Frigidaire Washer FWX445NBS0 Leaking

The Tub Seal is an OEM part for Frigidaire washing machines. It is designed to create a water-tight seal between the washing machine tub and the transmission or drive system. This seal prevents water from leaking out during the operation of the washer and protects the mechanical components from water damage.

Symptoms of a failing tub seal include:

• Water leaking from the underside of the washing machine.
• Increased moisture or puddles forming under the machine during use.
• A musty or moldy smell, indicating that water has been seeping and not properly drying.

Causes of a bad tub seal can include aging and wear over time, exposure to harsh detergents that degrade the material of the seal, or mechanical stress from unbalanced loads that can cause the seal to fail. It's important to address these issues promptly to prevent further damage to the washing machine.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

The Water Inlet Valve Assembly is an OEM part for Frigidaire washing machines. This assembly controls the flow of water into the washing machine during the fill cycles, ensuring the correct amount of water enters the tub.

Over time, the water inlet valve can become faulty due to mineral buildup, wear and tear from frequent use, or damage to the valve components. If the valve is not functioning properly, it can result in issues with the water flow into your washing machine.

Symptoms of a bad water inlet valve assembly include:

• No water entering the washing machine
• The washer filling slowly or not at all
• The washing machine filling with water when it is turned off
• Leaks from the valve area

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

The Spin Bearing Washer is an OEM part for Frigidaire washing machines. Situated inside the transmission housing, this thin metal washer acts as a subsurface support for the belt pulley bearing. The spin-bearing washer facilitates smooth, balanced rotation essential for agitated and spun wash cycles.

Causes of a bad spin-bearing washer include wear and fatigue from years of successive rotations, potentially allowing excessive movement between housing components.

Symptoms of a bad spin-bearing washer involve:

• Vibration or shaking noises coming from inside the washer cabinet
• Belt slippage wasting energy by inefficiently spinning loads
• Increased friction resulting in longer cycle times for spins
• Failure of belts or other components from unsupported bearing

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

The trunnion is the hub that mounts the washer's inner tub to the drive shaft. Replacing a worn hub restores a solid, centered connection so the basket spins smoothly without wobble, slip, or grinding. What it does:

• Secures and centers the spin basket on the drive shaft for balanced rotation
• Transfers drive torque to the inner tub during spin
• Helps maintain basket alignment to reduce vibration
• Typical symptoms of failure: loose/wobbly tub, scraping or grinding noises, poor or no spin, frequent out-of-balance events

• 1 trunnion

• Disconnect power and water before service; wear gloves and eye protection
• Access the hub by removing top/access parts, then the agitator/wash plate and inner-tub fasteners
• Clean the shaft and mating surfaces; seat the new trunnion fully and tighten fasteners evenly in a crisscross pattern
• Inspect related parts (tub seal, bolts, bearing) while open and replace if worn; run a short test cycle to ensure smooth spin
