Customer Questions and Answers for Shaft Assembly (Shaft Assy) by Ge

Shaft assembly that transfers rotational force from the motor to the appliance's rotating component, restoring smooth, aligned rotation and helping reduce noise and vibration caused by worn or damaged shaft parts. What it does:

• Transfers motor rotation to the appliance's rotating component (drum, basket or agitator depending on model)
• Restores proper alignment to reduce wobble and vibration during operation
• Helps stop grinding, scraping or loud knocking that can occur when a shaft is worn or damaged
• Works with existing bearings/bushings to maintain smooth rotation

• Always disconnect power at the breaker before removing panels or working on the appliance; if the appliance uses gas, shut off the gas supply as required.
• Follow the appliance service manual for disassembly order and correct shaft orientation during installation.
• Inspect related bearings, bushings, seals and fasteners; replace any worn components to prevent premature failure.
