The original component had worn out over time on our appliance ended up being caused by a failing part. Mounting holes lined up correctly during install and the replacement solved it.

Needed basic hand tools only while replacing the old component because the older unit needed replacement part. Appliance has been running normally since then.

Wasnt completely sure this would match at first since the appliance suddenly stopped working properly. Thankfully connector alignment matched better than expected and everything is working again.
