Whirlpool Bellow-to-tub clamp / washer door boot spring clamp WP8540108, Replaces 8540108

Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• The inner/rear edge of the door boot is loose, displaced, or will not remain seated on the tub lip.
• Water appears around the door-boot area during a cycle when the bellow-to-tub seal is not retained correctly.

Check Before Replacing

• Disconnect power before inspection.
• With the washer off, inspect the inner/rear circumference of the door bellow and confirm its lip is seated evenly on the outer-tub rim.
• Inspect the clamp for displacement, distortion, corrosion, or a missing/relaxed spring section.
• Check for water tracks or residue at the bellow-to-tub joint; this indicates a seal-area leak but does not by itself prove the clamp is the failed part.
• Verify the correct clamp location: this part is the bellow-to-tub (rear) clamp, not the separate bellow-to-front-panel clamp.

Installation Notes

• Disconnect electrical power before servicing.
• Install only after confirming the door-bellow lip is seated evenly on the outer-tub rim.
• Use the model-specific service procedure for clamp placement and tensioning; an improperly seated bellow or clamp can compromise the seal.
• Do not interchange this rear bellow-to-tub clamp with the separate front-panel bellow clamp.
