Hello Steven, thank you for your question! If your washing machine is shaking violently, the culprit may be inside. Check to see if the washer is overloaded or if a bulky item is causing it to become unbalanced. If all is well on the inside, it is also possible that the washer is unlevel or unbalanced due to improper installation or uneven floors. Check that all four legs are in contact with the floor or place a leveler on top of the washer. If your washer is old and you hear a loud banging or clanging during the spin cycle, it is possible the shock absorbers or drum bearings have worn out, causing the basket or drum to get out of balance. If the problem persists, you will need to inspect the following parts that may need to be replaced: suspension rods, part number PS12347544, impact absorber, part number PS12349006, and dampening pad, part number PS11746560. Please reach out to customer service if you need help placing an order. Glad to be of help!

Hello Edward, Thank you for your inquiry. Researching the model number that you have provided, while the washer is available separately, the bearing is only available as part of the gearcase. You may also want to check the impact absorbers as well, part# PS11746560. Good luck with your repair.

Hello Pauline, thank you for your inquiry. Follow the given instructions to remove the gearcase: Unplug the unit. Remove the washer motor rotor from underneath the washer and unplug the wires. Remove the screws and dislocate the starter and clutch assemblies. Remove the screws holding the plastic bracket and wire ground bracket. Remove the spiral clip and retainer spring. Unthread the bolts securing the gearcase. Remove the back cover plate and lift the top panel. Remove the tabs on the bottom of the stub ring and dislocate them. Unthread the bolt securing the wash plate with a socket wrench. Remove the wash plate. Remove the spinner nut around the shaft. Now force the old gear case out of the bracket. Insert a new one and repeat the procedure. We hope this solves your problem!

Hi Derrick, thank you for the question. You can verify this by carrying out an inspection test: 1. Begin by unplugging your washer. 2. Remove the cabinet's fastening screws and remove the cabinet itself. 3. Now you will need to locate your gearcase. 4. Once you have located the gearcase, plug your washing machine back in and run a wash cycle to determine if the gearcase is the source of the problem. A faulty gearcase will make strange noises during operation. Use caution when performing this step, as the internal components of your washer are exposed. If the gearcase is noisy during this test, you need a replacement gearcase. Also, the bearing is not available separately but comes as a part of the gearcase, part number PS12741641. You may need a 7/16 socket and a spanner nut wrench for the removal of this part. We hope this information helps!
