Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Visible water leakage below the tub during agitation or spin
• Water trails or residue around the transmission shaft area
• Brown or oily residue suggesting water may have reached transmission components
• Possible secondary noise or corrosion if leakage has continued

Check Before Replacing

• Unplug the washer before inspection.
• Observe the location and timing of any leak during a short, empty cycle; confirm that the leak originates near the tub/transmission area rather than a hose, pump, tub crack, or drain connection.
• After disconnecting power and water, inspect the exposed seal area for a damaged or worn sealing surface if the washer has already been disassembled.
• Check the shaft area for corrosion, scoring, or excessive play; these conditions can prevent a replacement seal from sealing correctly.
• Do not operate the washer with panels removed or reach into moving components.
