Description

This drive shaft connects the washer transmission to the agitator/spin assembly, transferring motor power so the tub can agitate and spin. Replaces a worn or broken shaft to restore normal drum movement. What it does

• Transfers rotational force from the transmission to the agitator or drum assembly.
• Commonly replaced when the washer won't agitate or spin, or when there is wobbling or grinding noise during cycles.
• Restores secure coupling between transmission and agitator components to prevent slipping.
• Works as the mechanical link inside the washer's drive system; not an electrical component.

What's included

• One drive shaft.

Install notes

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repairs.
• Basic disassembly typically requires removing the agitator and accessing the transmission; follow the OEM service manual for steps.
• Inspect surrounding seals, bearings, and the transmission coupling while the unit is open; replace related parts if damaged.
