Parts for Ge GUD24ESSM1WW: Tub & Basket Assembly Parts

The Kit Tub 24 Hub Nut Washers & Agitator is an OEM set of components specifically designed for GE top-load washing machines. It includes vital agitator and suspension assembly items.

Located inside the washing machine tub, these parts work together to enable smooth oscillations during each wash cycle. The agitator transfers rotational force into controlled linear movements while properly guiding clothing through machine-pressurized water. 

Causes of bad kit items relate to wear from repeated use, inadvertent impacts from large loads, or normal aging of plastic materials over 10+ years.

Symptoms include: 

• Excessive tub vibration or noise during agitation  
• Loose or wobbly agitator movement inside the tub
• Premature bearing or suspension wear evident

  
Replacing with this authentic GE OEM kit restores optimized agitation for thorough cleaning results. Compatibility includes select Hotpoint, RCA, or Kenmore top-load washer models as well.
 

The Basket Kit is an OEM part for GE washing machines. It includes the inner wash basket, which holds the clothes during the wash and spin cycles. This basket is designed to withstand the rigors of heavy loads and constant use, ensuring efficient and effective cleaning while maintaining the integrity of the clothes being washed.

Causes of a bad Basket Kit can include prolonged exposure to harsh detergents, physical damage from overloading or sharp objects, and general wear and tear from frequent use. 

Symptoms of a bad Basket Kit include:

• Unusual noises during the wash or spin cycles, such as banging or rattling
• Visible cracks, breaks, or rust spots on the basket
• Clothes coming out torn or snagged after washing
• The washer not spinning or draining properly due to basket issues

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This washer agitator and bolt kit replaces the central agitator and secures it to the drive shaft, restoring proper wash action so clothes roll and turn over through the water for consistent, effective cleaning.

• Produces the back-and-forth motion that moves laundry for turnover and soil removal
• Secures the agitator to the drive shaft with the included mounting bolt
• Common symptoms: no or weak agitation, poor cleaning results, agitator loose or free-spinning, clicking during wash
• Addresses worn or stripped agitator splines or a missing/loose mounting bolt

• Disconnect power and turn off water; wear gloves for protection
• Remove the dispenser and cap to access the agitator bolt
• Lift off the old agitator; align the new agitator on the shaft and start the bolt by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten the bolt securely, reinstall caps, and run a quick test cycle to confirm proper agitation

This agitator screw secures the washer's agitator to the drive hub/shaft. Replace a missing, stripped, or rusted screw to restore a tight, stable agitator and proper wash action while helping prevent wobble and rattling during cycles.

• Fastens the agitator to the drive hub/shaft
• Keeps the agitator from lifting or wobbling
• Helps maintain consistent agitation and wash performance
• Typical symptoms: loose or wobbly agitator, rattling/clicking during agitation, reduced cleaning results

• Disconnect power before servicing the washer
• Remove the agitator cap or fabric softener dispenser to access the screw
• Use an appropriate driver or socket; avoid cross-threading and overtightening
• Ensure the agitator is fully seated before tightening; reinstall the cap/dispenser

This fabric softener dispenser cap funnel sits in the dispenser cup and channels softener into the tub during the rinse cycle. Replacing a cracked, warped, or missing cap helps restore proper dispensing and reduce messy leaks or splashing.

• Directs fabric softener from the dispenser into the wash during the rinse cycle
• Helps prevent splashing and residue buildup around the dispenser
• Typical failure signs: softener not dispensing, softener left in the cup, leaks from dispenser area, loose or missing cap
• Visual damage (cracks, deformation) to the cap/funnel

• Unplug the washer before servicing
• Lift off and remove the old cap/funnel from the dispenser cup; some models require a gentle twist to release
• Clean the dispenser cup of residue before installing the new part
• Press the new cap/funnel firmly into place and run a rinse cycle to verify dispensing

The Tub Cover is an OEM component for GE front-load washing machines. It provides a protective barrier around the inner tub and mechanism while blending into the washer design.

Causes of a faulty tub cover can include cracking, bending, or warping from repeated use over several years. Excessive exposure to moisture or impacts can accelerate damage. 

Symptoms of a bad tub cover include:

• Water leaks inside or outside the washer during operation
• Unsecure door closure or door alignment issues
• Visible dents, cracks or punctures in the plastic material

This tub cover replacement is also compatible with models by Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore brands.

This cup funnel sits inside the fabric softener dispenser and channels softener into the wash basket during the rinse. Replacing a damaged or missing funnel helps stop leaks and ensures the softener empties as designed.

• Directs fabric softener from the dispenser cup into the washer tub during the rinse cycle
• Helps prevent spills and residue around the dispenser area
• Restores proper flow through the softener cup for consistent dispensing
• Common signs of failure: softener remains in the cup, slow or no dispensing, overflow/leaks, or a cracked/missing funnel

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before servicing
• Remove the fabric softener dispenser cap/cup per your model's instructions
• Lift out the old funnel; clean the seat, then fully press the new funnel into place, aligning any tabs
• Reinstall the dispenser components and run a rinse cycle to flow

A small retaining nut that secures a dryer pulley in place to keep the idler or drum pulley mounted and stable. Replacing a worn or missing nut restores proper pulley alignment and helps the dryer run quietly and reliably. What it does:

• Secures the pulley to its shaft so the belt tracks correctly
• Prevents pulley wobble that can cause rubbing, squeaks or belt mis-tracking
• Helps stop excessive vibration during tumbling
• Supports normal drum rotation for even drying

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical shock
• Requires basic hand tools (socket or nut driver) and access to the dryer cabinet
• Hold the pulley/shaft steady while tightening; do not overtighten to avoid stripping threads
• Replace those parts as well for reliable operation

The Hardware Kit is an OEM part for GE laundry centers. It contains various mounting screws, brackets, and retainers needed to securely attach internal parts like panels and components.  

GE laundry centers consolidate washer and dryer functions into one large machine. As an appliance containing multiple moveable metal assemblies, it relies on hardware to maintain structure during vigorous laundry cycles. Vibrations can cause interior connectors to rattle loose without reinforcement.

Causes of insufficient hardware include stripped screws with reduced grip, broken supports no longer performing as designed, or lost clips leaving certain areas unstable.  

Symptoms of bad or missing hardware include:

• Loose, rattling, or detached internal components
• Exposed connections between washer and dryer functions
• Reduced integrity in particular sections of the unit

Replacing with the OEM GE kit restores the factory-installed reinforcement. Compatible with some Kenmore combo units containing GE mechanisms.

The Rod Assembly is an OEM part for GE washing machines. It consists of the shaft and drive rod that connects the motor to the tub's agitator or impeller. As such, it plays an integral role in facilitating the transmission of power from the motor to drive the agitation and washing action.

Causes of a bad rod assembly can include cracks, bends, or breaks from stress and fatigue due to extensive use over time.  

Symptoms of a bad rod assembly include: 

• No agitation or spinning despite the motor running 
• Excessive vibration and noise from the tub area
• Disconnected or slipping components between the motor and tub

This OEM GE replacement rod assembly is also compatible with some Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore models.

Symptoms of a bad upper ball joint include:

• Excessive noise or squeaking coming from the center post area
• Hampered or sluggish movement of the outer tub during washing  
• Leaks developing around the center post
