The Top Load Washer Drive Block connects to the appliance’s inner wash tub and enables it to spin during the cleaning cycle. If your appliance spins slowly and leaves clothes soaked at the end of the cycle or you hear a loud knocking noise during operation, replacing this part may alleviate these issues. Replacing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the appliance and novice repair experience. You must unplug the appliance or shut off the house circuit breaker before installing this part. Also make sure you turn off the hot and cold water supplies. 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.
