under the panel on each end to release the retaining clips, rather than removing the back panel first — one customer specifically noted this trick saved considerable time after trying the back-panel approach without success. With the panel released, locate the water inlet valve and photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the electrical connector and the hot/cold water lines from the old valve, remove its mounting screws, and pull it free. Install the new W11210459 in the same position, reconnect the water lines and electrical connector fully, and secure the mounting screws. Reinstall the control panel. Restore the water supply and power, then run a full test cycle across a few temperature settings to confirm correct fill behavior with no leaking. Tools needed: multi-screwdriver, putty knife, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer isn't filling with water. Is this the right part?
Yes, this is the most direct symptom of a failed water inlet valve. Since this valve is what admits water from your household supply into the washer, a solenoid failure or internal blockage can prevent any water from entering at all, stopping the wash cycle from proceeding.
What's the easiest way to access the control panel for this repair?
Try sliding a putty knife under the panel at each end to release the retaining clips, rather than removing the back panel of the washer first. One customer specifically learned this trick after trying the back-panel approach with no luck, then found the putty knife method worked cleanly after watching an online tutorial.
Is this the same as W11210463?
No, these are two separate Whirlpool valve part numbers with different cross-reference sets, despite the similar numbering. Always confirm the exact part number from your washer's parts diagram or the sticker on your old valve rather than assuming based on a close number match.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original solenoid design, flow rate, and connection type of the water inlet valve originally installed in your washer.

XPARTCO DC97-16350U Washer Suspension Rod Kit (Set of 4)
The XPARTCO DC97-16350U is an aftermarket replacement washer suspension rod kit (set of 4) compatible with a wide range of Samsung top-load washers in the WA40, WA41, WA42, WA44, WA45, WA49, and WA50 series. The suspension rods are spring-loaded shock-absorbing rods that connect the outer washer tub to the top corners of the cabinet frame, suspending the tub and dampening the vibrations generated during agitation and high-speed spin cycles. When one or more rods lose tension, break, or degrade, the tub swings off-center and strikes the cabinet walls — causing violent shaking, loud banging, error code dc (out of balance), UE imbalance errors, and progressive damage to the machine.
Each rod measures 26.4–26.5 inches in overall length and 1-1/4 inches in diameter, constructed from spring steel with plastic end caps. The kit includes all 4 suspension rods — always replace all four at the same time since they wear at the same rate. It directly replaces DC97-16350S, DC97-16350T, DC97-16350E, DC97-16350C, DC97-16350D, DC97-16350K, DC97-05280W, 4962798, AP6884450, EAP12720841, PS12720841, and PD00065434. Wear gloves during installation — the rods are coated with grease. Installs in 20–30 minutes — no special tools required.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO DC97-16350U Washer Suspension Rod Kit fixes Samsung top-load washers that vibrate violently, bang loudly, walk across the floor, or display dc or UE imbalance error codes during spin. Set of 4 rods, 26.4–26.5" long, 1-1/4" diameter, spring steel with plastic end caps. Replace all 4 at the same time. Wear gloves — rods are greased. Compatible with Samsung WA40–WA50 series. Replaces DC97-16350S, DC97-16350T, DC97-16350E, DC97-16350C, DC97-16350D, AP6884450, PS12720841.
Common Problems This Kit Fixes
Washer vibrating violently or shaking excessively during the spin cycle
Loud banging or thumping — tub striking the cabinet walls during spin
Washer "walking" or moving across the floor during high-speed spin
Error code dc displayed — Samsung out-of-balance error during spin
Error code UE displayed — unbalanced load error the washer cannot self-correct
Washer repeatedly stopping and rebalancing the load without completing the spin cycle
Visible broken, detached, or sagging suspension rod inside the washer cabinet
Rattling or clunking during agitation — tub no longer centered

Kenmore / Sears top-load washers (select Samsung-built models)
Important: The DC97-16350U rod is 26.4–26.5 inches long and is for Samsung WA40–WA50 series washers. Larger-capacity WA48–WA54 series models use the longer DC97-16350V rod (27.5 inches). Always measure your existing rods or verify your model number before ordering — using the wrong length rod can cause the tub to sit at the incorrect height inside the cabinet.
Key Features
Set of 4 suspension rods — complete replacement covering all four tub mounting points
Suspends and centers the outer tub within the cabinet — dampens agitation and spin vibration to prevent tub-to-cabinet contact
Resolves Samsung error codes dc (out of balance) and UE (unbalanced load)
Rod length: 26.4–26.5 inches overall; diameter: 1-1/4 inches
Spring steel construction with plastic end caps — durable and corrosion resistant
Rods are pre-coated with grease — wear work gloves during installation
Replace all 4 rods at the same time — rods wear together and partial replacement results in uneven tub support
No special tools required — installs in 20–30 minutes

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting — Wear Gloves Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves throughout — the suspension rods are coated with grease. Remove the lid and the top panel (typically secured by screws under the lid hinge covers and at the rear corners). With the top panel removed, the four suspension rods are visible at the corners, each running from a mounting point on the tub rim up to a hook or bracket at the top corners of the cabinet frame. Note the orientation and attachment method of each rod before removing. Unhook the top of each rod from the cabinet bracket and lift the bottom cup off the tub mounting pin. Install each new DC97-16350U rod by seating the bottom cup onto the tub mounting pin and hooking the top over the cabinet bracket. Replace all four rods before reassembling. Reinstall the top panel and lid, restore power and water, and run a spin cycle to verify smooth, quiet, centered operation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver; no special tools required for the rods themselves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between DC97-16350U and DC97-16350V?
Both are Samsung top-load washer suspension rods, but they are different lengths for different washer capacity generations. The DC97-16350U is approximately 26.4–26.5 inches long and is used on mid-capacity Samsung WA40 through WA50 series washers. The DC97-16350V is approximately 27.5 inches long and is used on larger-capacity WA48 through WA54 series washers. Using the wrong length rod causes the tub to sit at the wrong height inside the cabinet, which can cause new imbalance issues. Always measure your existing rods or verify your model number before ordering.
Why must I replace all 4 rods instead of just the broken one?
All four suspension rods experience the same amount of wear over the same number of wash cycles. When one rod fails, the remaining three have experienced the same stress and fatigue and are likely to fail soon after. Replacing only the broken rod leaves three worn rods supporting the tub unevenly — this can cause continued vibration, accelerate wear on the new rod, and require a second repair shortly after. Replacing all four at the same time ensures even tub support, fully resolves the imbalance, and prevents a repeat repair.
Do DC97-16350S, DC97-16350T, and DC97-16350E all cross to the DC97-16350U?
Yes — DC97-16350S, DC97-16350T, DC97-16350E, DC97-16350C, and DC97-16350D are all cross-reference part numbers for the same Samsung suspension rod assembly used across different production runs of the same washer series. Samsung updates part number suffixes during production revisions. All of these numbers have the same 26.4–26.5" length and are interchangeable with the DC97-16350U.
What do error codes dc and UE mean on Samsung washers?
Error code dc on Samsung top-load washers indicates the machine has detected an out-of-balance condition and stopped spinning to prevent damage. Error code UE indicates an unbalanced load that the washer cannot self-correct by redistributing. Both codes can be caused by an overloaded or unevenly distributed laundry load — but if the errors occur consistently even with normal, balanced loads, worn or broken suspension rods are the most common mechanical cause. Replacing the rod kit resolves these errors in most cases.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement kit built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured from spring steel with plastic end caps to match the length and spring tension of the original DC97-16350U suspension rods.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug The Washer And Drain Remaining Water Unplug the washer and shut off the water supply before you start. Water can remain in the pump and hoses, so have towels and a shallow pan ready. Take a photo of the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything, then transfer them to the new pump in the same positions and secure the clamps. If the washer still won't drain, check the drain hose and filter for a clog, and the wiring and control board.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer won't drain. Is the pump the fix?
Often, but not always. A clogged drain hose or filter, a kinked hose, or a wiring or control problem can cause the same symptom, so check those before replacing the pump.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part from Whirlpool, not an aftermarket equivalent.
What comes in the assembly?
It is a drain pump assembly and may include more than one part. Check the parts diagram for your model, or contact our support team and we'll confirm before you order.
Will this fit my washer?

XPARTCO 12138200000320 Dryer Door Catch
The XPARTCO 12138200000320 is an aftermarket replacement dryer door catch compatible with select Midea and Insignia dryers. The door catch is a small plastic spring-clip mechanism mounted on the dryer door that snaps over the door strike o12138200000320 n the cabinet opening to hold the door firmly closed during operation. When the door is closed and latched, the door switch is activated — signaling the control board that it is safe to run. When the catch breaks, cracks, or loses its spring tension, the door will not stay closed, the door switch will not activate properly, and the dryer will either not start or will stop mid-cycle.
This is a snap-in replacement catch — the color or exact finish may vary by production run. It directly replaces AP7152622 and PS18161385. Sold individually. Installs in under 5 minutes — no tools required in most cases.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 12138200000320 Dryer Door Catch fixes Midea and Insignia dryers where the door won't stay closed, pops open during a cycle, or where the dryer won't start because the door switch isn't being activated. Snap-in installation — no tools required, installs in under 5 minutes. Sold individually. Replaces AP7152622, PS18161385.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer door will not stay closed during the drying cycle
Door pops open mid-cycle, stopping the dryer
Dryer will not start — door switch not being activated by a worn or broken catch
Door feels loose or does not click shut firmly when closed
Door catch visibly cracked, broken, or missing
Dryer requires the door to be held or pushed to stay running
Replaces Part Numbers
This door catch directly replaces the following part numbers:

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power before beginning. Open the dryer door and locate the old door catch — it is a small plastic clip mounted on the inside of the door or on the cabinet opening around the door. Press the tabs on the old catch to release it from its mounting slot and pull it free. Note the orientation before removing. Insert the new 12138200000320 catch into the slot in the same orientation and press firmly until it snaps into place. Close the door to confirm it latches securely. Restore power and run a short cycle to verify the door stays closed and the dryer operates normally. Tools needed: None in most cases; a small flat-head screwdriver may help with removal.
Frequently Asked Questions
What dryers is the 12138200000320 compatible with?
The 12138200000320 door catch is used on select Midea and Insignia dryer models. Insignia is a Best Buy house brand whose appliances are manufactured by Midea. Always verify your exact model number before ordering to confirm this catch fits your dryer's door latch assembly.
Why won't my dryer start even though I'm closing the door?
If the door catch is broken or worn, the door may not be engaging the door switch firmly enough to signal the control board that the door is closed. Most dryers will not run unless the door switch is fully activated. Replacing the 12138200000320 catch restores the firm snap needed to trigger the switch. If replacing the catch does not resolve the start issue, the door switch itself may also need to be checked.
Do I need to replace the door strike as well?
Not necessarily. In most cases only the door catch (the spring-clip on the door) needs replacement. The door strike (the post or tab on the cabinet that the catch snaps onto) is typically more durable. Inspect the strike for cracks or breakage before ordering — if it is intact, just the 12138200000320 catch is all you need.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Midea OEM part, but is manufactured from durable plastic to match the dimensions and function of the original 12138200000320 door catch.

W11568627 Genuine OEM Whirlpool/Kenmore Dryer Drum Belt
The W11568627 is a genuine OEM drum (cylinder) belt for select Whirlpool and Kenmore front-load dryers. This belt wraps around the outside of the drum and routes around the drive motor pulley and idler pulley — it's what actually spins the drum during a drying cycle while the motor and blower keep running independently. Over time this belt stretches, glazes, or cracks from heat and friction, and it eventually slips or snaps, leaving the drum motionless even though the rest of the dryer still runs.
Manufactured by Whirlpool to factory spec for smooth, durable drum operation under high-demand drying cycles, this is a genuine OEM part — not an aftermarket equivalent — so fit and long-term performance match what came on the dryer originally.
Quick Answer
The Genuine OEM W11568627 Dryer Drum Belt fixes a Whirlpool or Kenmore dryer whose drum won't spin, or that runs with a rubbing/thumping noise from the drum area. Genuine OEM replacement, factory fit. Classic symptom: motor and airflow run normally, but the drum sits still — or a rubbing sound right before the belt fails completely.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer runs (motor and airflow work) but the drum doesn't spin
Rubbing, squealing, or thumping noise from inside the dryer during operation
Clothes bunch up in one spot instead of tumbling
Burning rubber smell from a slipping or overheating belt
Visible cracking, glazing, or fraying on the old belt
Dryer drum spins freely by hand with no resistance from the motor
Cross Reference Information
Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item.
Replaces Part Numbers

W10577771 is the previous Whirlpool part number for this belt; W11568627 is the current production number. We were not able to confirm additional cross-reference numbers beyond these two at this time. If you have one, contact our support team before ordering and we will verify compatibility.

Note: Not all applicable models are necessarily listed above — this is the compatibility data we were able to confirm from available sourcing, and Whirlpool may use this belt on additional models not shown here.

Installation Notes
ℹ️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the dryer or switch off its circuit breaker before beginning. Remove the dryer's front or rear access panel per your model's service guide to reach the drum, motor pulley, and idler pulley. Release tension on the idler pulley to slip the old belt off, and note the belt's routing path around the drum and pulleys before removing it — a photo taken beforehand makes reinstallation much easier. Loop the new belt around the drum with the ribbed side against the drum surface, then route it around the motor pulley and back around the idler pulley in the same path as the original, making sure it isn't twisted. Reinstall the idler pulley to restore proper tension, then rotate the drum by hand to confirm the belt tracks straight and doesn't rub before closing up the panel.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer runs but the drum won't turn — is this the part I need?
Yes, in most cases. A broken or badly slipped drum belt is the most common cause of a dryer that powers on, runs the motor and blower, and still produces heat and airflow, but the drum itself sits motionless.
Is W10577771 the same belt as W11568627?
Yes. W10577771 was the earlier Whirlpool part number for this belt; W11568627 is the current production number for the same design. If your dryer's parts diagram shows W10577771, this part is the correct current replacement.
My exact model isn't listed — will this still fit?
Possibly. Whirlpool uses this belt across a range of models beyond what's confirmed in our current compatibility data. Contact our support team with your full model number and we'll verify fit before you order.
Do I need to replace the idler pulley at the same time?
Not necessarily — this listing is for the belt only. However, if your idler pulley is worn, noisy, or doesn't spin freely, it's worth inspecting and replacing while the dryer is already apart, since a bad idler pulley can shorten the life of a new belt.
