Appliance Help

Doing a multi-model search


Sometimes finding an exact model match is impossible because a few of the digits are missing or have faded over time. Appliance Help gives you additional assistance in finding the parts for you appliance even if you do not have the complete model number.

If you do not have the complete model number or cannot find an exact model match, try entering the first few digits of your model number. The results will display all of the parts that match all of the models beginning with those digits. The more digits you enter the more accurate your results will be.

Manufacturers may change the design of a model every year or so. These models are the similar but may contain different parts. The manufacturers keep the first few digits of a model number and change the remaining digits. That is why some of the parts are the same and some are different. Most of the parts listed will be for your appliance, however, there may be parts listed here that do not match your particular model. Parts can change color, electrical connection, or design.

Enter as many of the digits of your model number as you can to refine your search as much as possible. Click the search button to find the matching parts. This list can be quite lengthy. You may scroll through the pages looking for your part or search by part description.
