The Motor-Drive is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It converts electrical energy into rotational motion to power the wash cycle. The motor transmits torque to the inner wash basket or tub through the drive system to clean clothes through agitation and spinning actions. Issues with the motor-drive can negatively impact the entire functionality of the washer.

Causes of failure can be wear and tear over time, damage from oversudsing or unbalanced loads, or exposure to moisture. Ensure your washer keeps running at its best with this OEM Whirlpool replacement part.

Symptoms of a bad Motor-Drive include:

• The washer failing to start or stopping mid-cycle
• Excessive noise or vibration coming from the motor area
• Slow or inefficient spinning
• Inability to advance through cycles

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