White Westinghouse Washer Power Nut Or Trunnion
Genuine Frigidaire part
By: Frigidaire
Part Number: 131545101
The trunnion is the hub that mounts the washer's inner tub to the drive shaft. Replacing a worn hub restores a solid, centered connection so the basket spins smoothly without wobble, slip, or grinding. What it does:
- Secures and centers the spin basket on the drive shaft for balanced rotation
- Transfers drive torque to the inner tub during spin
- Helps maintain basket alignment to reduce vibration
- Typical symptoms of failure: loose/wobbly tub, scraping or grinding noises, poor or no spin, frequent out-of-balance events
What's included:
Install notes:
- Disconnect power and water before service; wear gloves and eye protection
- Access the hub by removing top/access parts, then the agitator/wash plate and inner-tub fasteners
- Clean the shaft and mating surfaces; seat the new trunnion fully and tighten fasteners evenly in a crisscross pattern
- Inspect related parts (tub seal, bolts, bearing) while open and replace if worn; run a short test cycle to ensure smooth spin
