| SYMPTOMS THIS PART FIXES | |
|---|---|
| Machine bangs or thumps on spin | Worn or collapsed dampers |
| Washer walks across the floor | Dampers no longer controlling drum |
| Loud vibration ramping up to spin | Damper friction lining worn out |
| Drum knocks against the cabinet | Damper failed or detached |
| Machine noisy only on high spin | Dampers past their service life |
Fitting one new damper against one worn damper leaves the drum unbalanced and the new part will fail early. That is why this listing is supplied as a pair. Isolate power and turn off the water before starting, and check your model number against the list above before ordering.
