Brackets, gussets, clamps, and fasteners keep assemblies aligned under vibration. Loose mounting leads to noise and repeat failures. If the machine is showing misalignment, inspect this area for looseness, rubbing marks, mineral buildup, or secondary damage to nearby parts. If the fault changes with vibration or after moving panels, look for borderline fitment, loose connectors, or wear marks around the installation area. Diagnosing misalignment can come down to one worn component—Nut (part 03-1394-01) is a common replacement item. Disconnect power before service. Reinstall so nothing pinches, rubs, or binds once the unit is back together. Once the root cause is corrected, performance should stabilize and output should return to normal. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period. Take a photo before disassembly so you can confirm orientation and fastener locations during reassembly. Recheck fasteners after a short run-in period; vibration can loosen hardware if it isn’t seated correctly. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period. Clean the area around the repair so debris doesn’t interfere with fitment or sealing surfaces.
