Admiral Washer LATA400AAE Spins slowly

The Washer Drive Belt is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It is crucial for transmitting the power from the motor to the drum, enabling the washing machine to tumble and spin during the wash and spin cycles. The drive belt wraps around the motor and drum pulleys, providing the necessary traction and tension to operate efficiently.

Causes of a bad Washer Drive Belt can include stretching over time, which reduces its efficiency to grip the pulleys properly, or fraying and cracking due to age and normal wear and tear. Misalignment or improper installation can also lead to premature belt failure.

Symptoms of a bad Washer Drive Belt include:

• The washing machine failing to spin or agitate.
• A burning smell or unusual noises during operation, indicating slippage or rubbing.
• Visible signs of wear like cracks, fraying, or noticeable looseness on the belt.

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

The Thrust Bearing Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This kit is essential for the proper operation of the washer's transmission system, allowing the drive system to engage smoothly and efficiently. 

Over time, components within the thrust bearing kit can wear down or become damaged due to the constant stress and movement they endure during the wash cycle. This wear can lead to issues with the washing machine's ability to agitate or spin correctly.

Symptoms of a bad Thrust Bearing Kit include:

• The washing machine is noisy during operation
• The washer struggles to agitate or spin
• The washing machine may fail to spin at all, leaving clothes wet at the end of the cycle
• Excessive vibration during use

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Snubber Ring is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This part dampens the vibration and noise produced during the washer's spin cycle. Positioned at the base of the tub, the snubber ring provides a cushion that absorbs the impact between the moving parts and the stationary frame of the washer. 

Over time, wear or dust on the snubber ring can reduce its effectiveness, causing increased vibration, noise, and stress on the washing machine components, possibly leading to premature failure.

Symptoms of a bad Snubber Ring include:

• Unusual noise during the spin cycle
• The washing machine vibrating more than usual or "walking" across the floor
• Increased wear and tear on other components due to excessive vibration

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