Description

This clutch spring cap retains and protects the clutch spring in your washer's drive/clutch assembly, maintaining proper tension. Replacing a worn or missing cap helps the clutch engage smoothly and reduces slipping and noise during spin.

• Secures the clutch spring within the clutch assembly to prevent movement or dislodging
• Maintains correct spring preload for consistent clutch engagement
• Can help reduce clutch slip that appears as weak/no spin, slow spin ramp-up, or intermittent spinning
• Common signs of trouble: rattling or scraping near the drive, burning smell, or a visibly damaged/missing cap

What's included: 1 clutch spring cap Install notes:

• Unplug the appliance and shut off water before servicing
• Access the clutch per your model's service procedure; removing the gearcase/transmission and clutch may be required
• Carefully relieve spring tension and note the orientation of the spring and cap before removal
• Inspect the spring, clutch lining, and related hardware; replace any worn components during reassembly
