4.89 (64)
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: OEM18030483
Manufacturer Part Number: WP63134

The Sound Dampening Ring is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washing machines. Located within the clutch housing, it serves to minimize noise transmission from internal components.

Causes relate to years of absorbing internal impacts fatiguing the damping material. Buildup of grime and detergent residue in its ridges may diminish noise-isolating effectiveness over time.

Symptoms of failure include:

  • Excessive humming or clanking sounds from the transmission area
  • Increased cabinet vibrations felt externally during operation
  • Improper sound insulation leads to a louder overall noise profile

This is a genuine Whirlpool OEM replacement this part is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air and some Kenmore models.

Hello Chad. No, the dampening ring WP63134 will not prevent the unit from spinning. You will need to check the lid switch 3949247V and see if it is broke or bad. If so, it will prevent the unit from spinning and draining the water. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html
