Whirlpool Housing Kit W11158805 OEM Part

The Dispenser Housing integrated into washing machines includes both hot and cold water inlet valves. This component is produced by Whirlpool, which also manufactures items for various brands, including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. In addition, Whirlpool supplies products for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea.

The Spanner Nut is an authentic OEM component specifically crafted for Whirlpool washing machines. This essential hardware plays a significant role in securing and stabilizing internal parts, especially those related to suspension and tub balance. It effectively minimizes vibration during the spin cycle, reducing both noise and machine movement.

Signs that the spanner nut may be faulty include:

- Audible rattling or clanking noises emanating from the machine
- An uneven or wobbling spin of the wash tub and basket
- Cracks or damage in the housing that compromise the machine's structural soundness
- Difficulties in balancing loads, leading to off-center spins

This replacement part is compatible with appliances from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore as well.
