The Pump and Drive Belt Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washing machines. The Pump and drive belt kit is responsible for helping to drain water from the washer drum during the wash cycle. The pump and drive belt kit works by powering the washer's pump to remove water from the drum and out of the washer. The drive belt provides the power to turn the pump, while the pump helps to drain the water. The kit includes 1 pump belt and 1 drive belt.

This part fixes the following symptoms:

• Standing water in the washer drum
• Ineffective or non-existent water drainage
• Potential water damage or flooding caused by a faulty pump or drive belt

Causes of needing to replace the pump and drive belt kit include normal wear and tear over extended use, exposure to debris or foreign objects, or physical damage from impact or mishandling.

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

The Agitator is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It is the central component in the washing machine drum, responsible for moving the water and clothes around to ensure thorough cleaning. The agitator’s movement helps to release dirt and distribute detergent evenly throughout the load.

Causes of a bad Agitator include the wear and tear of daily use, the breakdown of its internal components like the gears or the agitator dogs, or overload of the machine that can stress the agitator.

Symptoms of a failing Agitator are:

• Ineffective cleaning of clothes
• Unusual noises during the wash cycle
• The agitator moving loosely or not at all

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

The Lid Switch Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This kit includes the lid switch and all necessary components for installation. The lid switch ensures that the washing machine operates only when the lid is securely closed, acting as a safety mechanism to prevent accidents.

Over time, the lid switch can fail due to repeated use, exposure to moisture, or accidental damage. Electrical issues can also affect its functionality, making it necessary to replace the switch to restore proper operation.

Symptoms of a bad lid switch include:

• The washing machine not starting or stopping mid-cycle
• The drum not spinning or agitating
• The lid not locking properly during operation
• Error codes related to lid issues

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

The Motor Mount Roller and Spring Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This kit includes the motor mount, roller, and spring, which work together to support and stabilize the motor during the wash and spin cycles. These components are crucial for minimizing vibrations and ensuring the motor runs smoothly and efficiently.

Causes of a bad motor mount, roller, or spring can include normal wear and tear over time, heavy or unbalanced loads that put extra stress on the components, and accidental damage or impact. 

Symptoms of a bad motor mount, roller, or spring include:

• Excessive noise during the wash or spin cycle
• Vibrations or shaking of the washing machine
• The drum not spinning properly
• Motor misalignment or poor performance

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