Kenmore Washer Dryer Combo 970.-C98902-00 (970-C98902-00, 970 -C98902-00) Parts

The trunnion is the hub that mounts the washer's inner tub to the drive shaft. Replacing a worn hub restores a solid, centered connection so the basket spins smoothly without wobble, slip, or grinding. What it does:

• Secures and centers the spin basket on the drive shaft for balanced rotation
• Transfers drive torque to the inner tub during spin
• Helps maintain basket alignment to reduce vibration
• Typical symptoms of failure: loose/wobbly tub, scraping or grinding noises, poor or no spin, frequent out-of-balance events

• 1 trunnion

• Disconnect power and water before service; wear gloves and eye protection
• Access the hub by removing top/access parts, then the agitator/wash plate and inner-tub fasteners
• Clean the shaft and mating surfaces; seat the new trunnion fully and tighten fasteners evenly in a crisscross pattern
• Inspect related parts (tub seal, bolts, bearing) while open and replace if worn; run a short test cycle to ensure smooth spin

This gear assembly transfers power from your washer's motor to the agitator and spin basket. It controls the different motions needed for washing and spinning cycles. Replace it if your washer agitator doesn't move, makes loud grinding noises, or fails to spin clothes dry.

This washer switch is both the lid lock and lid switch. New mounting bracket replaces older design. Which means in some applications you may need to drill off old design mounting bracket prior to mounting the new lock. If your replacing the 4 wire switch you will need to tape off light switch leads. The light will no longer be used. Instructions included.

The dryer timer power resistor regulates electrical current to the timer motor in mechanical timer systems. Replace when the timer fails to advance properly, gets stuck in cycles, or the dryer runs continuously without stopping.

Secures wiring harness to prevent chafing and maintain safe wire routing in washers, dryers, and laundry appliances. Replace if loose or broken. Check your model for compatibility.
