Description: This Drain Pump Motor is a Genuine OEM component for select Maytag, Kenmore, Whirlpool dishwasher models. This electric motor powers the drain pump to empty wash water from the tub at the end of cycles. Common causes of a bad pump motor include wear over extended use, moisture damage degrading electronics, or electrical faults from voltage fluctuations.
XPARTCO 5221ER1003S Washer Water Valve
The XPARTCO 5221ER1003S is an aftermarket replacement cold water inlet valve for LG and select Kenmore front-load washers. This valve sits underneath the top panel, at the point where the cold water supply hose connects, and it's the gatekeeper for cold water entering the tub. When the control calls for a cold fill, it energizes the valve's solenoid to open, admitting water; once the correct level is reached, it closes again. This part controls the cold water side specifically — hot fills on these washers are governed by a separate valve.
Rated 12V and terminated with small male spade connectors, this valve measures approximately 4.75"H x 3.25"W x 2.25"L, with a gray plastic and metal housing. Over time, rust and mineral buildup inside the valve body — a documented failure point on this platform — can prevent it from sealing fully, which lets water continue flowing even after the valve is told to close. A washer that keeps filling even while draining, or that leaks steadily at the cold connection, is a strong sign of exactly this kind of stuck-open valve failure. Other failure modes include a burned-out solenoid coil and general wear from age. It directly replaces 4869496, AP6798394, PS12587936, and EAP12587936, and is also cross-referenced to the related 5221ER1003A part number.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 5221ER1003S Washer Water Valve fixes LG and select Kenmore front-load washers where cold water won't fill, fills slowly, keeps filling continuously (even while draining), or leaks at the water connection. 12V cold water inlet valve, small male spade terminals, 4.75"H x 3.25"W x 2.25"L. Replaces 4869496, AP6798394, PS12587936, EAP12587936. Rust and mineral buildup inside the valve body is a documented cause of it sticking open — check for rust at the connection before you order.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer won't fill with cold water at the start of the cycle
Cold water fills much more slowly than it used to
Washer keeps filling continuously, even while water is simultaneously draining out
Water leaking steadily at the cold water connection point
Visible rust or mineral buildup around the valve body or connection
Cycle stalling at the fill step and never advancing to wash
Water pooling underneath or behind the washer near the cold supply line
Cold wash or cold rinse cycles specifically affected while other cycles run fine

Installation Notes
⚠️ Shut Off Water Supply And Unplug Washer Before Starting — Have A Towel Ready Unplug the washer and shut off the cold water supply valve before beginning. Wear work gloves. Pull the washer away from the wall for access. Unthread the cold water supply line from the back of the valve first — have a towel ready, since residual water will spill out. Unthread the two screws securing the top panel, then slide the panel back and lift it off to access the valve assembly underneath. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the spade terminal wire connectors from the old valve, remove its mounting screw or bracket, and pull the valve free. While it's out, inspect the area for rust or mineral scale, and clean the connection point if needed before installing the new valve. Install the new 5221ER1003S in the same position, reconnect the spade terminals, and secure the mounting hardware. Rethread the cold water supply line onto the new valve, tightening securely. Reinstall the top panel and its two screws. Restore the water supply and power, then run a short cycle and confirm the tub fills at the normal rate with no leaking underneath or behind the washer. Tools needed: channellock pliers, flathead screwdriver, pliers, drill/driver with a Phillips bit, towel, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer keeps filling even while it's draining. Is that this valve?
Yes, this is a well-documented failure mode on this platform. Rust and mineral buildup inside the valve body can prevent it from sealing fully closed, so water keeps trickling or flowing into the tub even after the fill portion of the cycle has ended — sometimes enough to keep pace with draining, making it look like the washer is filling and draining simultaneously. If you open up the top panel and see rust around the valve, that strongly confirms this diagnosis.
Cold water won't fill but hot water works fine. Is this the right part?
Yes — this valve controls cold water specifically, and some LG front-load washers use a separate valve for the hot supply. If cold-specific cycles are failing while hot water fills normally, this cold valve is the correct part to replace.
I see rust on my old valve but it isn't leaking yet. Should I still replace it?
It's worth strongly considering. Rust and mineral buildup on this valve is a known precursor to it sticking partially open, which can lead to continuous filling, water waste, and potential water damage if it isn't caught. If you're already inspecting the area and see corrosion forming, replacing the valve proactively is often cheaper and easier than dealing with an active leak later.
What's the difference between 5221ER1003S and 5221ER1003A?
These are cross-referenced as the same valve — 5221ER1003A appears on some parts diagrams and listings as an alternate or prior designation for the identical part. If your washer's diagram shows either number, this listing is the correct replacement.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured to match the 12V solenoid design, spade terminal connections, and dimensions of the original 5221ER1003S cold water valve used in compatible LG and Kenmore front-load washers.

WP21352320 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Drive Belt
The WP21352320 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM drive belt for Whirlpool top-load washers. This belt connects the drive motor to the transmission at the bottom of the washer, and it's what actually spins the basket during the wash and spin cycles. Unlike a dryer's drum belt, which simply tumbles a drum, this washer drive belt has to transfer real torque to spin a heavy, water-filled basket, which puts it under considerably more mechanical stress.
Measuring approximately 51" long and 3/8" wide. A worn or broken belt produces a distinctive set of symptoms: the washer may not spin at all, spin only slowly, agitate poorly or not at all, fail to drain properly since the pump relies on the same drive system, or produce a burning smell or loud grinding noise as a worn belt slips against the pulley. One useful diagnostic tip worth knowing: a belt can look intact at a glance but still be worn out — if the sides of the belt appear shiny or glazed rather than matte, that's a sign of slippage-related wear even without a visible crack. It directly replaces 21001478, 21352320, 35-2073, 35-2320, AP6005822, WP21352320VP, and PS11738882.
Quick Answer
The WP21352320 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Drive Belt fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, Roper, Admiral, Jenn-Air, Estate, Magic Chef, Crosley, Inglis, Norge, Amana, Kenmore, KitchenAid, and Ikea top-load washers with a drum that won't spin, spins slowly, won't agitate, won't drain, or produces a burning smell or loud grinding noise. Approximately 51" long, 3/8" wide. Replaces 21001478, 21352320, 35-2073, 35-2320, AP6005822, WP21352320VP, PS11738882. A belt can look intact but still be worn out — check the sides for a shiny, glazed appearance, which indicates slippage wear even without a visible crack.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer drum won't spin, or spins only slowly
Washer won't agitate during the wash cycle

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer And Shut Off Water Supply Before Starting — Consider The Motor Pulley While You're In There Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker, and shut off both the hot and cold water supply valves before beginning. Pull the washer out from the wall for full access. Wear work gloves. Locate the drive belt around the motor at the bottom of the washer. Use a flathead screwdriver or hex wrench to remove the screws holding the motor bracket in place, which releases tension on the belt. Carefully slide the motor bracket off the motor, and use pliers if needed to work the old belt off the pulley. While the bottom of the washer is accessible, this is a good time to inspect the motor pulley for wear as well, since it's a related component you'll already have exposed. Install the new WP21352320 belt around the pulley and transmission, following the same routing as the old belt, and make sure it's seated securely and tightened properly — a loose or improperly seated belt will slip and wear out quickly. Reattach the motor bracket with its screws. Restore the water supply and power, then run a test cycle to confirm the washer spins, agitates, and drains normally with no unusual noise. Tools needed: multi-bit screwdriver, hex wrench, standard pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My belt looks fine — no cracks or visible damage. Could it still need replacing?
Yes, and this is a common source of confusion. A belt can appear intact with no cracks and still be worn out. Check the sides of the belt closely: if they look shiny or glazed rather than having a matte, textured surface, that glazing indicates the belt has been slipping against the pulley, which is a clear sign of wear even without visible cracking.
My washer pumps and drains but the drum spins slowly or not at all. Is this the belt?
Yes, this is one of the most direct symptoms of a worn or slipping drive belt. Since this belt is what actually transfers the motor's power to spin the basket, a worn belt can slip under load, causing slow or absent spinning even though the motor itself and the drain pump are both working normally.
Should I replace the motor pulley at the same time?
It's worth inspecting while you have the bottom of the washer accessible, even if you don't end up replacing it. A worn pulley can accelerate wear on a brand-new belt, so checking its condition during this repair is a reasonable precaution, especially if your old belt showed the glazed, slipping-related wear pattern.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original length, width, and routing configuration of the drive belt originally installed in your washer.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning. On most compatible Frigidaire-platform washers, the drive belt is accessed by removing the back panel or by laying the washer on its side to access the motor and pulley from the bottom. The belt wraps around the motor pulley (small, at the motor shaft) and the transmission pulley or basket (large, beneath the tub). Release the old belt by slipping it off the motor pulley — the motor may need to be slightly unbolted and shifted to relieve tension, depending on your model. Route the new 134511600 belt around both pulleys in the same path as the original and seat it firmly in the V-groove on each pulley. If the motor position is adjustable, re-tension the belt so it deflects no more than 1/2 inch when pressed in the middle. Reinstall the back panel, restore power and water, and run a test cycle to confirm the basket agitates and spins normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, socket set or adjustable wrench.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the washer drive belt do?
The drive belt is the power transmission link between the motor and the washer basket. The motor turns a small drive pulley on its shaft, and the drive belt wraps around both the motor pulley and the larger transmission or basket pulley, transferring the motor's rotation to spin the basket. Without an intact, properly tensioned belt, the motor runs but the basket stays still — the washer fills with water, pumps it out, but never agitates or spins clothes. A broken, cracked, or slipping drive belt is one of the most common causes of washer failure on Frigidaire-platform top-load models.
What is the difference between 134511600 and 1156860?
These are the same drive belt. 1156860 is an older cross-reference part number and item number for the same belt that Frigidaire consolidated into the current part number 134511600. The 134161100, 131234000, 131686100, and 3204418 numbers are also cross-references for this same belt from various parts catalog revisions. All are covered by this OEM belt.
My washer pumps but won't spin — is it the belt?
A washer that pumps and drains normally but does not spin the basket is a classic drive belt failure symptom on Frigidaire-platform top-load washers. Since the drain pump is typically driven separately from the basket, a broken belt will stop basket rotation while leaving the pump functioning normally. Open the back panel and visually inspect the belt — if it is broken, stretched to the point of slipping, or missing entirely, replacing the 134511600 belt will restore normal spin and agitation. If the belt looks intact but the basket still doesn't turn, check the motor capacitor or idler pulley.
Should I also inspect the idler pulley when replacing this belt?
Yes — since the washer must be partially disassembled to replace the belt, this is a good opportunity to inspect the idler pulley for wear. The idler pulley maintains belt tension on compatible models — if the pulley bearing is worn or the spring tension is reduced, the belt will slip even when new, causing a burning rubber smell and poor spin performance. The Frigidaire washer idler pulley is sold separately (part 131462600 or 134371700 depending on model). If the idler pulley wobbles or the wheel doesn't spin freely by hand, replace it at the same time as the belt.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications. It is the exact same drive belt installed in compatible Frigidaire, Electrolux, Gibson, and related brand top-load washers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

Replaces Part Numbers: W11665769, W11085683, W10917110, W11164469, AP7212556, PS16875975.
Description: This dishwasher pump and motor assembly is compatible with specific Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore dishwasher models. It is supplied directly by the original manufacturer to ensure that it fits perfectly with your model. The pump and motor are responsible for moving water throughout the dishwasher during the wash cycle. The pump draws water from the tub and pumps it through various channels, such as the detergent dispenser, spray arms, and drain hose. The motor provides the power necessary to drive the circulation pump, causing the pump to rotate and circulate water. If the assembly is faulty, you will notice difficulties starting or filling the dishwasher, poor cleaning performance, incomplete cycles, and water leaks.
W11281268 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Drain Hose
The W11281268 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM external drain hose for Whirlpool, Maytag, and Amana washers. This hose carries wastewater from the washer to your house drain during the drain phase of every cycle, connecting to the washer's outlet spout on one end and to your standpipe or utility sink on the other.
This 6' black flexible hose features an elbow bracket and a grey 90-degree coupler end with a 1" inner diameter, and includes a metal clamp. The manufacturer has updated the design of the rubber fitting that attaches to the back of the washer since earlier versions of this hose were produced — the new fitting looks slightly different but fits and functions the same way as the original. Over time, drain hoses can crack, split, or become brittle with age, or may simply be missing if replaced or damaged during a move. A failing or missing hose typically shows up as water leaking or pooling near the back of the washer during the drain cycle, or no hose present at all on a newly acquired unit. It directly replaces WPW10267638, W10267638, W11250143, W11044871, W11198580, W11234073, and W11050506.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting — Transfer Your Old Clamps To The New Hose Unplug the washer, or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance, before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove the back panel of the washer, then the lower front access panel to access the drain hose connection. Place a towel down before disconnecting any hoses to catch any remaining water. Squeeze the clamp ring with pliers and remove the old hose from the outlet spout on the back of the washer, and disconnect the other end from your standpipe or drain connection. You'll need to transfer your existing hose clamps onto the new W11281268, since a new one isn't included. Fit the new hose over the outlet spout and squeeze the clamp back into place with pliers, then reconnect the other end to your house drain. Reinstall the lower front access panel and back panel. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the hose is secure with no leaks. Tools needed: pliers, work gloves, towel.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this repair difficult?
No, it's a very straightforward repair. Several customers describe it as simple as squeezing the clamp ring with pliers, fitting the new hose over the outlet spout, and moving the clamp back into place — no special tools or advanced skills required.
The rubber fitting looks different from my old hose. Did I get the wrong part?
No, this is expected. The manufacturer has updated the design of the rubber fitting that attaches to the back of the washer since earlier versions of this hose were made. The new fitting will fit and function exactly the same as the original, even though it may look slightly different.
Does this come with new hose clamps?
This hose includes its own metal clamp for the coupler end, but you'll still need to transfer your existing clamps from the old hose for the connections that don't come with a new one included. Keep your old clamps on hand during the swap rather than discarding them with the old hose.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original length, coupler design, and fitting configuration of the drain hose originally installed on your washer.

WD26X25103 Genuine OEM GE Dishwasher Variable Wash Pump Kit
The WD26X25103 is a genuine GE OEM variable wash pump kit for premium GE, Café, GE Profile, Monogram, Hotpoint, and Haier dishwashers. The wash pump is the heart of the cleaning system — it draws filtered water from the sump and drives it under pressure through the lower spray arm, the middle spray arm, and the upper wash manifold. What makes this a variable pump is its variable-speed motor: instead of running at one fixed speed, the control board modulates pump speed throughout the cycle, ramping pressure up for heavy soil and down for delicate loads, and shifting flow between spray zones. That is why a failing variable pump often produces uneven results — the bottom rack comes out clean while the top rack is barely wet.
This is a complete kit, supplied with the circulation pump assembly and its integrated wiring harness, so you are not transferring connectors from the old unit. Typical failure modes include worn motor bearings that produce a loud humming or grinding during the wash portion of the cycle, a seized or debris-jammed impeller, a shaft seal that begins weeping water into the base pan and trips the flood switch, and electrical failure of the variable-speed motor windings. It directly replaces WD26X22789, AP6973120, PS12730515, and EAP12730515. This is a moderate DIY repair — most people budget 1–2 hours.
Quick Answer
The WD26X25103 Genuine OEM GE Variable Wash Pump Kit fixes GE, Café, GE Profile, Monogram, Hotpoint, and Haier dishwashers with dishes that come out dirty or gritty, a top rack that isn't getting wet, weak or no spray arm rotation, loud humming or grinding during the wash cycle, or water pooling in the base pan from a leaking pump seal. Variable-speed motor; kit includes pump assembly plus integrated wiring harness. Replaces WD26X22789, AP6973120, PS12730515, EAP12730515. Fits premium CDT865/CDT866, PDT845/PDT846/PDT855, and ZDT915/ZDT975 platforms — not the same pump as WD26X23258.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dishes not getting clean — food soil, grit, or film left behind after a full cycle
Top rack not getting wet or not getting cleaned while the bottom rack washes normally
Spray arms turning slowly or not turning at all — insufficient water pressure
Loud humming, whining, or grinding noise during the wash portion of the cycle
Dishwasher runs a full cycle quietly with no audible water circulation
Water pooling in the base pan under the dishwasher from a leaking pump shaft seal
Flood switch or leak sensor tripping and shutting the dishwasher down mid-cycle
Cleaning performance that has gradually declined over months as bearings wear
Pump motor humming but the impeller not turning — seized shaft or jammed impeller

Note: GE uses several different circulation pumps across its dishwasher lineup, and they are NOT interchangeable. The WD26X25103 is the variable-speed pump used on premium CDT/PDT/ZDT platforms. It is not the same part as the WD26X23258 circulation pump (GDT695/PDT825 platforms) or the WD26X22518 pump (PDF820/GDT535/ADT521 platforms). Fitting the wrong pump can result in a physical mismatch at the sump or a harness that will not mate with your control board. Always verify your full model number — including the suffix — before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Disconnect Power And Shut Off Water Before Starting Turn off the dishwasher's circuit breaker and close the hot water supply valve under the sink before beginning. Wear work gloves — the tub edges and undercarriage brackets are sharp. Before condemning the pump, run a quick check: remove the lower spray arm and filter assembly, clear any glass chips, seeds, or labels from the sump, and confirm the spray arm ports are not blocked. A clogged filter screen produces the same "dishes not clean" complaint as a failing pump and costs nothing to rule out. To replace the pump, first remove the two screws securing the dishwasher to the underside of the countertop (or to the adjacent cabinets), disconnect the water line and drain hose, and slide the unit out. Most technicians then lay the dishwasher on its front or on its back to reach the pump — put a towel down to protect the door and finish. Photograph the hose routing and wiring before disconnecting anything. Release the two hose clamps and separate the two electrical connections, then unlock the pump from the sump housing — it typically twists to release from a bayonet-style mount — and lift it out. Inspect the sump gasket and seat while the pump is off; replace the gasket if it is hardened, flattened, or nicked. Install the new WD26X25103 in the same orientation, twist to lock, reattach both hoses with their clamps, and reconnect the harness. Reinstall the dishwasher, restore water and power, then run a full cycle and check underneath for leaks before pushing the unit all the way back and reattaching the mounting screws. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, pliers or hose clamp pliers, towel, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My top rack isn't getting clean but the bottom rack is fine. Is that the wash pump?
It's the signature symptom of a weakening wash pump, yes — but check two cheaper things first. The upper wash manifold and the middle spray arm are fed last and at the lowest pressure, so they are the first zones to suffer when pump output drops. However, a clogged filter screen or a spray arm with blocked ports will starve the upper rack the same way. Pull the lower spray arm and filter, rinse them under hot water, poke a toothpick through any blocked spray ports, and run a cycle. If the top rack is still dry or dirty after that, the variable pump is losing pressure and should be replaced.
What does "variable" mean on this pump, and does it matter?
It matters a great deal. A variable-speed pump lets the control board change pump speed during the cycle — higher pressure for heavy soil, lower for delicate loads, and different speeds when directing flow to different spray zones. A fixed-speed pump cannot do that. This is why you cannot substitute a standard circulation pump from another GE platform even if it physically resembles this one: the control board expects a variable-speed motor and will not drive a fixed-speed unit correctly.
The dishwasher is making a loud grinding noise. Do I need the whole pump?
Not always — check for foreign objects first. Glass chips, fruit pits, bones, and hard plastic bits routinely get past the filter and rattle inside the pump housing or wedge against the impeller. Remove the filter assembly and inspect the sump thoroughly with a flashlight. If the sump is clean and the noise is a steady hum or grind that rises with the wash cycle, the pump's motor bearings are worn and the complete kit is the correct repair. Bearing noise does not improve on its own and usually precedes a shaft seal leak.
I found water in the pan underneath the dishwasher. Could the pump cause that?
Yes. When the pump's shaft seal wears out, it weeps water down onto the base pan during every wash cycle. GE dishwashers have a flood switch in that pan, so the machine will eventually detect the water and shut itself down mid-cycle or refuse to start. Before ordering, confirm the water is coming from the pump and not from a loose hose clamp, a cracked sump, or the door gasket — dry the pan completely, run a short cycle, and watch where the first drops appear.
Does this kit include everything, or do I need to reuse parts from the old pump?
The kit ships with the wash pump assembly and its integrated wiring harness, so you will not need to cut, splice, or transfer the electrical connector from your old pump. You will reuse your existing hoses and clamps. Inspect the sump gasket while the pump is out and replace it if it looks hardened, flattened, or nicked — a tired gasket is a common cause of a "new pump that still leaks."
What's the difference between WD26X25103 and WD26X22789?
They are the same pump across production revisions. WD26X22789 was the earlier number and WD26X25103 is the current GE part number that supersedes it. If your dishwasher's parts diagram shows WD26X22789, this listing is the correct replacement — order it with confidence. The additional cross-references (AP6973120, PS12730515, EAP12730515) are catalog identifiers used by various parts distributors for the same kit.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original variable-speed motor profile, impeller geometry, flow rate, sump mounting interface, and harness connector of the pump originally installed in your dishwasher, which is important on this platform because the control board is calibrated to drive a variable-speed pump.

XPARTCO W10721967 Washer Drive Clutch Kit
The XPARTCO W10721967 is an aftermarket replacement drive clutch kit — often called a "splutch" kit — for Whirlpool-built top-load washers. This assembly sits at the base of the transmission and works together with the mode shift actuator to control how power reaches the washer: during agitation, the clutch engages to drive the washplate back and forth, and during spin, it locks up to spin the inner wash basket at full speed. The name "splutch" comes from what it actually is — part spring, part clutch — and that spring-loaded design is what lets the same assembly smoothly transition between the gentle agitate motion and the much more forceful spin cycle.
This is a complete 6-piece kit: spring, clutch housing, cam ring, basket drive gear, drive pulley, and mounting nut, so you're replacing the entire wear-prone assembly at once rather than chasing individual worn components. Over time the clutch's friction surfaces glaze over and wear down, the cam ring's engagement points round off, and the spring loses tension — all of which produce the same telltale complaint: a loud grinding, clicking, or clunking noise during agitation or spin, sometimes alongside a washer that spins weakly, agitates but won't spin, or runs hot and starts to smell from the friction of a slipping clutch. It directly replaces AP5951296, W10006352, W10006353, W10006354, W10006356, W10006382, W10239973, W10315818, W10326374, W10536113, W10721967VP, W10818965, W11396423, 3319979, and PS10057144.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO W10721967 Washer Drive Clutch Kit fixes Whirlpool-built top-load washers with loud grinding, clicking, or clunking noise during agitation or spin, a washer that agitates but won't spin, weak or no spin, an overheating smell, or a drum that doesn't spin the pump properly. Complete 6-piece "splutch" kit — spring, housing, cam ring, basket drive gear, pulley, and nut. Replaces AP5951296, W10006352, W10006353, W10006354, W10006356, W10006382, W10239973, W10315818, W10326374, W10536113, W10721967VP, W10818965, W11396423, 3319979, PS10057144. Often replaced together with the drive belt, since both wear on a similar schedule and share the same teardown.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Loud grinding, clicking, or clunking noise during agitation or spin
Washer agitates normally but won't spin, or spins very weakly
Drive pump doesn't rotate properly, leading to slow or incomplete draining
Washer stops agitating partway through a cycle

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer And Shut Off Water Before Starting — Tip Onto Its Back Or Front With Care Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker, and close the water supply valves before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access is from underneath the washer: remove the inner wash basket first (this typically requires a large basket-hub or spanner tool and applying steady upward pressure to break the basket free from the drive hub), then carefully tip the washer onto its back or front, protecting the top and any control panel with a blanket or padding as you lay it down. Photograph the belt and pulley arrangement before disconnecting anything. Remove the drive belt from the motor pulley, then remove the mounting nut and pull the old clutch/pulley assembly off the transmission shaft — a puller tool can help if it's seized. Install the new W10721967 assembly onto the shaft in the same orientation, torque the mounting nut to the manufacturer's specification, and reinstall the drive belt, checking that it seats correctly in the pulley grooves. Carefully stand the washer back upright, reinstall the wash basket, and reconnect it to the drive hub. Restore water and power, then run a full test cycle through agitate and spin, listening for the grinding or clicking noise that prompted the repair. Tools needed: basket-hub removal tool or spanner wrench, socket set, 13mm socket, 5/16" nut driver, pliers, work gloves, and a helper to assist with tipping the washer.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does "splutch" mean, and why is it sold as one kit instead of individual parts?
"Splutch" is shorthand for spring-clutch — the assembly combines a spring-loaded clutch mechanism with the drive pulley and gear that together control agitation and spin. Whirlpool sells this as a single kit because the individual components wear together and interact closely; replacing just the pulley while leaving a worn cam ring or a fatigued spring in place often means the noise or slipping symptom returns quickly. Replacing the complete kit resolves the failure at its actual source.
My washer agitates fine but won't spin. Is this the clutch?
It's one of the most common causes of exactly that symptom. The clutch has to lock up firmly to transfer full power into spinning the basket; if its friction surfaces have worn down or glazed over, it can still engage well enough for the lighter agitation motion but slip under the higher torque demand of spin. If you hear grinding or clicking specifically as the washer transitions into spin, that reinforces the clutch as the likely cause.
Should I replace the drive belt at the same time?
It's worth strongly considering. The belt and clutch wear on a similar schedule and share the same teardown — you're already tipping the washer over and removing the belt to access the clutch, so replacing a belt that's showing wear at the same time saves you from repeating the whole disassembly again in the near future. Inspect the belt for glazing, cracking, or fraying while it's off and replace it if it shows any of those signs.
The washer smells hot or burnt. Is that dangerous, and does it point to this part?
A worn clutch that's slipping generates friction heat, which can produce a warm, slightly burnt smell — this is a real symptom of clutch wear and not something to ignore, since continued operation in that state accelerates wear on the clutch and can stress the drive motor. If you notice this smell along with weak or absent spin, stop using the washer and address the clutch before running further loads.
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 spring tension, cam ring engagement geometry, pulley dimensions, and mounting configuration of the original W10721967 clutch kit used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Amana, Crosley, Roper, and Inglis top-load washers.
