This central shaft connects the motor to the washer transmission and includes a securing collar for proper alignment. Located at the bottom of the wash basket, it transfers power for agitation and spin cycles. Replace when the washer won't agitate, makes grinding noises, or the basket won't spin properly.

This idler pulley guides and maintains tension on the dryer drive belt to help the drum rotate smoothly. Replacing a worn pulley restores correct belt tracking and reduces noise from rubbing or slipping. What it does

• Guides the dryer drive belt and keeps proper belt tension
• Helps the drum turn smoothly during normal operation
• Commonly used when you hear squeaking, grinding, or belt slipping noises
• Prevents premature belt wear and misalignment

• One idler pulley

• Disconnect power before starting any repair; the appliance is de-energized
• Basic hand tools required; remove the front or access panel and drum as needed per your model's service instructions
• Inspect the belt and bearing surfaces; replace belt if damaged or glazed
• Do not lubricate the pulley unless the OEM specifically directs it; replace if bearing is noisy or seized

Prevents oil leaks from the transmission area. Replace if you see oil puddles under your washer. Confirm fit with your model number before ordering.

This pin collar is a small retaining fastener that secures a shaft or component in place, preventing lateral movement and keeping assemblies aligned for reliable operation. It's a simple replacement to restore proper fit and function. What it does

• Retains shafts, pins, or small components to prevent sliding or separation
• Helps maintain alignment of moving parts for smooth operation
• Commonly replaced when parts shift, wobble, or fall out of position
• Works as a low-profile mechanical stop in various appliance linkages

• Pin collar (single)

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Verify orientation and seating against the mating part; install so collar fully engages the shaft or groove
• Use appropriate tools and avoid hammering or forcing the part to prevent damage
• Reinstall retaining rings or additional hardware in the original order

Small drive gear inside the washer transmission gearcase that meshes with mating gears. Replace when worn, stripped, or damaged to restore power transfer.

Washer won't spin or spins weakly? A worn clutch plate causes slipping and shuddering during spin cycles. Moderate DIY repair restores reliable performance.

A small trim screw designed to secure appliance trim pieces and molding, restoring a finished look and keeping panels held firmly in place. Ideal when a trim piece is loose, missing a fastener, or shows minor rattling. What it does:

• Fastens trim, molding, or decorative panels to the appliance frame
• Restores secure mounting and helps eliminate loose or rattling trim
• Replaces missing or stripped fasteners that cause gaps or poor fit
• Compatible with common trim attachment points where OEM screw is specified

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before attempting repairs
• Use the correct screwdriver bit to match the screw head to avoid stripping
• Install by hand to start threads, then tighten snugly—do not overtighten
• Verify trim alignment after installation and test that the panel is secure

High-temperature adhesive secures gaskets, seals, and feet in hot zones. Replace when parts loosen or seals fail. Confirm fit with your model number.

Fix a loose or slipping agitator that clicks or ratchets during wash cycles. This spring restores proper tension inside the agitator assembly.

Replacement lug stop that limits movement of a mechanical component to prevent over-travel and reduce wear. Restores proper stopping action so doors or internal mechanisms operate more smoothly and safely. What it does:

• Stops or limits travel of a moving part to prevent over-rotation or over-extension.
• Keeps doors, lids or internal linkages from swinging past their intended position.
• Replace if the lug is cracked, worn, broken, missing, or if the mechanism fails to stop or rattles.
• Helps prevent further damage from metal-on-metal contact or excessive movement.

• Disconnect power before starting any repair.
• Basic hand tools and access panel removal may be required to reach the mounting area.
• Inspect adjacent clips, fasteners and mating surfaces; replace any damaged hardware.

Located beneath the washer tub, this gear assembly transfers power from the motor to create the agitation and spin cycles. Replace when clothes aren't getting clean, the washer won't spin, or you hear loud grinding or clicking noises during operation.

Washer making noise or controls not stopping correctly? This stop lug limits component movement to prevent over-travel. Simple snap-in repair.

This small spacer washer fits in the washer's drive assembly to set the correct clearance between mating parts. Proper spacing helps components rotate smoothly and quietly while minimizing metal-to-metal contact and premature wear.

• Maintains the specified gap and alignment within the drive/brake or pulley stack
• Helps reduce friction, rubbing, and vibration
• A worn, distorted, or missing spacer can contribute to scraping or grinding noises and excess play
• Often replaced during service of related drive components to restore correct stack order

• Disconnect power before servicing; shut off water if moving the appliance
• Access and procedure vary by model—refer to your unit's service manual or parts diagram for the correct stack order
• Support the appliance if working from below; remove belt/pulley or related parts as required
• Reassemble in the exact order and orientation; verify free rotation before test-running
