Description

This gearcase is the drive transmission that transfers motor power to the washer agitator and basket, restoring normal agitation and spin performance. It replaces a worn or damaged transmission assembly to help the washer move and clean properly. What it does:

• Transfers motor torque to the agitator and tub so the washer can agitate and spin
• Restores normal agitation or spinning when the transmission is worn or stripped
• Stops slipping, grinding, or inconsistent motion caused by damaged gears
• Works with the motor coupling and drive components to maintain correct drive alignment

What's included:

• One gearcase (transmission) assembly

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before starting any repair
• Access may require removing the cabinet, drive belt, and motor—follow OEM service instructions
• Inspect adjacent parts (motor coupling, seals, fasteners) and replace any worn components
