W11393685 for Whirlpool Washer Gearcase W11455453, W10811956, W11134159, W10447976, W10868473

Install went well. Product is working great. No more sequel from the washer.

This was not the easiest to replace, but with two people it is possible. Don’t forget to get the spanner wrench, it is a must.

Used to replace original in Kenmore Series 600 machine that was making loud grinding noise. New part seem to work well. Needed to be a bit forceful with the grounding screw and the screw to hold plastic guard. Now much quieter, hardly notice machine is running.Watch the youtube videos on what to do to replace. Be aware that removing the original may be much more difficult than what one sees in those videos.

Much harder to find youtube for this style.The tub has to come out, and mine was a MUTHA! The agitator does not have easy way to pull on it so when the bolt comes out it has to be massaged. I think a mallet on the spindle from underneath is what broke agitator loose for me. My hangup was the hub nut is threaded onto the spindle (not screwed like other models) and it hard to find anything on hand to get this to move within the limited space. Recommend getting the specialty tool. I eventually found a hub socket specialty tool from Ford F-150 bearing hub that I have had for 40 years that fit in the 4 tabs. This is normal threads and not reverse threaded. A blind squirrel finds a nut from time to time! Manufactures schematic that I eventually found on web was helpful. Expect the worst but hope for the best. I used jack and 2x4 method.All the bolts with heads visible in the stater need to come out and stater and black metal plate pull out from the bottom - mine pulled off easily. you have to get a needle nose or screw driver to get the retainer ring off the spindle so the spring loaded hub/gear will come off - retainer ring is made like a key ring so just split it with a small screwdriver or perhaps needle nose and it will open up enough to work it off. Disconnect the wiring harness at the splice plugs and unscrew the ground. The old washer gear case assembly then un-bolts (4 EA and easily visible and accessable) and pulls out. Mine took some rotating and prying but was not a pain.Reassembly is quick and strait forward although I did take the time to clean things up wall and put anti seize on the spindle as I was putting things back together. Repair man would likely not do this cleaning and probably not necessary.

This fit my Whirlpool WTW7500GW model washing machine. The repair was fairly straightforward. There is a very good video on YouTube showing all of the steps necessary to do this. The title is “W10811956 - Replacing your whirlpool washers transmission”A few things this came up and I was able to find solutions for:1. Removing the inner wash plate was very tricky. It’s gets corroded and stuck - and there’s no way to grip it with your hands. I found some tricks on other videos. First, put some CLR in the bolt hole (or something else that will break up rust). Let that sit for 20 min, or as much patience as you have. Now, thread something underneath the wash plate by sliding it around the outside, and working it under the wash plate. You’ll need something sturdy - I used a solid core piece of insulated copper wire. Once threaded underneath, slowly but forcefully work it back and forth while pulling up. Turn 90 degrees, and work some more. Eventually it should come off.2. I could not lift out the inner tub. I even had my wife hold the outer tub while I pulled, and it would not break free from the outer tub. Just continue to the next step. Instead of pulling the tub out, you’ll pull the transmission/gearbox (what you’re replacing) out of the bottom. You can get a much better grip on the transmission. Once the motor/clutch/transmission are all unbolted, it pulls out from the bottom with some muscle. After that, the inner tub can be removed.3. My transmission did not come with some small parts that are connected to the old transmission. You need to remove them from the old transmission and put it on the new one before installing. It’s pretty easy. There’s a spring, an adapter, and a clip holding it on the old transmission. The clip is a little tricky to get off, but I was able to work it off with some needle nose pliers. Get one edge of the clip out of the notch, and then work it in a circle and it comes off.This was a pretty straightforward replacement. Took me about 3 hours, but I cleaned the tubs, and it was my first time. Could probably do in 2 hours if I had to do it again (let’s hope not). Glad I did it myself. My issue was that the wash machine made a loud metal/metal noise during spinning. Now it’s whisper quiet.

Part was correct and install went well. Air hammer was handy to disassemble rusted main shaft.

Seeing as though I am not a mechanical person at all, the part worked perfectly. It was packaged well and arrived sooner than expected which I appreciated since my washer had been out of commission for almost two weeks.

Works great and they sent me a part I needed for free!
