Whirlpool WPW10352973 Front Load Washer Dispenser Drawer Actuator

The Front Load Washer Dispenser Drawer Actuator attaches to the top of the detergent dispenser to open and close the dispenser as the cycle requires. If your washer isn’t dispensing detergent properly, replacing the actuator may alleviate the issue. This high-quality and durable part is easy to install with basic hand tools like a multi-screwdriver, some disassembly of the washing machine, and a novice repair experience. Be sure to unplug the washer or shut off the circuit breaker for the appliance before you begin. Take a digital photo of the wiring assembly before you remove the existing part to aid with the installation. Helpful Tip: We also recommend using affresh® Washing Machine Cleaner* (item W10501250) once a month to help reduce odor-causing residue that can build up in your washing machine's drain without proper care. *affresh® brand products are owned and distributed by Whirlpool Corporation.
