This is a replacement suspension spring retainer for your washer. The retainer holds the suspension spring in place while the washer is operating. If you notice movement, or an unusual noise or shaking of your washer when it is in use, it could mean that the suspension spring has been disconnected because of a broken or missing spring retainer. You will find the suspension spring retainer at the bottom of the tub assembly. To replace the retainer, use a pair of pliers to disconnect the suspension spring from the chassis mount to relieve the tension. Then, remove the spring from the retaining clip, and remove the retaining clip from the bottom of the washer. Attach the new retaining clip to the bottom of the washer, reattach the spring, and stretch it slightly so it can connect to the chassis. This part is sold individually.

Can you explain what the retainer, suspension spring, part number wpw10145155 does and where it attaches? Also, how many should there be? I am replacing all the springs and a number of other components on our 15+-year-old washing machine to reduce noise and shaking. But i didn't find any springs that look like the retainer suspension spring. Thanks.

Hi Allan,
Thank you for your question. The suspension spring retainer is located near the bottom of the tub assembly and there should be one of these spring retainers for each of the suspension springs.
I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Washer still shakes vigorously after levelling feet and replacing all springs but saw that there are no suspension spring retainers on our Whirlpool wtw57esvw1. Are these needed? If so, do they attach directly to the frame or the outer spring bracket and is there a specific video for this? How precisely are these attached to the suspension spring?Thank you.

Hello, thank you for your question. Yes, your unit should have one suspension spring retainer for each suspension rod. The retainer holds the suspension spring in place while the washer is operating. If you notice movement, or an unusual noise or shaking of your washer when it is in use, it could mean that the suspension spring has been disconnected because of a broken or missing spring retainer. You will find the suspension spring retainer at the bottom of the tub assembly. To replace the retainer, use a pair of pliers to disconnect the suspension spring from the chassis mount to relieve the tension. Then, remove the spring from the retaining clip, and remove the retaining clip from the bottom of the washer. Attach the new retaining clip to the bottom of the washer, reattach the spring, and stretch it slightly so it can connect to the chassis.I hope this helps!

Removed the washing machine from the wall and found a broken spring on the floor. Began disassembling the unit before accessing your sight. (Later I viewed your video of the more simple dis assembly).Used your parts breakdown to identify the 6 parts I needed (3 springs and 3 retainers),and ordered them. They arrived on time and as per the video, installed them with ease and reassembled the unit. My wife is very happy. Thank you, Rusty
