The Ball Bearing is an OEM part for LG washing machines. It is designed to support the drum's rotation within the washer, ensuring smooth and quiet operation during the wash and spin cycles. This ball bearing helps reduce friction and wear, contributing to the overall efficiency and longevity of the appliance.

Causes of a bad Ball Bearing can include excessive wear due to heavy use, exposure to water or detergent leading to rust or corrosion, or damage from an unbalanced load. Over time, the bearing can degrade, leading to operational issues and increased noise.

Symptoms of a bad Ball Bearing include:

• Loud, unusual noises during the spin cycle
•  The drum not rotating smoothly
• Excessive vibration or shaking
• Leaking from the drum area

This OEM LG part is also compatible with select Sears/Kenmore models.

The Shipping Bolt is an OEM part for LG washing machines, designed to secure the washing machine's drum during transportation. These bolts are important for preventing damage to the drum and suspension system by immobilizing the drum, thereby avoiding any excessive movement or vibrations that could occur while moving the appliance. 

Causes of a bad shipping bolt can include improper removal during installation, damage from handling, or degradation over time if it was left in place during operation. A damaged or missing shipping bolt can lead to issues with the washing machine's drum alignment and overall stability.

Symptoms that indicate the shipping bolts need removal or installation include:

• Excessive noise or vibrations during operation, suggesting the bolts were not removed after installation.
• Damage to the washing machine's drum or suspension system after moving the appliance without the bolts properly installed.

This OEM LG part can also be used on Kenmore/Sears appliances.

After removal, bag and tape the bolts to the cabinet so they’re on hand for the next move.

The Air Chamber is an OEM part for LG washing machines. This part connects to the pressure switch and ensures the washer machine fills with the correct amount of water for the selected cycle. 

Causes of a bad  Air Chamber can include clogging due to detergent residue or debris, cracks or perforations that lead to air leaks, and aging of the material, which might compromise its integrity and function.

Symptoms of a faulty Air Chamber include:

• Inaccurate water level readings leading to overfilling or insufficient water during cycles
• Unusual noises during the fill cycle, indicating air escaping
• The washing machine failing to start the wash cycle due to improper water level detection
• Error codes displayed on the machine that relate to water level issues

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.
