Maytag Washer Dryer Combo LSE9900AEE Marks left on clothes

The Tumbler Bearing Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washing machines. It includes multiple replacement glides that support the movement of the wash basket or tub. As it rotates during the wash cycle, the tub experiences friction that the bearings help manage.  For rear drum support rollers, order 12001541. Please note that repair requires two kits.

Symptoms of bad bearings include:

• Excessive noise or vibrations emanating from the tub area
• Difficulty rotating or spinning the tub by hand  
• Visible wear on the bearings
• Premature breakdown of other components due to increased stress

Causes of bearing failure can be normal wear over time from the consistent rotational motion. Using the washer with an unbalanced load can accelerate bearing deterioration.

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

The Drum Felt Seal is an OEM part for Whirlpool electric and gas dryers. Located between the drum and front panel, this multi-layered seal helps prevent lint buildup and moisture escape during cycles.  

Causes of a bad dryer drum felt seal can include cracking, flaking or separation of felt layers from age. Oil or other residue trapped in the fibers can also degrade sealing efficiency.

Symptoms of a bad dryer drum felt seal include:

• Trapped moisture inside dryer drum between loads
• Longer drying cycles to remove all moisture
• Excess lint visible behind and around the felt seal

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