Description

This front counterweight mounts to the washer's outer tub to stabilize the drum assembly during spin. Replacing a cracked or loose weight helps curb excessive vibration, banging, and walking, restoring smoother, quieter operation.

• Adds mass at the front of the outer tub to help balance loads during spin
• Controls vibration and noise; reduces walking and off-balance interruptions
• Typical failure signs: cracked or broken weight, missing chunks, loose/rattling mount, loud knocking, severe shaking
• Visible damage to the weight or mounting area can indicate replacement is needed

What's included: One front counterweight Install notes:

• Unplug the washer and turn off water supply; wear gloves. The weight is heavy—use a second person if needed
• Support the tub and access the front of the outer tub; remove the original weight carefully to avoid damage
• Transfer and reuse any mounting hardware from the original part if needed; seat the new weight flush and tighten bolts evenly
• Run an empty test spin; inspect shocks/suspension and leveling
