Whirlpool Washer Drive Belt

By: Whirlpool

Part Number: WPW10006384

Restores spin and agitation when the belt is worn, glazed, or broken
Can reduce squeal or burning-rubber smells from belt slip
Helps prevent intermittent or no-spin conditions

What’s included
One drive belt.

Install notes

Unplug power; turn off water
Tip the washer back; remove the bottom shield/cover if present
Route the belt over the motor and drive pulleys; rotate by hand to seat fully
Inspect pulleys/drive parts for wear; run a spin or calibration test after install

Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You Whirlpool Cabrio washer made a loud noise during the spin cycles it also was very noisy while washing Ralph N. • Spring , TX • October 25, 2018

This was my first attempt, ever, to repair a washing machine. After some internet research on the problems, I was able to determine that the shaft seal on the gearcase probably was leaking water into the gearcase with each use. No water was ever found on the floor, but when I turned the washer over to inspect the gearcase, I found a black, oily residue on the outside of it along with the same residue on the pulleys, the belt and the motor. I ordered a new gearcase, shift actuator, splutch... Read more

Unplug the washing machine and shut off the cold and hot water valves before moving the washer forward. Remove the back panel by taking out the screws and lifting the panel away. Take the old belt off of the pulleys and install the new belt. Make sure to reassemble the washer and turn on the power and water before use.This part is designed to be used with washing machines manufactured by Maytag and Whirlpool. It is sold as an individual item. The drive belt is an authentic OEM replacement component that is directly sourced from the manufacturer.

Tub bearing failure, basically the whole machine has to be taken a part. I've used appliancepartspros in the past so I came back. Quick shipping, parts ordered Thursday night and got here Monday.

Very difficult fix even though I had done it once before about 15 years ago. Problem for me was getting the transmission down far enough to get clearance to install the belt. Model LA780P from the mid 80s. It started leaking transmission fluid and that worried and hurried me. I bought a newer washer but went back to this older style because they are repairable. New ones are disposable and I like the old porcelin. The only two parts that ever break are the belt and the pump, the pump being... Read more
