(SOLENOID NOT AVAILABLE MUST ORDER ICE DOOR KIT 12001991)

This spline insert is the small splined bushing that fits onto a drive shaft to transfer rotational force between the motor/shaft and the driven part. It restores a secure, slip-free connection for proper appliance operation. What it does:

• Provides a keyed, splined interface between the drive shaft and the driven component to transfer torque
• Prevents slip or loss of drive that can cause the drum/agitator to stop turning
• Worn or damaged splines can cause grinding, slipping, or intermittent movement
• Restoring the insert can eliminate looseness and reduce related noise

• Disconnect power before servicing; follow all safety precautions
• Access and removal often require removing the relevant panel or assembly (drum/agitator area)
• Inspect mating shaft and surrounding components for wear and replace as needed
• Install with correct orientation and fully seat on the splined shaft; test operation after reassembly

This threaded fastener secures critical components within your washer's mechanical system, typically found on the drive assembly or suspension. Replace when the nut is stripped, corroded, or loose, which can cause excessive vibration or mechanical failure.
