Customer Questions and Answers for Bearing by Whirlpool

By: Whirlpool
Part Number: OEM18019101
Manufacturer Part Number: WP22003441

The OEM Replacement is a bearing designed to function as the rear bearing in Whirlpool front-load washers. It also works as the upper brake bearing in top-load washers. Positioned near the tub's brake assembly, this component plays a significant role in the operation of the washer. In top-load washers, it resides above the brake assembly.

Causes of a bad bearing can include prolonged wear and tear, exposure to excessive loads, or water intrusion that leads to rust and corrosion. A compromised bearing can lead to more significant issues if not addressed promptly.

Symptoms of a bad bearing include:

  • Loud, unusual noises during the wash or spin cycles
  • Excessive vibration or movement of the washer
  • The drum not rotating smoothly or becoming stuck
  • Leaks around the drum area

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Answer

Jeremy, On that unit you most likely will need the tub bearing and tub seal assembly 6-2095720 and 6-2040130 and a spanner wrench to do the repair TB123B. A lower radial bearing seldom goes bad, unless you've had a leak and washed all the lubricant out of the bearing. Remove the front panel and isolate the location of the noise, At or neear the bottom of the tub assembly,tub bearing/seal at the base of the machine the radial bearing. Good Luck and Thanks
