Genuine OEM WH23X10040 Washer Drain Pump
The WH23X10040 is a genuine OEM drain pump from GE for GE and Kenmore laundry centers, the stacked washer and dryer units. The drain pump removes water from the washer tub during the drain and spin portions of the cycle. When it clogs, wears out, or fails, the washer may leave water in the tub, stop mid-cycle, drain slowly, or make unusual noise while draining.
This is a genuine OEM part, not an aftermarket equivalent, so the fit and operation match the original pump. Retailers rate it as a moderate DIY repair, and reviewers report roughly 15 to 30 minutes, using pliers, screwdrivers, and a socket set.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power and Expect Water Unplug the laundry center and turn off the water supply before starting, and shut off the gas supply first on gas models. Wear work gloves. Put towels and a shallow pan under the work area, since some water will remain in the pump and hoses. Following your model's service guide, remove the panel needed to reach the pump, note how the wiring connector and hoses are attached, and disconnect them. Remove the old pump, fit the new one in the same position, and reattach the hoses and wiring. Replace the panel, restore power and water, and run a drain cycle while checking for leaks. Inspect the hoses and clamps while you are there and replace any that are worn.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer won't drain. Is this the part I need?
A failed or clogged drain pump is a common cause. Before replacing it, check the drain hose and the pump for a clog from a sock, coin, or lint. If the path is clear but the pump hums, grinds, or doesn't run, replacing it should fix the problem.
Is this pump for any GE washer?
No. Retailers list it for GE and Kenmore laundry centers, and GE uses other drain pump numbers for its other washers. Check your model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team, before ordering.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part from GE Appliances, not an aftermarket equivalent.
Will this fit my laundry center?
It is listed for many GE and Kenmore laundry centers, but the model list above is only a sample. Match the number on your old pump or parts diagram, or contact our support team with your model number and we'll confirm fit before you order.

XPARTCO 280187 Washer Drain Pump Assembly
The XPARTCO 280187 is an aftermarket replacement drain pump assembly for Whirlpool-built front-load washers sold under the Whirlpool, Kenmore, Kenmore Elite, Maytag, KitchenAid, and Amana names. The drain pump pushes water out of the tub through the drain hose at the end of the wash and rinse stages. When it clogs, wears out, or seizes, the washer can stop with water still in the drum, throw drain errors, stop before the spin cycle, leak, or make loud humming or grinding noises.
This is a complete drain pump assembly, including the pump motor and housing, so it replaces the whole unit rather than just an internal part. The pump sits at the base of the washer behind the lower front panel, and the swap typically takes 15–30 minutes with common hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power and Expect Water Unplug the washer and turn off the water supply before starting. Remove the lower front panel to reach the pump at the base of the washer, then drain any residual water into a shallow pan or with a wet/dry vacuum, using the drain hose or the small drain cap if your model has one. Disconnect the wiring harness from the pump, then loosen the clamps holding the hoses and pull the hoses off. Remove the pump's mounting screw and take out the old pump. Fit the new pump in the same position, reattach the hoses with the clamps (replace worn clamps if needed), and reconnect the wiring harness. Check that the pump and hose connections are secure, replace the front panel, restore power and water, and run a drain cycle while checking for leaks. Common tools include a nutdriver or Torx driver, screwdrivers, and pliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer won't drain. Is this the part I need?
A failed or clogged drain pump is one of the most common causes. Before replacing it, check the drain hose and the pump filter for a clog, such as a sock or coin. If the filter is clear but the pump hums, grinds, or doesn't run, replacing the pump should fix it.
Does this include the pump motor?
Yes. This is the complete assembly, with the pump motor and housing.
My old pump is marked 285998, 8181684, 8182819, or 8182821. Will this work?
Yes. All of those are earlier Whirlpool numbers for this pump, and 280187 is the current number.
Will this fit my top-load washer?
It is intended for front-load washers. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure, and we'll confirm before you order.
Is this an OEM part?
No. This is an XPARTCO aftermarket replacement built to match the Whirlpool 280187. If you prefer a genuine OEM pump, contact us.

WH13X26535 Genuine OEM GE Washer Water Valve
The WH13X26535 is a genuine GE OEM water inlet valve assembly for GE top-load washers, and also fits select Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café models. This valve controls the flow of hot and cold water into the tub during the fill portion of the cycle, ensuring each wash uses the correct amount of water at the right temperature blend. It's housed in durable gray plastic.
Common failure causes include mineral or sediment buildup inside the valve body, a burned-out internal solenoid coil, and general wear over years of use — five years is a commonly cited service life before this valve starts to show problems. A failing valve produces a clear set of symptoms: the washer not filling properly, water continuing to fill or drip even when the washer is turned off, or leaking near the valve area. It directly replaces AP6892695, WH13X24386, 4931303, PS12726769, WH13X24392, WH13X26535-25PK, EAP12726769, and PD00052736. As a genuine OEM part, the WH13X26535 is manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
Quick Answer
The WH13X26535 Genuine OEM GE Washer Water Valve fixes GE top-load washers that aren't filling properly, are overfilling, or have water slowly dripping into the tub even when the washer is off. Housed in gray plastic. Replaces AP6892695, WH13X24386, 4931303, PS12726769, WH13X24392, WH13X26535-25PK, EAP12726769, PD00052736. This replacement valve does not include a thermistor or gasket — if your old valve has a thermistor mounted in front of the solenoids, you'll need to transfer it (with its gasket) to the new valve. Also not the same as the similarly-numbered WH13X26534, which is a separate valve for other GE/Hotpoint models.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer not filling with water properly
Washer overfilling
Water slowly dripping or leaking into the tub even when the washer is turned off
Leaking near the valve connections
No hot water reaching the tub, or no cold water reaching the tub
Cycle stalling at the fill step and never advancing to wash
Cross Reference Information
Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item.

Compatibility
This water valve is compatible with select GE top-load washers, and also fits select Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café washers built on the GE platform, spanning model series GTW460, GTW465, GTW485, GTW490, GTW500, GTW525, GTW540, and VTW540, including specific model numbers such as 5TW4207ST0WS, 5TW4307SW0WS, ETW485ASW0WB, GTW460AMJ0WW, GTW460AMJ1WW, and GTW460AMJ2WW.
Note — thermistor transfer required, and not the same as WH13X26534: This valve does not include a thermistor or the rubber gasket that seats it. If your original valve has a thermistor mounted in front of the solenoids, you must transfer that thermistor and its gasket onto this new valve during installation. Separately, this part is not the same as the similarly-numbered WH13X26534, a distinct valve used on other GE/Hotpoint models with its own cross-reference set (PS12726768, AP6891106). Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Shut Off Water Supply And Unplug Washer Before Starting — Watch For The Thermistor O-Ring Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker, and shut off both hot and cold water supply valves before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access is typically behind the front control panel or top of the cabinet, depending on your model. The valve assembly is usually held in place with a metal plate and two screws. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. If your old valve has a thermistor (temperature sensor) mounted in front of the solenoids, it fits into a small hole in the bracket and uses an O-ring seal that's known to degrade and leak over time — this new valve does not include one, so you'll need to carefully transfer the thermistor and its gasket from the old valve to the new one. Disconnect the electrical connector and outlet hoses from the old valve, remove its mounting screws, and pull it free. Transfer the thermistor and gasket to the new WH13X26535 if applicable, then install it in the same position, reconnect all outlet hoses to their original positions, reconnect the electrical connector, and secure the mounting screws. Reattach the hot and cold supply hoses, tightening securely. Restore the water supply and check every connection for leaks before restoring power. Run a full test cycle across a few different temperature settings to confirm each fill function works correctly with no leaking. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this valve come with the thermistor?
No. This valve no longer comes with the rubber gasket or thermistor that some GE washers use, mounted directly in front of the solenoids. If your old unit has one, you'll need to remove it from the old valve, along with its gasket, and transfer it onto this new valve during installation.
Water has been slowly leaking into my tub even when the washer is off. Is that this valve?
Yes, this is a documented cause. One customer traced over a year of slow leaking directly to this valve's thermistor O-ring, which is known to degrade over time and let water seep through even when the washer isn't running. Replacing the valve (and transferring a good thermistor and gasket if your model uses one) resolves this type of slow leak.
Is this the same as WH13X26534?
No, these are two separate GE valve part numbers with different cross-reference sets, despite the similar numbering. Always confirm the exact part number from your washer's parts diagram or the sticker on your old valve rather than assuming based on a close number match.
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 solenoid design, housing, and connection type of the water inlet valve originally installed in your washer.

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.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Violent shaking or vibrating during the spin cycle
Loud banging, thumping, or clunking noise during spin
Washer "walking" across the floor during the spin cycle
Outer tub hitting the sides of the cabinet during high-speed spin
Spin cycle errors caused by excessive tub movement triggering the imbalance sensor
Visible oil leak, broken mount, or collapsed shock absorber body
Washer repeatedly pausing spin cycle and redistributing the load without resolving the vibration
Replaces Part Numbers
This shock absorber directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers:
WP8182703, 8182703, 1173231, 8181646, EAP11745030, AWP48892, PD00003153, AP6011831, PS11745030.
If your part number is not listed above, contact our support team before ordering and we will verify compatibility.
Compatibility
This shock absorber is compatible with select front-load washers from the following brands and series:
Whirlpool front-load washers — GHW and WFW series
Maytag front-load washers — MHWE and MFW series
Kenmore / Sears front-load washers (select Whirlpool-built models)
KitchenAid front-load washers — KHWS series
Amana front-load washers
Jenn-Air front-load washers
Admiral front-load washers
Roper front-load washers
Important: Most compatible models use 4 shock absorbers (2 front, 2 rear). This part is sold individually. It is strongly recommended to replace all 4 at the same time, as the remaining absorbers have experienced the same wear and will fail soon after.
Key Features
Hydraulic dampener that connects the outer washer tub to the base frame — absorbs spin cycle vibration and prevents tub-to-cabinet contact

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.

The assembly contains multiple solenoid-operated valve ports: hot water inlet, cold water inlet, bleach dispenser valve, fabric softener dispenser valve, and jet spray valve — all integrated into a single assembly that connects to the washer's control board via wiring harnesses.
When the water inlet valve fails — or when one individual port fails — the washer may not fill at all, fill too slowly, fill with the wrong temperature, overfill, fail to dispense bleach or fabric softener, or leak from the valve body. The valve solenoids operate at 12V DC. This kit includes the complete valve assembly and two AGM73269501 inlet screens. It directly replaces AJU73213301, 5221EA1008F, 5221EA1008P, AGF76283896, AP6308239, TAW35618287, AH3527446, AJU75152603, EA3527446, PS3527446, and PS12374721. Installs in 15–25 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and turn off both the hot and cold water supply valves before beginning. Pull the washer away from the wall to access the back panel. The water inlet valve assembly is mounted on the upper rear of the washer — the external supply hoses connect to the hot and cold inlet ports. Photograph all wire harness connections and hose routing before disconnecting anything. Before installing, install the new inlet screens (AGM73269501) included in the kit into the hot and cold inlet ports of the new valve. Disconnect the old valve's external supply hoses, internal hoses, and wire harness connectors. Unscrew the mounting screws and remove the old valve. Install the new AJU75152601 valve, reconnect all hoses and wire harnesses in the same positions as documented in your photos, and secure the mounting screws. Reconnect the external supply hoses, restore water supply and power, and run a fill cycle to verify proper filling, confirm all dispenser ports activate at the correct cycle points, and check for leaks. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between AJU75152601, AJU73213301, and 5221EA1008F?
These are all part numbers for the same LG washer water inlet valve assembly used across different production runs. 5221EA1008F was the original part number, AJU73213301 was an updated version, and AJU75152601 is the current part number. All three are interchangeable. If your washer's documentation, parts diagram, or old valve label shows any of these numbers, this replacement is the correct current part to order.
My washer won't dispense fabric softener — is this the right part?
Yes — the fabric softener dispenser solenoid is one of the ports integrated into the AJU75152601 valve assembly. When the fabric softener dispenser fails to activate at the right point in the rinse cycle, it is almost always because the solenoid valve controlling that port has failed. Since it is part of the same multi-port valve assembly, replacing the AJU75152601 resolves fabric softener, bleach, and jet spray dispenser issues in the same repair. Individual ports cannot be replaced — the complete assembly must be replaced when any one port fails.
What are the AGM73269501 inlet screens included in the kit?
The AGM73269501 screens are small mesh filters that install inside the hot and cold water inlet ports of the valve. They trap mineral deposits and debris from the household water supply before they can reach the valve seats and solenoid mechanisms. The kit includes two screens — one for the hot inlet and one for the cold inlet. Installing these fresh screens with the new valve helps extend valve life, especially in areas with hard water. If the old valve failed due to mineral clogging rather than solenoid failure, cleaning the supply hoses before installation is also recommended.
How do I know if the water inlet valve has failed vs. the control board?
You can test the valve solenoids with a multimeter. Disconnect the harness from a solenoid coil and probe both terminals — a working solenoid coil shows a resistance reading (typically 200–500 ohms); an open circuit confirms the solenoid has failed. If all solenoid coils test good but the valve still does not operate, the control board may not be sending the correct 12V DC signal to the solenoids — this requires checking voltage at the solenoid connectors with the washer powered and in a fill cycle, which is a more advanced diagnostic step.
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 from ABS plastic and stainless steel to match the port configuration, solenoid specifications, and dimensions of the original AJU75152601 water inlet valve assembly.

WH02X10363 Genuine OEM GE Washer Hub Nut
The WH02X10363 is a genuine GE OEM hub nut for GE, Hotpoint, and select RCA and Kenmore top-load washers. This nut is what secures the wash basket to the transmission's drive spline, holding the entire tub assembly firmly attached to the drive system. Every time the washer agitates or spins, this single nut is what keeps the basket properly seated and aligned rather than shifting or working loose under that repeated mechanical load.
Over years of use, or from overloading the washer with oversized loads, this nut can loosen or wear enough that the basket no longer sits securely. A failed or loose hub nut typically shows up as a basket that wobbles or feels loose, unusual noise during agitation or spin, or in more advanced cases, a basket that isn't properly engaging with the drive system at all. It directly replaces AP5793681, 3029784, and PS8757009.
Quick Answer
The WH02X10363 Genuine OEM GE Washer Hub Nut fixes GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore top-load washers with a wobbling or loose-feeling basket, unusual noise during agitation or spin, or a basket that isn't securely engaging with the drive system. Replaces AP5793681, 3029784, PS8757009. This nut requires a very specific torque — GE's own guidance calls for a 90 ft-lb torque-limiting extension and a 1-5/16" (33mm) impact socket. Using a standard impact wrench without the torque limiter can damage both the new nut and the transmission.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Wash basket that wobbles or feels loose
Unusual noise during agitation or spin
Basket that isn't properly engaging with the drive system
Missing or broken hub nut
Basket instability that worsens with larger or unbalanced loads

Installation Notes
⚠️ Critical — Correct Torque Tool Required, And This Nut Threads Counter-Clockwise Unplug the washer before beginning. Wear work gloves and safety glasses. Remove the fabric softener dispenser to access the agitator/auger assembly. Use a screwdriver to puncture through the inner shaft of the auger, then twist clockwise until the auger releases — this step can be difficult, and you'll need to hold the basket steady to keep it from rotating while you work. Lift the auger out. Remove the 11mm bolt underneath, then lift out the base assembly to expose the hub nut. Per GE's own guidance, removing and installing this nut requires a 90 ft-lb torque-limiting extension (GE part WX05X10028) along with a 1-5/16" (33mm) impact socket (GE part WX05X10022). Using a standard impact wrench without the torque limiter risks over-torquing, which can damage both the new nut and the washer's transmission. Unthread the old 33mm hub nut — this can also be difficult, so be patient and keep the basket from rotating. To install the new WH02X10363, thread it on going counter-clockwise, since this nut is reverse-threaded — the opposite direction of a standard nut. Align the base with the spline shaft, set it into position, and reassemble in reverse order: reinstall the 11mm bolt, reinstall the auger, and reattach the fabric softener dispenser. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the basket is stable with no wobble or unusual noise. Tools needed: impact driver or wrench with 90 ft-lb torque-limiting extension, 1-5/16" (33mm) deep well or impact socket, 3/8" to 1/2" adapter, 11mm socket, Phillips screwdriver, work gloves, safety glasses.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I really need a special torque tool, or can I use a regular impact wrench?
GE's own manufacturer guidance is explicit on this point: a 90 ft-lb torque-limiting extension must be used when removing or installing this hub nut to prevent damage to the nut and the transmission from over-torquing. A standard impact wrench alone can apply far more force than this nut and the transmission are designed to handle, so skipping the torque limiter risks turning a simple nut replacement into a much larger and more expensive transmission repair.
Which direction does this nut turn to tighten?
This nut is reverse-threaded, meaning it tightens by turning counter-clockwise — the opposite of a standard nut. This is an easy detail to miss if you're not expecting it, and turning it the wrong direction won't seat it correctly. Keep this in mind both when removing the old nut and installing the new one.
My basket feels wobbly. Is this definitely the hub nut?
It's a strong possibility, especially if the wobble has developed gradually or worsened after washing unusually large or unbalanced loads. Since this nut is what holds the entire basket assembly firmly attached to the transmission's drive spline, a loosened or worn nut directly translates into a basket that no longer sits securely.
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 thread design, size, and torque rating of the hub nut originally installed in your washer.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Shut Off Water Supply And Unplug Washer Before Starting — Release The Control Panel Carefully Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker, and shut off both hot and cold water supply valves before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access to this valve is typically behind the front control panel on many models. When removing the front control panel, avoid pulling it straight out too far — slotted tabs on the right side of the panel can break if forced. Instead, pull the panel gently forward, then slide it to the right to release it cleanly. With the panel released, locate the valve and disconnect the hot and cold water supply hoses, keeping a towel handy for residual water. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the electrical connector and the outlet hoses from the old valve, remove its mounting screws, and pull it free. Install the new WH23X29553 in the same position, reconnect all outlet hoses to their original positions, reconnect the electrical connector, and secure the mounting screws. Reattach the hot and cold supply hoses, tightening securely. Reinstall the control panel and any surrounding trim, restore the water supply, and check every connection for leaks before restoring power. Run a full test cycle across a few different temperature settings to confirm each fill function works correctly. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, towel, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I remove the front control panel without breaking it?
Avoid pulling the panel straight out with heavy force — the slotted tabs on the right side of the panel can snap if you pull too far. Instead, pull the panel gently forward first, then slide it to the right to release it from its mounting. This gentler approach avoids the most common way this panel gets damaged during a valve repair.
I've heard this valve sometimes needs replacing again after just a couple of years. Is that normal?
Some owners have reported needing to replace this valve again within a relatively short time, even after a successful repair. While most installations hold up well long-term, if you experience a repeat failure, it's worth double-checking your household water pressure and mineral content, since hard water and high pressure can accelerate wear on any water valve regardless of brand.
Is this the same as WH23X29538? The numbers look almost identical.
No, these are two separate GE valve part numbers with different cross-reference sets, despite the similar numbering. Always confirm the exact part number from your washer's parts diagram or the sticker on your old valve rather than assuming based on a close match, since ordering the wrong one means it won't fit correctly.
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 solenoid design, flow rate, and connection type of the original WH23X29553 valve used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, RCA, Haier, Monogram, and Café front-load washers.
