Description

This gearcase is the washer's agitator gearbox that transfers motor torque to the agitator so the tub can rotate and clean clothes effectively. Replacing a worn gearcase restores proper agitation and helps the washer move loads as designed. What it does:

• Converts motor output into the rotational motion needed to drive the agitator
• Maintains correct gear engagement for normal wash cycles
• Worn or damaged gear teeth can cause slipping, grinding, or loss of agitation
• Failing gearcases commonly produce loud grinding, clunking, or irregular agitation
• Restoring the gearcase can stop agitation-related symptoms and improve cleaning

What's included:

• One gearcase assembly (single unit as shown)

Install notes:

• Disconnect electrical power (unplug or switch off breaker) before beginning repairs
• Turn off water supply and remove any panels or agitator components
• Replacement may require basic hand tools and removal of the agitator/washplate; follow OEM disassembly steps
