Shift Actuator

The 120V, 60Hz Top Load Washer Shift Actuator is located at the bottom of the machine and shifts the washer from the wash to the spin cycle. This part has a synchronous motor that shifts the splutch cam ring and monitors the position of the splutch. Replacing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the washer and novice repair experience. You must unplug the washing machine or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance before installing this part. Also make sure you turn off the hot and cold water supplies. Helpful Tip: We also recommend using Affresh® Washing Machine Cleaner Tablets* (item W10135699) once a month to help reduce odor-causing residue that can build up in your washing machine's drain without proper care. *Affresh® brand products are owned and distributed by Whirlpool Corporation.
