Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Will not agitate
• Spins slowly or the inner tub does not turn

Check Before Replacing

• Disconnect power before access; inspect the belt for cracks, glazing, fraying, stretching, or breakage.
• With power disconnected, check that the belt is properly seated on its pulleys and has not slipped off.
• If the belt is slipping or worn, inspect the idler arm and tension springs for obvious damage, binding, or loss of tension.
• Verify the washer model accepts WP27001006 before ordering or installing; similar symptoms can also originate elsewhere in the drive system.
