The 1/3 HP Motor & Nut is an OEM parts compatible with GE washers. This motor powers the oscillating and spinning movements required to effectively clean clothes. 

The durable axial cam motor drives the rotation of the transmission via an integrated mounting nut. During the agitation cycle, precisely oscillates the drum back and forth to thoroughly mix clothes and wash fluid. For extraction, it rapidly spins the drum up to 400+ RPMs to remove excess water through centrifugal force. 

Symptoms of a bad motor can include:

• No rotation or agitation of the wash basket  
• Failure to spin or achieve proper speeds
• Electrical burning smells coming from the motor
• Grinding and knocking noises when running

This replacement part also fits Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore appliances.

A replacement lid lock striker for top-load washers that engages the lid lock assembly so the washer lid stays securely closed during cycles. Restores safe lid latching and reliable cycle operation when the striker is worn or damaged. What it does:

• Prevents the lid from popping open mid-cycle and related cycle-interruption symptoms.
• Helps maintain proper lid alignment to reduce rattling and uneven lid movement.
• Commonly replaced when the lid won't latch, the washer won't start, or the lid rubs against the cabinet.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting any service.
• Access and replacement typically require removing or opening the washer top or access panel; use basic hand tools.
• Align the striker with the lid lock mechanism and secure fasteners snugly; verify smooth engagement before final reassembly.
• If the mating lid lock assembly is damaged or worn, replace the lock and striker as needed for reliable operation.

The Main Knob is an OEM part for GE washers. It is the central control knob located at the top of the washer control panel that is used to power on the washer, select wash cycles, set temps, and choose options.

Symptoms of a bad Main Knob include:  

• Difficulty turning or selecting options
• Knob slipping or "clicking" instead of turning smoothly  
• LED/control panel not responding properly to knob movements
• Inability to select desired cycles

Causes can be regular wear and tear over time, inadvertent impacts that damage the internal components, or failures in the electronic switch mechanisms located within the knob. As the main interface point for the washer controls, this knob needs to operate flawlessly.

It is also compatible with some Kenmore and other brands that use GE controls.

A small mounting support that provides a stable anchor point for screws used to secure panels or internal assemblies. Replacing a damaged screw platform restores proper fastener engagement and reduces panel movement and vibration. What it does:

• Anchors screws to hold trim, panels or internal components in place
• Restores secure attachment when the original mounting point is cracked or worn
• Helps eliminate rattling, loose panels, or alignment issues caused by a failed mounting surface

• Note/photograph original routing and connector locations; move any clips/retainers to the new harness
• Seat connectors fully on the valve solenoids; do not force—align keys to avoid pin damage
• Inspect valve coils and connector pins for heat damage or corrosion and address as needed

The Clamp is an OEM part for GE washers. It is used to securely fasten critical components like hoses, sensors, and wiring harnesses in place inside the washer cabinet. 

As a machine that handles water, chemicals, and moving parts, a washer requires many clamps to organize its internal systems. They ensure hoses and electrical wiring remain properly positioned and protected throughout years of operation. Without solid clamps, connections could loosen or detach, leading to leaks or electrical faults.

Causes of a bad clamp can include fatigue from constant vibration, outright breakage from impact or tension overload, or rust/corrosion damage over extended use. 

Symptoms of a failed clamp include:

• Loose, disconnected or damaged hoses and wiring  
• Water leaks from hose connections
• Electrical or sensor errors

The clamp is also compatible with some Kenmore and other brands that use GE components.
