Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Spring Clip (Part Number: OEM18035070)

1 Answer

Rob, There are 2 slits in the front part of the ducting that one side of the clip will go into and hook into place. The other end will just hang in there. You may have to disassembly the unit to put it back into place. You would feed it into the top slot with the flat end and then through the second slot and the hooked end will hook around the top slot opening.

Len for Model Number WED8300SW0

Each time someone has asked how to install this part, it's met with the same exact response. OBVIOUSLY that explanation is not helping anyone. I'm one of them. By looking at the parts diagram, it's obvious where the part is supposed to go, and how it's to be oriented. But once you take apart that particular assy., how to install this clip is NOT apparent. All I need is a picture of what its supposed to look like in it's installed proper position, and I would have been done an hour ago. If I insert the "curled" end (both ends can be considered curled) in the slit in the wall, where does the other side go. It just flops there freely? If so, it blocks the lint screen from going in all the way. Frustrated because this should be way easier than this, and this website offers NO help.

Len, There are 2 slits in the exhaust duct at the front on the unit. When you put this part in you will slide the flat end through the upper slit and then through the second slit and slide it down until the hooked end hooks around the upper slit.

Hello Ed, This clip clips inside of the lint duct assembly to prevent socks and other large items from contacting the blower wheel. The end with the curve made in it goes toward the front of the machine.

This clip part # WP8066208 has a curled end on one end. Use it to hold the clip while sliding it in from the back of the cabinet on the top of the dryer vent pipe. It is there to be placed in so the opposite end (flat end) is at the 12:00 position of the vent tube and the tension at the cabinet rear wall opening. It keeps it from a rattling vent tube noise. Thank You.
