The Direct Drive Washer Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines This motor drives the agitation, spinning, and draining processes during the laundry cycles, ensuring clothes come out clean and well spun. 

Causes of a bad Direct Drive Washer Motor can range from wear and tear over time, overheating due to overloading or obstructed movement, and electrical failures like short circuits or blown capacitors. 

Symptoms of a failing Direct Drive Washer Motor include:

• The washing machine not agitating or spinning correctly
• A noticeable decline in the washer's performance
• Unusual noises, such as humming or buzzing, indicating the motor is struggling

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

A cam sleeve that supports and guides the cam on its shaft to keep the cam-driven mechanism moving smoothly. Replacing a worn sleeve helps restore correct alignment and reduces binding or intermittent movement. What it does

• Centers and stabilizes the cam on its shaft for reliable engagement.
• Prevents metal-on-metal wear between the cam and shaft.
• Helps eliminate binding, wobble, or uneven operation caused by a worn sleeve.
• Common symptom of failure: noise, sticking, or irregular movement from the cam-driven mechanism.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair.
• Access typically requires removing the appropriate service panel; follow the model service manual.
• Inspect mating cam and shaft for wear; replace any damaged components.
• Reassemble panels and verify proper operation before returning the appliance to service.

A replacement thrust bearing that supports the washer transmission shaft to reduce axial wear and help the gearbox rotate more smoothly. Use this bearing to address noisy transmission operation and reduce metal-on-metal wear when the original is worn. What it does:

• Supports axial load on the transmission/gearcase shaft to reduce friction and wear
• Helps prevent grinding, scraping, or other metal-on-metal noises from the gearbox
• Can reduce rough or noisy spin and improve agitation when a worn bearing is the cause
• Helps maintain proper alignment of transmission components for smoother operation

• Disconnect power and water supply and drain the washer before beginning any work.
• Replacement requires accessing the agitator/gearcase per the OEM service manual and may involve transmission/gearcase disassembly.
• Inspect nearby seals, fasteners and other bearings while servicing; replace damaged parts to avoid premature failure.

Bottle with brush. Color: Platinum. Size: 0.6 fl.oz.

A replacement mounting screw to secure appliance panels and components so parts stay properly fastened during normal use. Small but essential hardware for stable, rattle-free operation and reliable repairs. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets or components to the appliance chassis
• Prevents loose panels, vibration noise, or parts shifting during operation
• Used when original screw is lost, damaged, or stripped
• Restores proper fit and alignment after disassembly for service

• Disconnect power and water before starting any repair
• Use the correct screw type and length; do not force or substitute oversized fasteners
• Tighten until snug—avoid overtightening to prevent stripped threads or cracked parts
• Keep small parts away from children and pets

This exhaust vent extension provides extra duct length to move dryer or hood exhaust farther from the appliance, improving airflow routing and helping reduce backpressure and lint buildup in short-vent installations. What it does:

• Extends the length of an existing exhaust duct to reach a distant vent outlet
• Helps restore proper ventilation when original ducting is too short
• Reduces restricted airflow that can cause longer dry times or excess lint accumulation
• Works as an inline rigid/semirigid extension piece for exhaust systems

• Disconnect power (and gas for gas dryers) before accessing or modifying exhaust connections
• Remove lint and debris from ducting before installing the extension to ensure clear airflow
• Securely fasten with appropriate clamps or foil tape and maintain a smooth, unobstructed path
