Description

This gearcase is the transmission assembly that drives the washer agitator and drum, restoring normal agitation and spin when the original unit wears out. It provides the mechanical reduction and torque transfer needed for load motion. What it does:

• Transfers motor rotation into the low-speed/high-torque motion required for agitation and tumbling
• Replaces worn or damaged gears that can cause grinding, clunking, or loss of agitation/spin
• Stops or reduces slipping and intermittent drive failures caused by internal gear wear
• Helps restore proper wash cycles when the washer fails to agitate or complete spin cycles

What's included: One gearcase assembly. Install notes:

• Disconnect power and water supply before beginning repairs; drain the washer tub per manufacturer instructions
• Installation typically requires removing the washer cabinet and drive components; follow OEM service manual steps
• Inspect related seals, gaskets, and fasteners and replace if damaged; lubricate per OEM guidance
