General Electric Washer WARE5260DCWW Will not agitate or doesn't agitate

The Washer Agitator Coupler Kit is an OEM part for GE washing machines. This kit includes the coupler component that connects the agitator to the washing machine's transmission. It plays a pivotal role in the washing process by transmitting rotational force from the motor to the agitator, enabling it to move back and forth and effectively clean clothes.

Symptoms of a bad Washer Agitator Coupler include:

• The agitator failing to move or moving weakly during cycles, which can result in poorly washed clothes.
• Unusual noises from the washing machine during operation, indicating a mechanical issue.
• The agitator slipping or feeling loose when manually pushed or pulled.

Causes of a bad agitator coupler can include wear and tear from regular use, excessive load sizes that strain the agitator, or material fatigue that weakens the coupler over time.

This OEM replacement part is essential for restoring proper functionality to your GE washing machine and is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Drive Belt is an OEM part for GE washing machines. This belt is responsible for connecting the motor to the drum, enabling the drum to spin during the wash and spin cycles. For the belt install tool, order part number WX05X20641.

Causes of a bad drive belt can include regular wear and tear from normal usage, overloading the washing machine, or exposure to harsh conditions that cause the belt to crack or fray. When the drive belt is compromised, it can affect the overall performance of the washing machine.

Symptoms of a bad drive belt include:

• The drum not spinning or spinning inconsistently
• A burning smell during operation
• Unusual noises such as squealing or thumping
• The washing machine stopping mid-cycle

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Mode Shifter & Shaft Assembly is an OEM replacement part for GE washing machines. It is a mechanical component located inside the washer tub that allows for shifting between agitation, spin, and other cycles. The mode shifter and shaft assembly receive input from the control system to precisely change the operational mode at designated points in the cycle.

Causes of a bad mode shifter & shaft assembly include worn out or damaged internal gears, stripped or broken shafts, or a loss of integrity in components that restrict smooth shifting between modes.

Symptoms of a bad mode shifter & shaft assembly include:

• Inability to start or change wash cycles
• The washer getting stuck in one mode of operation
• Grinding noises and vibrations during cycle shifts
• Premature ending of cycles

This GE OEM replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Belt Installation Tool is an OEM replacement part for GE washers. It provides the necessary leverage and positioning for hassle-free belt replacement. 

Causes of needing this tool include belts that become cracked or loose over repeated use. Proper belt tension is critical for efficient spinning and drying cycles.

Symptoms of needing this tool include: 

• Vibration or off-center loads during wash or spin cycles
• Slow or ineffective drying 
• Belt slippage that produces a squealing noise

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
