Kt265xww Parts

This planetary gear assembly transfers motor motion to the washer's transmission so the tub or agitator moves correctly. Replacing a worn planetary restores proper agitation and helps stop grinding or intermittent motion. What it does

• Converts motor output into the rotational motion needed for the transmission or agitator.
• Restores smooth, reliable wash action when the original gears are worn or damaged.
• Commonly used when you hear grinding, clunking, or the washer fails to agitate or spin consistently.
• Works as an internal drive component that mates with the transmission and related drive parts.

• Disconnect power and water before beginning any repairs.
• Accessing this part often requires removing the cabinet, drive components, or transmission housing.
• Inspect surrounding seals, bearings, and fasteners; replace any damaged parts to prevent repeat failure.
• Test operation through a full cycle after installation to confirm correct function and no leaks.
