4 Pack - XPARTCO 8182703 Washer Shock Absorber Replaces WP8182703
The XPARTCO 8182703 is an aftermarket replacement front-load washer shock absorber compatible with select Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Amana, Jenn-Air, Admiral, and Roper front-load washers in the GHW, WFW, MHWE, MFW, and KHWS series. The shock absorber is a hydraulic dampener that connects the outer washer tub to the base frame. During the spin cycle, the shock absorbers absorb and dampen the vibrations and movement generated by the spinning drum — keeping the washer stable, quiet, and protecting internal components from damage caused by excessive movement.
Most compatible Whirlpool-family front-load washers use four shock absorbers — two at the front and two at the rear. When one or more shock absorbers wear out, the outer tub vibrates excessively, causing loud banging or thumping during the spin cycle. It is strongly recommended to replace all four shock absorbers at the same time. This listing is for a single shock absorber. It directly replaces WP8182703, 8181646, 1173231, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 8182703 Washer Shock Absorber fixes front-load washers that shake violently, bang loudly, or walk across the floor during the spin cycle. The shock absorber dampens tub vibration. Most models use 4 shock absorbers — replace all 4 at the same time. Sold individually. Compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Amana, Jenn-Air, Admiral, and Roper front-load washers. Replaces WP8182703, 8181646, AP6011831, and more.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Unplug the washer and turn off the water supply before beginning. To access the front shock absorbers, remove the lower front access panel. To access the rear shock absorbers, pull the washer away from the wall, disconnect the water hoses, and remove the rear panel. The shock absorbers connect the outer tub to the base frame with mounting pins at the top and bottom — turn the shock absorber 90 degrees at both pins to release and remove it. Install the new 8182703 shock absorber by inserting the pins into the top and bottom mounting brackets and rotating 90 degrees to lock in place. Replace all 4 shock absorbers during the same repair. Reconnect all panels and water hoses, plug in the washer, restore water supply, and run a spin cycle to verify normal operation. Work gloves are recommended as there are sharp edges inside the cabinet. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, channel-lock pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the washer shock absorber do?
The shock absorbers are hydraulic dampeners that connect the outer washer tub to the base frame of the machine. During the spin cycle — when the drum spins at high speeds — the shock absorbers absorb and dampen the vibrations and movement of the heavy outer tub, keeping it centered and preventing it from striking the sides of the washer cabinet. Without functioning shock absorbers, the washer vibrates violently, makes loud banging noises, and can "walk" across the floor during spin, potentially damaging internal components over time.
How many shock absorbers does my front-load washer have?
Most Whirlpool-family front-load washers compatible with the 8182703 shock absorber use four shock absorbers — two mounted at the front of the tub and two at the rear. This listing is for a single shock absorber. When replacing shock absorbers, it is strongly recommended to replace all four at once, as they all experience the same amount of use and the remaining absorbers are likely to fail soon after the first one.
What is the difference between 8182703 and WP8182703?
These are the same shock absorber. WP8182703 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original 8182703. The 8181646 is also a cross-reference to this same part. This aftermarket replacement is compatible with all three numbers.
My washer still vibrates after replacing the shock absorbers — what else could it be?
If vibration persists after replacing all four shock absorbers, other possible causes include an unbalanced or overloaded drum, worn drum bearings, a failing suspension spring, or the washer not being level on the floor. Check that the washer's leveling feet are adjusted so all four corners are in firm contact with the floor. Also confirm the load is not oversized — overloading is the most common cause of spin vibration and can prematurely wear shock absorbers.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured from high-quality reinforced materials to match the dimensions and performance of the original WP8182703 shock absorber.

XPARTCO DC97-16350V Washer Suspension Rod Kit (Set of 4)
The XPARTCO DC97-16350V is an aftermarket replacement washer suspension rod kit (set of 4) compatible with select Samsung top-load washers in the WA48, WA50, WA52, and WA54 series. The suspension rods are spring-loaded shock-absorbing rods that connect the outer tub to the top of the washer cabinet, suspending the tub and dampening the vibrations generated during agitation and high-speed spin cycles. All four rods work together to keep the tub centered and stable — when one or more rods weaken, break, or lose their spring tension, the tub swings off-center and strikes the cabinet walls, causing violent shaking, banging, error code dc (out of balance), UE imbalance errors, and progressive damage to the washer cabinet and internal components.
Each rod is 27.5 inches in overall length and is constructed from spring steel with a plastic top cap and bottom cup that clip into the tub and cabinet mounting points. The kit includes all 4 suspension rods — always replace all four at the same time since the rods wear at the same rate. Installs in 20–30 minutes — no special tools required. Note: rods are coated with grease — wear gloves during installation.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting — Wear Gloves Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves throughout — the suspension rods are coated with grease. Remove the lid of the washer and the top panel (typically secured by screws under the lid hinge covers and at the rear corners). With the top panel removed, the four suspension rods are visible, each running from a mounting point on the tub rim up to a hook or bracket at the top corners of the cabinet frame. Note the orientation and attachment method of each rod before removing. Unhook the top of the old rod from the cabinet bracket and lift the bottom cup off the tub mounting pin. Install each new DC97-16350V rod by seating the bottom cup onto the tub mounting pin and hooking the top over the cabinet bracket. Replace all four rods before reassembling. Reinstall the top panel and lid, restore power and water, then run a spin cycle to verify smooth, stable operation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver; no special tools required for the rods themselves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do the suspension rods do?
The suspension rods are spring-loaded shock absorbers that hang the outer washer tub from the top corners of the cabinet frame. They suspend the tub in the center of the cabinet and absorb the vibrations and movement generated during agitation and high-speed spin cycles. As long as all four rods have equal spring tension, the tub stays centered and stable. When one or more rods lose tension, stretch, or break, the tub is no longer held evenly and begins to swing off-center during spin — striking the cabinet walls, causing the loud banging, vibration, and imbalance error codes that indicate the rods need replacement.
Why must I replace all 4 rods instead of just the broken one?
All four suspension rods experience the same amount of wear over the same number of wash cycles. When one rod fails, the remaining three have experienced the same stress and fatigue and are likely to fail soon after. Replacing only the broken rod leaves three worn rods supporting the tub unevenly, which can cause the new rod to wear faster and may not fully resolve the vibration problem. Replacing all four at the same time ensures even tub support, fully resolves the imbalance, and prevents a repeat repair in the near future.
What do error codes dc and UE mean on Samsung washers?
On Samsung top-load washers, error code dc (or sometimes dC) means the washer has detected an out-of-balance condition during the spin cycle and has stopped to prevent damage. Error code UE means an unbalanced load that the machine cannot automatically correct by redistributing. Both codes can be caused by an actual overloaded or unevenly distributed laundry load — but if the errors occur frequently even with normal loads and proper load distribution, worn or broken suspension rods are the most common mechanical cause. Replacing the rod kit resolves these errors in most cases.
How is the DC97-16350V different from DC97-16350U or DC97-16350S?
The DC97-16350V, DC97-16350U, and DC97-16350S are all Samsung suspension rods, but they have different lengths for different washer model generations and capacities. The DC97-16350V is 27.5 inches long and is used on larger-capacity WA48–WA54 series Samsung washers. The DC97-16350U is approximately 26.4 inches and is used on mid-capacity WA45–WA50 series models. The DC97-16350S and DC97-16350C are shorter versions for earlier or smaller-capacity models. Using the wrong length rod can cause the tub to sit at the incorrect height inside the cabinet. Always verify your model number before ordering to confirm the correct rod length.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement kit built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured from spring steel with plastic end caps to match the length and spring tension of the original DC97-16350V suspension rods.

XPARTCO W10613606 Refrigerator Compressor Start Relay and Capacitor
The XPARTCO W10613606 is an aftermarket replacement compressor start relay and capacitor assembly compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Jenn-Air, Admiral, Crosley, Dacor, Hardwick, Inglis, Litton, and Magic Chef refrigerators. The start relay is a small but critical electrical component that plugs directly onto the compressor terminals and provides the initial power surge needed to start the compressor motor. Once the compressor reaches operating speed, the relay drops out — leaving the compressor to run on its own. The capacitor (rated 15µF ±5%, 250VAC) works alongside the relay to store and release the burst of electrical energy needed on startup.
When the start relay fails, the compressor cannot start — causing the refrigerator to stop cooling entirely. A failed relay typically produces a clicking sound every few minutes as the compressor tries and fails to start, followed by a short rest, then another attempt. This kit includes both the start relay and the CBB61 capacitor. It directly replaces W10416065, 8208290, 8208368, C8931605, 67003186, 67005560, 67005561, 67005562, 67003764, 8171210, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Installs in under 15 minutes — no tools required in most cases.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting Unplug the refrigerator from the power outlet before beginning. Move the refrigerator away from the wall to access the rear or lower back panel. Remove the rear access panel by unscrewing the retaining screws to expose the compressor. The compressor is a large black dome-shaped component — the start relay and capacitor assembly plugs onto the side terminals. Grip the old relay firmly and pull it straight off the compressor pins. Shake it — if it rattles, the internal contacts have failed and replacement is confirmed. Compare the old relay to the new W10613606 to confirm the terminal layout matches. Align the new relay with the compressor pins and press it firmly on. Reinstall the access panel, restore power, and listen for the compressor to start and run normally within a few minutes. Note: Some models may require trimming the wire connector tabs or reversing the connector orientation for a proper fit — do not force the connection. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver (for panel access only).
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the compressor start relay do?
The start relay plugs onto the compressor terminals and provides the brief but powerful surge of electrical current needed to start the compressor motor from a standstill. Once the compressor reaches operating speed — usually within a second or two — the relay drops out and the compressor runs on its own. Without a working start relay, the compressor cannot start at all, and the refrigerator stops cooling. The capacitor works alongside the relay to store and deliver the extra energy needed on startup.
How do I know if my start relay has failed?
The most reliable quick test is the rattle test: unplug the refrigerator, pull the start relay off the compressor, and shake it near your ear. A working relay is silent. A failed relay will rattle — the internal contacts have broken free and are loose inside the casing. Another sign is a repeated clicking sound every 2–5 minutes from the back of the refrigerator, where the compressor attempts to start, fails, trips the overload protector, rests, and tries again. If the fridge is warm and you hear clicking, check the relay first.
What is the difference between the start relay and the capacitor?
The start relay is the switching device that connects and disconnects the start winding of the compressor motor during startup. The capacitor stores a charge and releases it during startup to give the motor the additional torque it needs to get moving under load. Together they work as a startup system for the compressor. This kit includes both — replacing both at the same time ensures the complete startup circuit is fresh and reliable.
My fridge is still not cooling after replacing the start relay — what else could it be?
If replacing the start relay does not restore cooling, other possible causes include a failed compressor (the compressor runs but no longer builds pressure), a refrigerant leak in the sealed system, a failed start capacitor (if not replaced along with the relay), a bad overload protector, or a faulty main control board. Listen carefully after installing the new relay — if the compressor now starts and runs but the fridge still doesn't cool after several hours, a sealed system issue or refrigerant problem is likely and will require a certified technician.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications and terminal configuration of the original W10613606 start relay and capacitor assembly.

XPARTCO 3406105 Dryer Door Switch Replaces WP3406105
The XPARTCO 3406105 is an aftermarket replacement dryer door switch assembly compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool-family dryers including Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Roper, Estate, Crosley, Inglis, Admiral, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, and Norge. The door switch is a safety component mounted inside the dryer cabinet near the door opening. When the door is closed, the door strike depresses the switch actuator, completing the circuit and allowing the dryer to start and run. When the door is opened, the switch opens the circuit and stops the dryer. On models with a broken belt detection circuit, the door switch also plays a role in belt failure detection. A failed door switch causes the dryer to either not start at all or to run continuously with the door open.
This is a Single Pole, Double Throw (SPDT) 3-wire switch with stainless steel terminals and a heat-resistant housing. It measures 1-3/4" L x 1-5/8" W x 1-1/4" H with a 7-3/4" wiring harness. Electrical specs are 120-240V, 50-60Hz, 11A, 1/3HP. The kit includes the switch and 3-wire harness assembly. It directly replaces WP3406105, 3406104, 3405104, 3405105, 528947, AP6008560, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Installs in 15–30 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. The door switch is located inside the dryer cabinet near the door opening, typically mounted in the front panel or top panel. Access it by inserting a putty knife under the top panel to release the spring clips and lift the top, then release the front panel. Locate the old door switch — it is a small rectangular component with a spring-loaded actuator button. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting. Disconnect the 3-wire harness from the old switch. Release the switch from its mounting bracket by pressing the retaining tabs and pulling the switch free, or unscrewing the mounting screw. Snap the new 3406105 switch into the mounting bracket and reconnect the 3-wire harness in the same positions. Reassemble the front and top panels, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm the dryer starts, stops when the door is opened, and runs normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the dryer door switch do?
The door switch is a safety component that monitors whether the dryer door is open or closed. When the door is closed, the door strike depresses the switch actuator, completing the electrical circuit and signaling the control board that it is safe to run. When the door is opened, the actuator releases, opening the circuit and stopping the dryer immediately. On many Whirlpool-family dryers, the 3-wire SPDT switch also provides a secondary circuit used for broken belt detection — one of the switch's contacts is part of the motor start circuit, while the other is part of a safety cutoff circuit.
How do I test the door switch with a multimeter?
Unplug the dryer and disconnect the switch from the harness. Set your multimeter to continuity mode. The 3406105 is an SPDT switch with three terminals — typically labeled Common (C), Normally Open (NO), and Normally Closed (NC). With the actuator button not pressed (door open position), you should read continuity between C and NC, and no continuity between C and NO. With the actuator button pressed (door closed position), you should read continuity between C and NO, and no continuity between C and NC. Any deviation from this pattern confirms the switch has failed.
What is the difference between 3406105 and 3406104?
The 3406104 was the original part number, and the 3406105 (later updated to WP3406105) is the current replacement that superseded it. They are the same door switch and are fully interchangeable. The 3405104 and 3405105 are also cross-references for this same switch from earlier production. If your dryer's documentation or old switch label shows any of these numbers, the 3406105 is the correct current replacement.
Why does this switch have 3 wires when my old switch only had 2?
The WP3406105 is an SPDT (Single Pole, Double Throw) switch with 3 terminals — Common, Normally Open, and Normally Closed. Some older dryer models used a simpler 2-wire switch, but the 3-wire WP3406105 is the updated replacement that works on both older and newer models. On models that originally had a 2-wire switch, only two of the three terminals are used — the third is simply left unconnected. Follow your model's wiring diagram or take a photo of the original switch's wire connections before removing it.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured from durable plastic and metal with stainless steel terminals to match the dimensions and electrical specifications of the original WP3406105 door switch assembly.

XPARTCO WH01X24378 Washer / Dryer Cycle Selector Knob
The XPARTCO WH01X24378 is an aftermarket replacement cycle selector knob (options knob) compatible with a wide range of GE, Hotpoint, RCA, Haier, Monogram, and Café washers and dryers. The selector knob is one of the primary user controls on the appliance's control panel — it's what you grip and turn to choose the wash or dry options and settings for each load. On many GE-platform washers and dryers, this smaller selector knob works alongside a larger main timer/cycle knob to give you fine-grained control over the specific options within your selected cycle. Over time, selector knobs wear out from repeated twisting motions, get cracked or dropped, or lose their grip on the internal shaft — all of which make it difficult or impossible to change the appliance's settings.
Constructed from heat-resistant plastic with a clean white and chrome finish. Snap-on installation — no tools required. Pulls straight off the control shaft and pushes back on. This knob directly replaces WH01X24378, AP5986397, 4396548, and PS11726904. Important: this is the smaller cycle selector/options knob. If you need the larger main timer knob for your GE washer, that's a different part number (PS11736611) — check which knob is broken before ordering. Installs in under 1 minute — no tools required.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WH01X24378 Washer Cycle Selector Knob replaces a cracked, loose, stripped, or missing selector knob on GE, Hotpoint, RCA, Haier, Monogram, and Café washers and dryers. Heat-resistant plastic, white and chrome finish. Snap-on installation — pulls straight off, pushes back on. Replaces AP5986397, 4396548, PS11726904. This is the smaller cycle/options knob — NOT the larger main timer knob (PS11736611). No tools required.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Selector knob cracked, broken, or split from age and repeated use
Knob loose and slipping on the control shaft — no longer changes settings when turned
Knob has stripped or damaged internal grip and won't stay coupled to the shaft
Knob missing entirely from the control panel
Knob damaged from impact — dropped or bumped
Knob discolored, faded, or worn from years of daily handling
Difficulty selecting cycle options — knob no longer clicks into detent positions cleanly
Water or detergent damage to the knob material

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer/Dryer Before Starting — Quick Toolless Replacement Disconnect power before beginning as a general safety precaution. Wear work gloves if desired. Locate the old cycle selector knob on the control panel of your washer or dryer. Grip the knob firmly and pull it straight off the control shaft — it should come off with a moderate pull (no tools or hardware required). If the knob is stuck or the internal grip has stripped and it's spinning without releasing, use a soft cloth wrapped around it for better grip, or gently pry it off with a plastic tool (avoid metal tools that could damage the control panel finish). Once the old knob is off, inspect the metal or plastic control shaft — if it's damaged, worn round, or spinning freely with no resistance, the underlying switch or shaft may also need replacement. If the shaft is intact, align the new WH01X24378 knob with the flat sides of the shaft (the knob has a matching D-shape or flat receiver inside) and push it firmly into place until it seats fully. Rotate the knob through its full range of positions to confirm it clicks into detents cleanly and turns smoothly. Restore power and run a test cycle. Tools needed: None (soft cloth optional).
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the smaller or larger knob on my GE washer?
The WH01X24378 is the smaller cycle selector (options) knob. Many GE washers and dryers have two knobs on the control panel: a larger main timer/cycle knob that selects the primary wash program, and a smaller cycle options knob (this one) that selects sub-options like temperature, spin speed, or soil level. Before ordering, look at your control panel and identify which knob has failed — if the smaller knob is broken, this is the correct part. If the larger main timer knob is broken, you need a different part (PS11736611 on many GE models). The two knobs are not interchangeable.
How do I remove the old knob if it's cracked or spinning without coming off?
If the internal grip on the old knob has stripped and it's spinning freely on the shaft without releasing, wrap a soft cloth around it for extra grip and pull firmly straight up. If that still doesn't work, gently pry it off with a plastic pry tool (a plastic putty knife or credit card can work). Avoid metal tools that could scratch the control panel finish. If the knob is cracked, you can sometimes break away the broken pieces to expose the internal grip on the shaft, then work each piece off. Once the old knob is off, inspect the control shaft — if it's damaged or spinning without resistance, the underlying switch may need replacement too.
Do I really not need any tools for this?
Correct — the WH01X24378 uses a snap-on installation with no screws or hardware. To install, align the new knob with the flat side (D-shape) of the control shaft and push it straight down until it seats fully. The whole replacement typically takes under a minute. Just make sure the knob is fully seated and rotates through all positions with the correct detent clicks before you plug the appliance back in.
The knob installs fine but my washer still doesn't change settings — what next?
If the new knob is installed correctly (fully seated and rotates through positions with detent clicks) but changing the knob position doesn't change the cycle behavior, the underlying selector switch or control shaft has likely failed — not the knob. Common causes include the shaft spinning freely without engaging the switch inside (the shaft has stripped or broken), or the electrical selector switch itself has failed. In these cases, replacing just the knob won't fix the problem — the switch assembly behind the panel also needs to be replaced. Contact our support team with your model number for the correct switch part number.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured from heat-resistant plastic to match the dimensions, D-shape shaft receiver, snap-on installation, and cycle selection function of the original WH01X24378 selector knob used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, RCA, Haier, Monogram, and Café washers and dryers.
