XPARTCO 3949238 Washer Lid Switch Replaces WP3949238
The XPARTCO 3949238 is an aftermarket replacement lid switch assembly for Whirlpool top-load washers, and also fits select Kenmore models. This switch confirms the lid is closed before the washer will spin — a pin on the underside of the lid pushes against the switch's lever, telling the machine it's safe to proceed with the cycle.
Includes a 3-wire lead and a metal shield for added durability. Over time, the switch's internal contacts can wear out or fail electrically. If your washer will agitate but won't spin, this switch is a strong candidate for the cause. Symptoms of a failing lid switch include the washer not spinning, not draining, not starting, not agitating, the cycle failing to advance, or the lid not closing properly. It directly replaces WP3949238, 3949238, WP3949238VP, 10800-61, AP6008880, AWP47911, EAP11742021, OEM18026649, PD00002488, PS11742021.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 3949238 Washer Lid Switch fixes Whirlpool and Kenmore top-load washers that won't spin, won't drain, won't start, won't agitate, won't advance through the cycle, or have a lid that won't close properly.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer And Shut Off Water Supply Before Starting Unplug your washer and turn off the water supply before you begin — make sure both the hot and cold water supplies are shut off. Remove the screws located on the back of the washer cabinet, usually located at the top of the access panel. Lift or tilt the top of the washer to access the lid switch, typically mounted near the lid opening. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the wire connectors from the old switch and remove the mounting screws securing it in place. Install the new 3949238 in the same position, reconnect the wire connectors fully, and secure the mounting screws. Reassemble the washer cabinet and secure its screws. Restore power and water, then run a test cycle with the lid closed to confirm the washer spins normally. Tools needed: multi screwdriver.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer agitates but won't spin. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is the classic and most reliable symptom of a failed lid switch. This switch confirms to the washer's control system that the lid is closed before allowing the spin cycle to run — a failed switch commonly still allows agitation while preventing spin, since spin specifically requires the lid-closed signal.
Is this the same as the 3949247 switch I've seen listed nearby?
No, these are separate lid switch part numbers, despite the similar numbering. 3949247 is used on different models. Always confirm your exact part number from your washer's parts diagram or the sticker on your old switch before ordering.
Is this a difficult repair?
No, this is a straightforward repair requiring basic hand tools and some cabinet disassembly, suitable for a novice DIYer. A multi screwdriver is typically all that's needed.
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 wiring, mounting, and switching function of the original WP3949238 lid switch assembly used in compatible Whirlpool and Kenmore top-load washers.

XPARTCO W10913953 Washer Shift Actuator
The XPARTCO W10913953 is an aftermarket replacement washer shift actuator assembly compatible with select Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Amana, Crosley, Inglis, and Roper top-load washers with VM (variable motor) transmissions — including Whirlpool Cabrio, Maytag Centennial, and Maytag Bravos series. The shift actuator is a small synchronous gearmotor assembly located beneath the washer tub that controls how the transmission shifts between agitation mode and spin mode during the wash cycle. It moves the arm on the cam ring assembly to engage the basket (for spinning) or disengage it and engage only the agitator or wash plate (for agitation). The shift actuator also contains an internal tachometer that continuously reports the basket's rotational speed to the control board.
When the shift actuator fails — most commonly due to a stripped or broken gear inside the gearmotor — the washer may not agitate, not spin, get stuck in one phase of the cycle, display error codes F7E1 or F7E5, or produce a loud grinding or clicking noise as the gears fail. This 6-pin plug assembly is rated 120V, 60Hz, 4W with a synchronous motor running at 3 RPM clockwise rotation. It measures 4-1/4"L x 2-3/4"W x 1-7/8"H and directly replaces W10815026, W10597177, WPW10597177, 4455082, 49TYZ-E120A1, 50SM21-1-221B, AP6037270, and PS11769864. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO W10913953 Washer Shift Actuator fixes Whirlpool Cabrio, Maytag Centennial, and Maytag Bravos top-load washers that won't agitate, won't spin, display error codes F7E1 or F7E5, or make grinding/clicking noises when trying to shift cycles. 6-pin plug, 120V/60Hz/4W synchronous motor, 3 RPM CW, 4-1/4"L x 2-3/4"W x 1-7/8"H.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning. The shift actuator is located beneath the washer tub on the drive shaft assembly. To access it, remove the washer cabinet by unscrewing the top panel and releasing the front panel, or lay the washer on its back if your model requires it. The shift actuator is mounted to the bottom of the drive shaft assembly with mounting screws and connects to the washer's control harness via a 6-pin plug. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting. Remove the mounting screws, disconnect the 6-pin harness, and slide the old actuator off the shaft. Install the new W10913953 actuator in the same position and orientation, secure the mounting screws, and reconnect the 6-pin harness. Reassemble the cabinet, restore power and water, and run a test cycle through both agitation and spin to confirm normal operation. Note: if grinding noise continues after replacing the actuator, inspect the pulley clutch kit (W10721967 / W10006384) for wear. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, Torx screwdriver (T20 on some models).
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the shift actuator do in a top-load washer?
The shift actuator is a small synchronous gearmotor that controls the transmission shifting in Whirlpool Cabrio, Maytag Centennial, and Bravos-style VM-transmission top-load washers. During a wash cycle, the control board signals the actuator to move the cam ring arm — this engages or disengages the drive connection between the motor and the basket. When the cam moves one way, only the agitator or wash plate moves (agitation mode). When it moves the other way, the basket engages and spins at high speed (spin mode). The actuator also contains a tachometer that tells the control board how fast the basket is rotating, which the board uses to manage spin speed and detect imbalance.
What are error codes F7E1 and F7E5?
On compatible Whirlpool Cabrio and Maytag Centennial/Bravos top-load washers, F7E1 indicates a motor shift error — the actuator failed to complete the shift between agitate and spin mode within the expected time. F7E5 indicates a basket speed sensing fault — the tachometer inside the actuator is not providing a valid speed signal to the control board. Both codes are commonly caused by a failed shift actuator, though a failed drive motor, clutch assembly, or control board can also produce these codes. Replacing the shift actuator resolves both error codes in most cases.
Should I also check the pulley clutch kit?
Yes — if the shift actuator is replaced but the grinding noise persists, or if the washer still does not agitate or spin properly after the new actuator is installed, inspect the pulley clutch kit (W10721967 / W10006384). The clutch kit is a separate assembly that works in conjunction with the shift actuator to engage the drum. A worn or stripped clutch can produce the same symptoms as a failed actuator and is a common companion failure. Since the washer is already disassembled to replace the actuator, it is a good opportunity to inspect the clutch for wear.
What is the difference between W10913953 and W10815026?
The W10815026 was an earlier version of this shift actuator, and the W10913953 is the updated current replacement. Both are the same functional component — Whirlpool updated the part number during a production revision. The W10597177 and WPW10597177 are also cross-references for this same actuator. If your washer's parts diagram shows any of these older numbers, the W10913953 is the correct current replacement to order.
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 with a synchronous gearmotor and ABS housing to match the electrical specifications and dimensions of the original W10913953 shift actuator.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning any repair. Place towels and a shallow pan under the pump access area to catch residual water. Remove the front lower access panel of the washer. Before removing the pump, first clean the pump filter (WH23X38617) and check for a clogged filter or debris in the pump housing — a jammed impeller is sometimes mistaken for a failed pump. If the pump motor is confirmed failed, disconnect the wire harness and drain hoses from the old pump assembly, then unscrew or unclip the pump from the mounting bracket. Install the new WH11X39237 pump assembly, reconnect the drain hoses and secure with clamps, reconnect the wire harness, and reinstall the access panel. Restore power and water supply, then run a drain-only cycle to verify proper drainage and check for leaks. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, shallow pan or towels.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between WH11X39237 and WH11X29539?
These are the same drain pump assembly — WH11X39237 is the current updated part number that GE issued to replace the discontinued WH11X29539. If your washer's documentation, parts diagram, or old pump label shows WH11X29539, the WH11X39237 is the correct replacement to order.
Should I check the pump filter before replacing the drain pump?
Yes — always check and clean the pump filter (WH23X38617) before replacing the drain pump. A heavily clogged filter can restrict water flow enough to mimic pump failure symptoms, and a foreign object jammed in the impeller can stall the pump motor without permanently damaging it. Remove the filter, clear any debris from the housing and impeller, and test the washer again. If the pump still fails to drain after cleaning, then pump replacement is the next step.
How do I know if my drain pump has failed?
A failed drain pump typically causes the washer to stop mid-cycle with a drain error code, or to finish a cycle with standing water in the drum. You may also hear a loud humming noise during the drain phase — this indicates the motor is running but the impeller is not turning (jammed or broken). A grinding noise suggests physical damage to the impeller or pump housing. If the pump is completely silent during the drain cycle despite power being delivered to it, the motor has likely burned out.
Is the WH11X39237 compatible with GE Profile and GE 2-in-1 models?
Yes — the WH11X39237 is compatible with select GE Profile front-load washers in the PFW870, PFW950, PFW955, and PFQ83 series, as well as select GE 2-in-1 Washer/Dryer Combo models. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
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 to match the electrical specifications and physical dimensions of the original WH11X39237 drain pump assembly.

MDS66290824 Genuine OEM Washer Door Gasket
The Genuine OEM MDS66290824 is a factory-original door boot gasket manufactured by LG for use in LG front-load washers and washer-dryer combo units. The gasket forms the watertight seal between the door, cabinet, and tub, flexing with every door open/close cycle while keeping wash water contained inside the drum. As the rubber ages, it commonly cracks, tears, or develops mold/mildew buildup in its folds, and a compromised seal leads directly to water leaking out around the door during the wash or spin cycle.
This is a current-production part: MDS66290824. As the genuine LG part, it ships in factory black rubber matching the original color, fold pattern, and mounting groove, so it seats and seals exactly like the original.
Quick Answer
The Genuine OEM MDS66290824 Washer Door Gasket fixes LG front-load washers and washer-dryer combo units that leak water around the door, or that have a cracked, torn, or moldy door boot seal. Classic symptom: water pooling on the floor in front of the washer after a cycle, with visible cracking or gaps in the door seal.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Water leaking from around the door during the wash or spin cycle
Visible cracks, tears, or splits in the door boot rubber
Mold or mildew buildup trapped in the gasket folds that won't clean out
Door boot pulling away from its mounting groove on the cabinet or tub

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting Disconnect power before beginning. Open the door and locate the large outer retaining band (spring clamp) holding the gasket to the front cabinet panel — release it with pliers or a flat-blade screwdriver and pull the gasket's outer lip free from the cabinet opening. Working around the boot, fold the gasket into the drum opening to access the inner retaining band securing it to the tub; release this band as well and remove the old gasket. Check for and transfer any small parts such as the drain/pressure sensor port fitting if your model routes one through the boot. Fit the new MDS66290824 gasket's inner lip into the tub-side mounting groove first, working it evenly around the full circumference, then reinstall the inner retaining band. Fold the gasket back out and seat the outer lip into the cabinet opening, aligning it evenly, then reinstall the outer retaining band. Restore power and run a cycle with the door closed to check for leaks around the full perimeter of the seal. Tools needed: pliers or a flat-blade screwdriver, and a spring clamp tool if your model uses a wire-spring outer band.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is MDS66290824 the same as MDS66290803?
MDS66290824 is the current genuine LG gasket, and it supersedes the earlier MDS66290803 revision, which is no longer produced new. If your washer's parts diagram or old gasket shows MDS66290803, this MDS66290824 is the correct current replacement — LG has updated the part number but the fit and function for your model remain the same.
My washer is leaking water from the door — is this the part I need?
In most cases, yes. A worn, cracked, or torn door boot gasket is the most common cause of water leaking around the door on a front-load washer. Inspect the gasket's folds closely for splits or debris (coins, small items) caught in the seal, since a foreign object trapped in the boot can also prevent a full seal without the gasket itself being damaged.
Do I need to transfer any parts from my old gasket?
Check whether your model routes a drain hose fitting, pressure sensor port, or door lock striker through the boot itself. If so, that fitting typically transfers from the old gasket to the new one, or is a separate reusable part — inspect your old gasket carefully before disposal in case a component needs to be moved over.
Can I clean mold out of the gasket instead of replacing it?
Light surface mold can often be cleaned with a diluted bleach or vinegar solution and a soft brush, and running the washer's tub-clean cycle regularly helps prevent it from returning. However, if mold has caused the rubber to degrade, crack, or lose its seal, cleaning won't restore a proper watertight fit — replacement is the reliable fix once the gasket itself is damaged.

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.

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.

AHA72973309 Genuine OEM LG Washer Drain & Circulation Pump Assembly
The AHA72973309 is a genuine LG OEM drain and circulation pump assembly for LG and select Kenmore front-load washers. This is a dual-purpose pump — an Askoll M120-2 unit — that handles two separate jobs from one motor and housing. During the drain portion of the cycle, it pumps wastewater out of the tub and out through the drain hose. During the wash and rinse portions, it switches roles and recirculates water from the bottom of the tub back up through the dispenser and spray nozzle, showering it back over the load. That recirculation spray is what lets LG's front-load washers clean effectively with less water than an older top-load design would need.
Because this single assembly performs both functions, a failure here can show up in more than one way: standing water left in the tub after a cycle, a washer that won't complete its drain step, unusual grinding or humming noise, or reduced wash performance if the recirculation spray isn't working even though draining still seems fine. Common causes include debris such as coins, buttons, or lint lodged in the impeller, general wear and tear on the motor bearings, or an electrical failure in the pump motor itself. It directly replaces AP5676608, 2659237, AHA72973304, and PS7788830. As a genuine OEM part, the AHA72973309 is manufactured by LG to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
Quick Answer
The AHA72973309 Genuine OEM LG Washer Drain & Circulation Pump Assembly fixes LG and select Kenmore front-load washers with standing water left in the tub after a cycle, a washer that won't drain, unusual grinding or humming noise, or reduced wash performance from a weak recirculation spray. Askoll M120-2 dual-purpose pump — handles both draining and mid-cycle water recirculation. Replaces AP5676608, 2659237, AHA72973304, PS7788830. Installation is average difficulty, 30 to 60 minutes — and on many models it's accessible through the front panel without needing to tip the washer over.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Standing water left in the tub after a cycle finishes
Washer won't drain, or drains very slowly
Drainage-related error code displayed on the control panel
Unusual grinding, humming, or rattling noise during the drain or wash portion of the cycle
Reduced wash performance — clothes not getting as clean, possibly from a weak recirculation spray
Washer stalling mid-cycle at the drain step
Water leaking from underneath the washer near the pump housing
Pump that hums but doesn't seem to move water — possible clog or seized impeller

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer And Shut Off Water Before Starting — Drain Residual Water First Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker, and close the water supply valves before beginning. Wear work gloves. Place towels down and have a shallow pan ready, since the pump housing will hold residual water even after a completed cycle — draining this into a pan before disconnecting hoses will save you a mess. On many models, this pump is fully accessible by removing the front lower access panel or kick plate, without needing to tip the washer onto its back — check this first, since it can save significant time and effort compared to some online guides that recommend tipping the unit. Photograph the hose routing and wiring connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the two hose clamps connecting the pump to the tub and drain hose, and unplug the electrical connector from the pump motor. Remove the mounting screws or clips securing the pump assembly and lift it free, checking the impeller area for coins, buttons, or debris while it's out — clearing a clog here may have been the actual cause of the original symptom. Install the new AHA72973309 in the same orientation, reconnect both hoses with their clamps, and reconnect the electrical connector fully. Reinstall the front access panel, restore water and power, and run a short cycle to confirm normal draining, recirculation spray, and no leaks around the pump housing. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, hose clamp pliers, shallow pan or towels, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I really need to tip the washer over to replace this pump?
Not necessarily — check your model first. While a lot of general online guidance recommends tipping the washer onto its back to access the pump from underneath, many LG and Kenmore Elite front-load models make this pump fully accessible through the front lower access panel or kick plate instead, without any tipping required. It's worth removing that panel first and seeing what you find before committing to the more involved tip-over approach.
Why does this one pump handle both draining and something during the wash cycle?
LG's front-load washers use this same Askoll pump for two different jobs at different points in the cycle: pumping wastewater out during the drain step, and recirculating water from the bottom of the tub back up through the dispenser and spray nozzle during wash and rinse to shower it over the load. That recirculation spray is part of how these washers clean effectively while using less water than an older top-load design. Because one pump does both jobs, a failure can affect draining, wash performance, or both, depending on what's actually gone wrong inside it.
There's water left in the tub after every cycle. Is this definitely the pump?
It's one of the most common causes, but check the easy things first. A clogged drain filter or a kinked drain hose can produce the same "won't drain" symptom and cost nothing to fix. If the filter and hose are clear and water is still standing in the tub, or if the pump hums but doesn't seem to move any water, the pump assembly itself has likely failed.
My washer drains fine but clothes aren't coming out as clean. Could this pump be the cause?
Possibly. Since this same assembly also handles the recirculation spray during wash, a partial failure can leave draining intact while weakening or eliminating that spray function, which reduces how effectively detergent and water reach the load. If drainage is normal but wash performance has noticeably declined, it's worth having this pump checked as one possible cause alongside things like detergent dosing and water hardness.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by LG to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same Askoll M120-2 dual-function pump design, wiring, and mounting configuration as the drain and circulation pump assembly originally installed in your front-load washer.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning any repair. Have towels and a shallow pan ready to catch residual water. For top-load GE washers, the drain pump is typically accessed from the bottom of the machine — carefully tilt the washer back onto a support or lay it on its side to reach the pump from underneath. Disconnect the outlet hose by loosening the hose clamp and pulling it free. Disconnect the electrical harness connector. Remove the mounting screws (typically three) securing the pump to the washer base. Twist and firmly pull the old pump out. Install the new WH23X28418 pump in reverse order — connect the hose, tighten the clamp, reconnect the harness, and secure the mounting screws. Restore power and water supply and run a test cycle to verify proper drainage and no leaks. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, flat-head screwdriver, slip-joint pliers, shallow pan.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the relationship between WH23X28418, WH23X24178, and WH23X27574?
All three are GE washer drain pumps — WH23X28418 is the current updated part number that replaced both the discontinued WH23X24178 and WH23X27574. GE redesigned the pump motor during its production cycle, so the replacement may look slightly different from the original, but it fits and functions identically. If your washer uses either of the older numbers, order WH23X28418.
How do I know if my washer drain pump has failed?
The most common signs are standing water in the tub after a cycle, the washer stopping mid-cycle with a drain error, or loud humming during the drain phase — which indicates the motor is running but the impeller is not moving. A grinding or rattling noise suggests debris in the pump or physical damage. If the pump is completely silent during what should be the drain cycle, the motor has likely burned out and the pump needs replacement.
Does the WH23X28418 fit both top-load and front-load GE washers?
The WH23X28418 is primarily used in GE and Hotpoint top-load washers — the GTW and HTW series make up the majority of compatible models. It also fits select GE front-load models. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to confirm compatibility for your washer type.
What is the duty cycle rating and why does it matter?
The duty cycle of 10 minutes on / 50 minutes off means the pump motor is rated for up to 10 consecutive minutes of operation before requiring a 50-minute rest period. In normal washer operation this is never an issue — drain cycles are brief. However, if a drain fault causes the pump to run continuously without successfully draining, the motor can overheat. If you replace the pump due to burnout and the new pump also fails quickly, check for a drain hose blockage or control board fault that may be causing the pump to run without limit.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by GE to factory specifications — the exact same drain pump and motor assembly installed in compatible models from the factory, with guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

XPARTCO WE12X27300 Washer Drive Belt
The XPARTCO WE12X27300 is an aftermarket replacement washer drive belt for GE stacked laundry center (combination washer/dryer) units, and also fits select Whirlpool, Amana, Hotpoint, Haier, and Kenmore combo models. This belt connects the motor pulley to the washer's drive system, transmitting rotation to spin the basket during agitation and spin cycles.
Made of neoprene rubber for corrosion resistance, low temperature resistance, wear resistance, and stability. Measures approximately 23" long, 0.5" wide, and 0.12" thick. Over time, the belt stretches, cracks, or wears through from age and regular use. Symptoms of a failing belt include the washer spinning extremely slowly, the washer failing to agitate, excessive noise during operation, or complete belt failure leaving the basket unable to move at all. It directly replaces 4587578, AP6328196, PS12342956, EAP12342956, FIX12342956, 253C1275P001, 5PJ587, 5PJ587SJ161, WE12X27300-50PK, AGE25036, and PD00054473.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WE12X27300 Washer Drive Belt fixes GE, Whirlpool, Amana, Hotpoint, Haier, and Kenmore stacked laundry center units where the washer spins extremely slowly, won't agitate, or makes excessive noise. Neoprene rubber, approx. 23" long, 0.5" wide, 0.12" thick. Replaces 4587578, AP6328196, PS12342956, EAP12342956, FIX12342956, 253C1275P001, 5PJ587SJ161, WE12X27300-50PK, AGE25036, PD00054473. This is a laundry center (combo unit) belt — a different application from a standalone washer belt. Since a worn belt sometimes runs alongside a failing speed sensor, it's worth checking that component too if the belt has clearly worn out.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug The Laundry Center Before Starting Disconnect power to the laundry center unit at the outlet before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access the washer's drive belt through the appropriate access panel for your model — since this is a combined washer/dryer unit, take care to work only in the washer section. Locate the old belt connecting the motor pulley to the drive system. Slide the old belt off the pulleys. Fit the new WE12X27300 belt around the pulleys in the same path as the old one, making sure it seats correctly and is properly tensioned. Reassemble the access panel. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the washer agitates and spins normally with no excessive noise. Tools needed: basic hand tools, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My laundry center's washer spins very slowly. Is this the belt I need?
Yes, this is a documented symptom of a worn drive belt. As the belt stretches or wears down, it can no longer grip the pulleys effectively, resulting in a noticeably slower spin than normal, along with possible noise or agitation problems.
Should I check anything else while I'm replacing this belt?
It's worth checking the speed sensor if your unit has one. One customer specifically noted they were replacing their speed sensor and noticed the belt was also worn, so they replaced both at the same time — a worn belt and a failing speed sensor can sometimes develop around the same time on the same unit.
Is this the same as a standalone GE washer belt?
No, this belt is specifically for GE-style stacked laundry center units, where the washer and dryer are combined into one appliance. It's a different part from standalone GE washer belts, such as WH01X24180 or WH01X24697, used on separate washing machines. Confirm your unit type and model number before ordering.
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 to match the length, width, thickness, and material of the original WE12X27300 drive belt used in compatible GE, Whirlpool, Amana, Hotpoint, Haier, and Kenmore laundry center units.

Troubleshooting Guide
Disconnect the dryer from electrical power before opening or servicing the cabinet.
Inspect the exhaust vent, lint path, and blower area. Restricted airflow can produce symptoms similar to a failed thermistor.
Inspect the thermistor body, terminals, connector, and wire harness for damage, corrosion, loose connections, or heat discoloration.
Disconnect the thermistor and test resistance with a multimeter. Compare the reading with the dryer service information for the measured temperature.
Warm or cool the sensor carefully. Resistance should change smoothly as temperature changes; an open circuit, short circuit, or unstable reading can indicate failure.
Check the heater circuit, thermal devices, moisture-sensing system, and control board when the thermistor tests within specification.
Safety: Do not bypass a thermistor or protective temperature device. Installation and diagnosis should be performed by a qualified person when you are not comfortable servicing electrical appliances.
When Should You Replace This Part?
The thermistor is open, shorted, or outside the specified resistance range
The sensor reading does not change correctly with temperature
The housing or connector is cracked, burned, or physically damaged
A service diagnostic identifies W11683629 as the failed component
Airflow and related heating components have been checked and the thermistor fails testing
