Customer Questions and Answers for Belt And Isolator Kit by Whirlpool

Best Seller
Manufacturer Part
4.89 (64)
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: OEM12027132
Manufacturer Part Number: 12001788

The Belt and Isolator Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This kit includes a drive belt and isolators that work together to transfer motion from the motor to the washer drum while dampening vibrations. 

Over time, the belt can wear out, stretch, or break due to regular use, heavy loads, or friction. The isolators may also deteriorate, losing their ability to absorb shocks effectively.

Symptoms of a bad Belt and Isolator Kit include:

  • The drum not spinning or agitating
  • Excessive vibration or noise during operation
  • The washer failing to start or complete cycles

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Rick, You will want to ensure that the pulley is not warped or moving in an odd way that would cause the issue. Also make sure that the motor is securely in place.

Laurence S for Model Number MAH21PNAGW

Hi there. My problem is that I needed to replace the drive belt on my Maytag washer. So I ordered the same part number 6272 2870 from an ebay trader, and had it shipped to the UK. I assumed it was the same length… WRONG. When I came to fit it yesterday, It turns out that it’s too short. My old belt is 54” long (may have stretched a little bit over 9 years). The new belt I received (Made in Brazil, by the way) is only 52” long with the part number clearly printed on it 6272 2870. Please help me. Is there another belt with a different part number that has replaced 6272 2870 for my washer. If so what is it’s number, do you stock it, how much is it and will you ship it to the UK for me?

Hello Laurence. These belt are extremely tight and difficult to install. Start the belt onto the small motor pulley and roll it onto the large pulley. If the numbers match, it should be correct. 12001788 is the correct belt and is 52 5/8 inches.

Mark M. for Model Number MLE2000AYW

Hello, I need to replace my Neptune washer belt. I previously purchased a replacement belt online and despite having the identical part # to my belt PN 62722870, the replacement belt was too short. My belt is 54.5" and the FSP OEM replacement was 53" and did not fit. The part # on the bag the replacement part came in is 12001788. The company I bought it from said there were two belts for my machine and I needed the longer one? However since the part number on the shorter belt was identical to the part number on my longer belt, I am very confused. What part # do I really need? Thanks, Mark

Sergey, It is recommended to replace both the isolators and the belt at the same time. If this is not done, there is the potential for the new belt to be damaged as well.

Hello Nicole. You need to check and see if the bearings are bad in the tub and need to be replaced. This will cause the belt to come off.

Rob for Model Number MAH3000AGW

I'm trying to replace the belt on my MAH3000AGW. The original belt is printed with the following: "MAYTAG 22002040 62706950". Ordered from your website belt part number WPL 12001788 (according to your website recomendation). The belt arrived and its 42mm shorter than the original (1.6 IN shorter). Lenght of original 1380mm. Length or replacement received: 1338mm. Called costumer service and they told me the original may have streched. The original is dificult to install as it is (using the recommended technique of starting from the motor and then rolling it on the big pulley). There is now way to strech the replacement so much to make it fit (and even if it is possible to do, there will be a huge load on the bearings). Please recheck the lenghts specified here, and let me know. Thanks Rob

Hello Rob. Based on the model number and the old part number on the belt, 12001788 is the correct belt. These are very tight and most likely, the old belt is stretched and that is the reason it is larger.
