Direct Drive Motor Coupling
★★★★★
★★★★★
(95)
Part #285753A
This direct drive motor coupling (Direct Drive Washer Motor Coupling, Motor Coupling, Washer Motor Coupling, Coupling Kit) provides a cushioned connection between the transmission and the motor shaft. It attaches to the direct-drive transmission and the motor shaft. If this part is defective it will affect the agitator in your washer because of its direct connection with the motor. Your washer may not agitate, spin slowly, or not spin at all. The coupling must be replaced when there is no longer a consistent connection between the transmission and the motor shaft. The coupling can wear over time because of its location between two major parts of the dryer. It is subject to material fatigue over time from normal use, or breakage caused by frequent overloading. The part measures approximately 2 inches in diameter, and is constructed of plastic and metal. This model comes in black/white.

Suspension Spring
★★★★★
★★★★★
(4)
Part #WP63907
The suspension spring supports the outer tub and keeps the tub steady during loads that could cause an unbalance. If this part breaks, is worn down or has stretched out and lost its spring, it could cause the load to be off-balance which can lead to excessive shaking, moving, noise, and leaks. For this repair, you will need a 1/4 nut driver, a putty knife, a flat blade screwdriver, and a pair of needle-nose pliers. Disconnect the power supply, fill hoses, and drain hose to give you safe and easy access (have a container nearby for water left in drain hose). This item is sold individually, which is important as you may need to repair multiple springs in your appliance, which carries three suspension springs. As an inexpensive part, we recommend purchasing several at a time, as they can be very useful to have on-hand.

★★★★★
★★★★★

This switch (Lid Switch Assembly With Leads, Washer Lid Switch, Lid Switch Assembly, Washer Lid Switch) tells the washing machine that the lid is closed, which allows the wash cycle to begin. The lid switch mounts to the underside of the cabinet top panel. The plastic on the actuator can become brittle with age and break when the lid is closed roughly. It can also break from the movement of an unbalanced load causing parts of the washer to strike it. This part must be replaced if it is broken and no longer being activated by closing the lid (indicated by the washer not agitating properly, or the machine not detecting the lid is closed). This switch is black plastic with wire leads. It is sold individually.

Is this model a direct drive or belt driven? Our washer has lost power for the spin cycle.
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello Brian, thank you for your question. Your model uses a direct drive motor coupler instead of a belt. The Direct Drive Water Pump is part PS11741239. The Direct Drive Motor Coupling is PS1485646. The Clutch Assembly is PS334641. This part is for large capacity belt drive and direct drive appliances. We have videos of all three on our website. We hope this helps.

Joel - For model number LSR8433KQ0

I ordered the washer direct drive water pump (PS11741239) for my washer because it would not drain. Went to replace it and realized this part is not the problem. When I turn the cycle to a wash setting all I get is a humming noise coming presumably from the motor. It does nothing when I turn it to a spin cycle. Any clue as to what might be wrong with it? Thanks for you help in advance, Joel
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello Joel, thank you for reaching out. Based on the description that you have provided, the most common cause is a broken or worn motor coupler, which connects the motor to the transmission; when it fails, the motor can run and hum but no power is transferred to move the agitator or spin the basket. We would suggest inspecting it, the part number is PS1485646. We hope this information helps!

No movement from Basket & agitator
1124 of 1228 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Jeff from Wayne, NJ
  • Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Pliers, Screw drivers, Socket set
The job looked intimidating but turned out to be very easy.
First take off the water pump by removing the two clips that hold it in place. Place a shallow pan under the pump to catch the water that is in the pump and hoses. Open the hose clamps with a pair of pliers or channel locks (better) and slide the hoses off of the water pum p.
The motor comes off next. Unplug the electrical connector from the motor and two wires from the capacitor. Remove the two screws holding the clamps in place and then pop off the two clamps. You will need to hold up the motor with one hand while you remove the clamps or it will fall to the floor once the clamps are removed.
One piece of the coupling assemble will be attached to the motor and the other will be attached to the gearcase drive shaft. If you want to clean up the mess created by the shredded rubber center piece of the coupling assembly you will have to take off the motor mounting plate. It is held on by two bolts and removing it makes installing the coupling easier but probably not necessary.
Push the back half of the coupling on to the gearcase drive shaft until the shaft is flush with the face of the coupling. Install the new rubber center piece on to the coupling then re-install the motor mounting plate. Install the other half of the coupling on to the motor shaft and lift the motor up to the coupling. You have to rotate the motor shaft by spinning the fan blades until the coupling lines up so you can slide it into the other half of the coupling. Then just reattach the motor, connectors and water pump in the reverse order of disassembly.

washer wouldn't agitate

  • mike from Kent, WA
  • Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Screw drivers, Socket set
First pry off the cap of the agitator. Then using a socket remove the bolt that holds the plastic cup in place. Remove this cup by prying it loose from the two tabs that hold it in place. Once this cup is removed you can get to the broken cogs.
Slip the new cogs into the underside of the cup, and slide the cup back down in the a gitator housing using the slots on the side for a guide. (You may want to remove the entire agitator and assemble everything upside down, then flip it all back over to mount, so the cogs don't fall out).
Tighten the bolt, snap the cap back in place on top of the agitator and your'e done. Easy repair.
