This is a washing machine gearcase. The purpose of the gearcase is to drive the agitator and spin the basket within the washing machine.

The user may also notice a burning odor that comes from the washing machine while it's in operation. Sometimes, the washing machine will attempt to agitate and run the spin cycle at the same time. If this is the case, the gearcase needs to be replaced. The appliance will need to be unplugged before replacing this part. Wear gloves to protect the hands for this process.This component is compatible with washing machines that are manufactured by Whirlpool, Kenmore, and Maytag. It is sold individually.
