Documented appliance models

This is an evidence-backed sample, not an exhaustive fit list. Model revisions and production changes can alter part requirements.

Before you buy

  1. Read the existing part label.Look for WR17X12079 or a manufacturer-backed identifier shown here.
  2. Check the appliance model tag.Use the complete model and revision when available.
  3. Do not infer fit from appearance.Belts, rollers, pulleys and kits can look nearly identical while differing in size, geometry or application. Match the OEM part number and appliance model.
  4. Service safely.Disconnect power before opening the appliance and follow the manufacturer service information for your exact model.

Frequently asked questions

Can I search by appliance model instead?

Yes. The model-number lookup on the catalog homepage uses only documented mappings that have been added to our database.

Is this fit list complete?

No. We publish documented mappings as we verify them. A missing model means “not indexed yet,” not “incompatible.”

Can I trust an aftermarket fit list?

Treat it as a shopping claim rather than our compatibility evidence unless an OEM or manufacturer source supports the same mapping.
