Chris November 01, 2018 for Model Number VVSR1040V2WW Several months ago, due to a loud spin cycle, we replaced the transmission/brake assembly, hub, bearing washer, seal, and hub washer. The other day, the washer had a very bad imbalance and was left alone; my wife returned to the washer moved about 6 inches out of place and it would not spin or agitate. I purchased and replaced the agitator coupling after some research, but then I noticed that the lid switch striker was completely separated, which I put back into place. Now the unit will spin, but will not agitate (even with the new agitator coupling). The belt/pulley move freely by hand, but the transmission does not move at that time. The transmission housing moves during the spin cycle. The belt seems to have good tension and be in good shape, along with the clutch retaining clip. The motor/transmission/clutch/belt seem to move correctly during the spin cycle, but nothing happens during agitation cycle (with the top closed). Thanks.
1 Answer Chris, I would remove the front panel and visually check my wire harness connections at the motor and door lock to make sure no damage was done. Read More...
Tom June 06, 2018 for Model Number wwse5200b1ww The washer goes through a wash cycle then does not drain. I think its not spinning.
1 Answer Tom, If the washer doesn't drain, it won't spin, So, First check the magnetic lid switch and wiring WH12X10141, the lid has to be down, and the switch has to "close" for the washer to drain and spin. Then check for voltage to the drain pump WH23X10030 in the final spin and drain cycle. If you have the voltage, the drain pump has failed, If no voltage, but the lid switch is OK, check or replace the timer. Read More...
Greg T. May 26, 2018 for Model Number GE Washing Machine WJSR2080T8WW I need to replace the Agitator Coupler. I just want to make sure this new version will fit my 18-year-old model. Also, the grooves on the drive shaft seem about 15-20% worn down, will this affect the longevity of the new coupler?
1 Answer Hello Greg, The coupler splines are plastic and the splines on the shaft are steel. The shaft splines will not wear against the plastic. The plastic splines are the ones that wear out and when looking inside it, they normally look good until touching them with a small screwdriver or something when it becomes apparent that the splines are actually the grease to prevent the shaft from rusting has taken the shape of the splines. Replacing the coupler WH49X10042 will correct your issue and the shaft should not be a concern. Read More...
Don S M May 22, 2018 for Model Number WDSR2080D My GE WASHER is starting to send smoke in the air when the washer starts to load water for clothes starting.
1 Answer Don, Are you sure it's smoke and not steam from the hot water ? You will need to remove power then remove the control console(3 screws) and "roll" it forward and check the wiring and damage to the switches, timer, and fill valve. Repair any loose connections or damaged wires and any "melted" switch or component(s). Read More...
Eddie February 28, 2018 for Model Number GTWN2800D The agitator is very loose but when it rotates by hand it moves clockwise but doesn't move counterclockwise which I thought thats the way its suppose to be.Do I need the agitator coupler kit? Which one would I need? The model is a G.E. GTWN2800D
1 Answer Eddie, The rotation would be correct and it does sound like the agitator coupler would need to be replaced. The part number for the coupler would be WH43X10032. Make sure that it is not loose on the shaft. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Julian. Sorry, you will need to contact the manufacturer for this information on the unit. Thank you. Read More...
Nikki November 27, 2017 for Model Number WHDSR315DAWW I HAVE TO REPLACE THE AGITATOR COUPLER, WHAT TYPE AND SIZE TOOL WILL I NEED?

Buddy C. August 22, 2017 for Model Number WCXR1070A1WW I have an old but wonderful GE washer that does not agitate nor spin. It fills with water, runs through the cycle, sounds like it is spinning, but is not when I open the lid and then drains the water and then leaves the clothes absolutely soaked. Would this be the agitator coupler?
1 Answer Hello Buddy, This is more likely the belt WH1X2026 or clutch assembly WH5X256 since the coupler has nothing to do with spin. Read More...
Karl August 06, 2017 for Model Number WJRR4170E4WW Your diagram shows part 310/301 with a part number that is compatible with part 175D2110P002, but the part that came off of my machine has a number 175D2846P001. Are the the same part?
1 Answer Karl, The agitator coupling for your unit will be part number WH49X10042 and will be the same as the original but maybe a slight design change or the manufacturer just changed vendors would be the difference in the numbers. Read More...
