XPARTCO WH16X29509 Washer Damper Vent
The XPARTCO WH16X29509 is an aftermarket replacement washer damper vent compatible with select GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore front-load washers in the GFW510, GFW550, and GFW650 series. The damper vent is a one-way flap valve located on the drain system that automatically opens during draining to equalize pressure inside the drain pipe, allowing water to drain quickly and completely. When closed, it seals the drain path to prevent backflow of residual dirty water and lint from re-entering the drum and soiling clean laundry.
Made from high-strength plastic with a reinforced hinge mechanism, this damper vent is designed to resist deformation under high-frequency operation and to prevent lint accumulation that can cause blockages. It directly replaces OEM part numbers WH16X29509, 4982970, AP6990392, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Snap-in installation requires no special tools and takes just minutes to complete.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WH16X29509 Washer Damper Vent fixes GE front-load washers displaying error codes 38, 39, 40, or 84, draining slowly, or returning dirty water or lint to clean clothes. The damper opens during draining and closes to block backflow. Compatible with GE GFW510, GFW550, and GFW650 series. Snap-in installation — no tools required.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Slow or incomplete draining during the wash or spin cycle
Dirty water or lint backflowing into the drum and soiling clean laundry

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting Unplug the washer from the power outlet before beginning any repair. The damper vent is located in the drain system — typically accessible from the front lower panel or by removing the washer's access panel. Locate the existing damper vent on the drain hose or drain port. Press the tabs or release clips to remove the old damper vent from its snap-in mounting position. Align the new WH16X29509 damper vent with the mounting port and press firmly until it snaps into place. Restore power and run a short drain or rinse cycle to verify the washer drains correctly and no error codes are displayed. Tools needed: None for the damper vent itself; a screwdriver may be needed to remove the access panel on some models.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the washer damper vent do?
The damper vent is a one-way valve on the washer's drain system. During the drain cycle, it opens automatically to equalize the air pressure inside the drain hose, which allows water to drain quickly and completely. When draining stops, the flap closes to create a seal that prevents residual wastewater and lint from flowing back up the drain hose and into the drum — which would re-soil clothes that have already been washed.
What error codes does a failed damper vent cause on GE washers?
A blocked, stuck, or failed WH16X29509 damper vent is a known cause of error codes 38, 39, 40, and 84 on compatible GE GFW510, GFW550, and GFW650 series front-load washers. These codes are typically triggered when the control board detects a drain pressure or flow issue. Replacing the damper vent resolves the issue in many cases when the drain pump and hose are otherwise clear.
How do I know if my damper vent has failed?
Common signs of a failed damper vent include slow or incomplete draining, one of the error codes listed above, dirty water or lint reappearing on clothes after a wash cycle, or a stuck flap that is visibly open or closed when it should not be. You can inspect the damper vent by removing the access panel and checking whether the flap moves freely — it should open easily when you apply gentle pressure and spring closed when released.
Is the WH16X29509 compatible with GE Profile and GE Café washers?
The WH16X29509 is confirmed compatible with select GFW and PFW series models from GE and GE Profile. GE Café washers use different model series — verify your specific model number before ordering. Contact our support team if you need help confirming compatibility for your Café or Profile model.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured from high-strength plastic to match the dimensions and performance of the original WH16X29509 damper vent.

XPARTCO 279393 Dryer Terminal Block Screw Kit
The XPARTCO 279393 is an aftermarket replacement terminal block screw kit compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool-family electric dryers including Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Roper, Admiral, Estate, Crosley, Inglis, Magic Chef, and Norge. The terminal block screws secure the dryer power cord wires to the terminal block — the connection point where 240V power enters the dryer.

This kit includes 3 chrome-plated screws and 3 nuts — everything needed to restore a secure, conductive connection at the terminal block. The chrome plating improves electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. Screws measure 7/16" L x 7/16" W x 11/16" H; nuts measure 1/2" L x 1/2" W x 1/8" H. Installs in under 15 minutes with basic hand tools.

⚠️ Electrical Safety Warning This kit connects the power cord to the dryer's terminal block — a high-voltage connection carrying 240V. Always unplug the dryer and shut off the circuit breaker before beginning installation. Loose or improperly tightened terminal screws can cause arcing, overheating, blown fuses, or fire. If you are not comfortable working with high-voltage electrical connections, have this part installed by a qualified appliance technician.
Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug and Switch Off Breaker Before Starting Unplug the dryer from the wall outlet and turn off the circuit breaker for the dryer before beginning any work on the terminal block. Locate the terminal block cover plate on the back of the dryer and remove it by unscrewing the retaining screw. Use needle-nose pliers to carefully disconnect the power cord wires from the terminal block. Remove the old screws and nuts using a Phillips or flat-head screwdriver. Install the new 279393 screws and nuts into the terminal block. Reconnect the power cord wires to the correct terminals — refer to the label inside the terminal block cover or your dryer's wiring diagram to confirm wire positions. Tighten all screws firmly but do not overtighten. Replace the terminal block cover plate. Restore power and run a test cycle to verify correct operation. Tip: While the cover is off, inspect the terminal block itself (part 694431) for burn marks or damage. If the block is damaged, replace it before reinstalling. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, flat-head screwdriver, needle-nose pliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the terminal block screw kit used for?
The terminal block screw kit secures the three wires of the dryer's power cord (two hots and a neutral, or two hots and a ground depending on cord type) to the terminal block at the back of the dryer. This is the point where 240V power enters the machine. The screws must be firmly tightened to maintain a safe, low-resistance electrical connection. If they loosen or corrode over time, resistance increases at the connection — causing heat, arcing, blown fuses, or power loss.
Can I also use this kit when installing a new dryer power cord?
Yes — this kit is commonly needed when installing a new 3-wire or 4-wire dryer power cord. When switching from a 3-wire to 4-wire cord (or vice versa), the terminal block screws and nuts often need to be loosened and retightened, and replacing them with a fresh set ensures a secure, corrosion-free connection from the start.
Should I also inspect the terminal block itself?
Yes. While the terminal block cover is off, inspect the block itself (part 694431) for burn marks, melted plastic, or damaged terminals. If the block shows any of these signs, it should be replaced before reinstalling — new screws alone cannot fix a damaged terminal block. Contact our support team to find the correct terminal block for your model.
Does this kit work for gas dryers?
No. Gas dryers use a standard 120V three-prong household plug and do not have a terminal block for power cord connections. The 279393 kit is for electric dryers only, which use a 240V outlet and require a hard-wired terminal block connection for the power cord.
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 made from chrome-plated metal to match the dimensions and electrical performance of the original 279393 screw kit.

2 Pack - 12638000004021 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Drum Roller
The 12638000004021 is a genuine Midea OEM dryer drum support roller, sold under the Frigidaire/Midea manufacturing relationship for Midea-built dryers and select Frigidaire, Insignia, and Kenmore dryers using this same platform. This roller sits underneath the drum, along its rear support track, and does the physical work of holding the drum's weight while letting it turn freely as the belt drives it around. A dryer typically uses more than one of these rollers working together to keep the drum properly supported and centered.
Over time, the wheel and bearing inside the roller wear down from the constant heat and rotation the dryer subjects them to, eventually developing a flat spot, seizing up, or simply wearing thin enough that the drum sits unevenly. A worn roller produces a distinctive symptom: a rumbling, squeaking, or thumping noise that rises and falls with drum rotation, often getting louder as a load tumbles. It directly replaces 5304511415, AP7990985.
Quick Answer
The 12638000004021 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Drum Roller fixes Midea-built dryers (and select Frigidaire, Insignia, and Kenmore dryers on this platform) with a rumbling, squeaking, or thumping noise that rises and falls with drum rotation. Supports and centers the drum on its rear track. Replaces 5304511415, AP7990985.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. On a gas model, also close the gas shutoff valve before moving the cabinet. Wear work gloves — sheet metal edges inside the cabinet are sharp. Access is typically through the rear panel: remove the screws securing the panel, then release the drum belt from the idler pulley to relieve tension so the drum can be supported and moved slightly for access to the rollers underneath. Photograph the roller and axle positions before removing anything. Remove the retaining clip or fastener holding the worn roller's axle in place, then slide the old roller off. Install the new 12638000004021 roller onto the axle in the same orientation, and secure it with the retaining clip or fastener. While you're in there, check the other rollers by spinning each one by hand — if any feel stiff, gritty, or worn, replace them at the same time, since they're typically the same age and wear on a similar schedule. Re-tension the belt around the idler pulley, reassemble the rear panel, restore power, and run a short empty cycle to confirm the noise has resolved. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer makes a rumbling noise that gets louder over time. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is the classic symptom of a worn drum roller. As the wheel and bearing wear down, the noise typically starts subtle and gradually worsens, often becoming most noticeable with a full load as the extra weight puts more load on the worn wheel. If the noise rises and falls in rhythm with the drum turning, a roller is the most likely cause.
Should I replace just one roller, or all of them?
It's worth checking all of them while you have access. Dryers typically use more than one roller supporting the drum, and since they're the same age and under the same stress, if one has worn out the others are often not far behind. Spin each roller by hand — if any feel stiff, gritty, or rough, replace them together to avoid repeating this repair again soon.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Midea to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original wheel design, bearing, and axle fitment of the drum roller originally installed in your dryer.
