The Motor Spring is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool top-loading washing machines. This spring applies proper tension to the agitator assembly during wash cycles.
Causes of a bad motor spring can include damage from unintended impacts or fatigue after extended use. Over time, constant movement may cause the spring to weaken.
Symptoms of a bad motor spring include:
- Inadequate cleaning as clothes don't tumble vigorously
- Excessive noise or vibration from the off-balance agitator
- Stalling or failure of the agitator to rotate fully
This OEM Whirlpool replacement is also compatible with some Kenmore, Admiral, Estate, and Roper top-load washer models as well.
