General Electric Washer Rod & Spring Assembly Left - White
PartSelect Number PS12343381
Manufacturer Part Number WH16X26911
This is a manufacturer-made suspension rod and spring assembly for your washing machine. This suspension rod is one of four suspension rods that make up the entirety of the inner suspension of your washing machine, and if worn out or damaged, must be replaced immediately. If you hear loud or excessive banging noises from your washing machine, this and/or other suspension rods within the washing machine are worn out. This specific suspension rod is the left assembly, so the parts for the other side of your washing machine will also be required when replacing this one, considering they all wear at a relatively similar rate. This suspension rod assembly is sold individually, so it does not come with any other suspension rods.

Installation Instructions
Lawrence from FREDERICKSBRG, TX
Faild to spin with leavy clothes
Unplugged washer and hoses. Removed 4 screws in back control panel and 4 screws holding control panel down. Drained capacitor and checked that. It was good. Pryed washer top off with screw driver. Used vice grips to remove old and install new spring rods, replacing them one at a time. While lid was off I cut a small diameter pool noodle in half and cut 4 half noodles the size of each side. I unclipped one side of the tub cap and ran an 11" zip tie through the hole in the middle of one side and back up and out where the tub skirt and cap meet, then tied the half noodle to the edge of the tub cap and snapped down cap. Then repeated with the other three sides. I did this so heavier clothes, if they got out of balance, would continue to spin. The noodles keeping the tub from moving too far out of balance. The rod springs helped with lighter loads but still shut down spinning with heavy clothes. The machine always handled heavy clothes for 7 years until the last month or so. If it breaks with the noodles, I'll get another new machine.

General Electric Washer Spring Clutch
The Mode selector failed to properly engage the gears and gears were grinding.
O moved dryer out of area. And then turned off water, disconnected the hoses from wall. Placed hoses including drain hose into 5-gallon bucket and clamped so they would stay. I then moved washer away from wall about 2'. Then tipped it back against wall. Used 2x4 to keep it there as a support. (Doing this allowed me to keep it in the area and not dump water on floor. Then removed the gear guard, gears and mode selector. Reinstalled all parts and packed gears with synthetic grease made for plastic. It is now working like new. Parts were exact match. Took 30 minutes. Also cleaned the dryer vet line while I had it apart. Read more...

General Electric Washer Shock Damper
~Removed front bottom and rear center panel
~Removed broken dampers. Varying difficulty; other components in the way. Used socket to help push pin out with screwdriver and pliers to help remove the pin.
~Installed New Dampers: Used Small (6") crescent wrench for top. Fitting two (2) hands in there, one to hold and one to turn was a challenge for all four (4) dampers. Had to extend a couple to wedge to damper in there to hold the arrow hear flush.
Installing the pins in the bottom was somewhat easier than the top. I broke the retaining pin completely off an old pin to align the new damper to the base mounting hole (hard to see in there). Used Pliers, a long screwdriver and rubber mallet.
Note my situation was in a very small room. So small I had to remove the door to the room so that I could pull the washer out to get behind it. The warnings about sharp edges should not be ignored! Long sleeves (chainmail) and steel fish fillet gloves might help! Read more...
