• Re-level the washer and run a test cycle to verify smooth operation

The Mode Shifter Kit is an OEM component for GE washers designed to last through many load cycles. As an essential mechanism, it allows the washer to switch between available cycles like normal, heavy-duty, spin, and more. 

Symptoms of a failing mode shifter include:

• Inability to select certain wash modes or cycles 
• Delays during the wash cycle
• Strange noises coming from inside the washer

Causes of a bad mode shifter can be typical wear and tear, an overloaded washer, or physical impacts inside the unit. With proper use and maintenance, the average lifespan is 7-10 years.

The part fits Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore models as well.

The Spring is an OEM part for GE front-loading washing machines. It is responsible for assisting with the opening and closing of the washer door during the loading and unloading of clothes.

Causes of a bad spring can include cracks or fractures from repeated flexing over thousands of cycles. Stress and damage from excessively heavy loads or forced/slammed door movements can hasten spring failure.

Symptoms of a failed spring include:

• The door being hard to open/close or moving too freely
• An inability to hold the door securely closed
• Unnecessary noise and vibration from the door

Replace the worn spring with this genuine GE OEM part to restore proper function and balance to the door. It is designed for precise performance and durability. This replacement is also compatible with some Kenmore machines using GE components.

The Wire Tie is an OEM part for GE dryers. It is used to secure and organize internal wiring, ensuring that wires remain properly positioned and do not interfere with the operation of the dryer. This part plays an important role in preventing wires from becoming tangled, pinched, or damaged during the dryer’s cycles.

Over time, the wire tie can become worn out, broken, or damaged due to prolonged exposure to heat, vibrations, or wear from normal use. A compromised wire tie can lead to loose or unsecured wiring, which may impact the performance of the dryer or cause electrical issues.

Symptoms of a bad Dryer Wire Tie include:

• Loose or unsecured internal wiring
• Interference with dryer components during operation
• Electrical malfunctions or short circuits
• Wires appearing frayed or damaged due to improper support

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