This planetary gear assembly transfers motor motion to the appliance's rotating components, restoring reliable rotation and reducing abnormal noise. It's the direct replacement gear used in the appliance's drivetrain to help resume normal operation. What it does:

• Transfers motor torque to the agitator/drum or rotating hub for proper rotation
• Restores smooth, consistent movement and can stop slipping or reduced rotation
• Replaces worn or damaged gears that cause grinding, clunking, or unusual noise
• Helps prevent further wear to connected drive components when replaced promptly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Requires partial disassembly of the washer/dryer/motor housing; refer to the service manual or diagram for access steps.
• Inspect surrounding components (seals, bearings, fasteners) for wear during replacement.

This planetary gear assembly transfers motor torque through the drive system to enable the washer's agitation and/or spin functions. Replacing a worn planetary restores reliable rotation and reduces noise caused by damaged gears. What it does:

• Drives the washer's agitator/drum by transferring motor power through the gear train
• Restores normal agitation and spinning when worn gears cause slipping or no movement
• Stops or reduces grinding, knocking, or unusual gear noise originating from the gearbox
• Works as the internal gearset inside the transmission/gearcase to maintain proper drivetrain operation

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Access typically requires removing the washer cabinet or transmission cover; follow OEM service instructions
• Support the drum/transmission and use appropriate tools to avoid further damage
