Sample Model Number Tags
Model numbers can be made up of numbers (1005400, for example) or a combination of letters and numbers (LAT1000AAE). The model number will most likely appear on either a paper sticker or a metal plate. Your appliance's model number tag may look similar to the sample model number tags shown here (model number highlighted in yellow):
This gearcase is a genuine OEM replacement part designed for use in select washing machines from Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Inglis, and Magic Chef. The gearcase plays a crucial role in the washer’s operation, as it drives the agitator and spins the wash basket during cycles. A malfunctioning gearcase can result in issues such as the washer not spinning, excessive noise, or failure to agitate properly. Replacing this component can help restore the washer’s efficiency and performance. Before beginning the installation, unplug the washer and ensure that water supply lines are disconnected. The gearcase is located at the bottom of the washer and is connected to the tub drive assembly, including the shaft, seal, and bearing. To replace it, remove the washer’s outer panels and detach the drive system components, such as the motor and belt or pulley, to access the old gearcase. Once removed, carefully install the new gearcase, ensuring that the shaft and bearings are properly aligned. Secure all components and restore power to test the washer. Since washing machine gearcases may look similar but can have slight variations in size and shape, always verify that this part is compatible with your washer model before ordering.

Popping the breaker
The washer was popping the GFI receptacle..The gear case seal was out. The bearing started to make a noise, and it was leaking.On the stator. It caused it to pop. I ordered the parts. I had two removed the bolt on the agitator.. Remove the gear case and unplug the wires to it from underneath. I then removed the stator. Installed the stand
... Read moreer on the new gear case and started to put it back together. I made sure I put some antiseize on it when I put it together. It was a little hard to take it apart.

During the spin cycle the machine progressively makes a loud grinding/roaring noise and now has began to make a pausing sound while spinning out.
For model number WTW8127LC0
Hello Edgar, thank you for your question. The Gearcase is the cause of a loud grinding/roaring noise most of the time. After removing the 'tub nut' and removing the components on the under-side, gearcase should come out easily. However it it has seized, you may need to hammer it out on the top of the Drive Shaft. Good luck with your repair.

Error code f7e4.
How do I know if it’s the gear case or the clutch that’s the problem? There’s a small spattering of oil on the interior/underneath the washer. Is the control board also at fault with this error code?
For model number MVW7232HW0
Hi Mel, thank you for reaching out. According to our research, the F7E4 error code indicates that the clutch failed to engage the spin basket in the spin mode. We would recommend checking the washer's clutch, part number PS10064562. It spins the basket during the spin cycle. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!
My washer started making a grinding noise, at first it was only when agitating when the wash plate would move in the opposite direction as the tub. It's gotten worse to where it grinds in both directions. I've taken out the wash plate and it's not striped, and nothing is stuck between it and the tub. Would this be the gear case making this noise. Doesn't make any noise during spin cycle
For model number MVW7232HW0

When the washer spins it makes a squeaky/screechy noise and also leaks water
For model number WTW8120HC0
Hi Bill, thank you for the question. Based on our understanding, the squeaking noise and leaking issues could be due to the faulty tub seal and bearing. They come attached with the gear case, part number PS16730208. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

Would the gear case cause the agitator to not move and whine loudly?
For model number MVW7230HW0
Hello Phil, thank you for your inquiry. If the gear case is faulty, it can cause the agitator to not move and make noise. Before replacing the gear case, you may need to check the clutch kit. If it is worn out, you may need to replace it. The clutch kit is part number PS10060062. Glad to be of assistance!
At end of spin cycle machine makes a horrible grinding noise. It only happens @ end of the cycle. Machine works perfectly otherwise. There are no codes displayed. Do we need to replace the gear assembly? Don’t think it’s the clutch because the agitator moves freely.
For model number MVW7230HW0
Hi Rita, thank you for getting in touch. Based on our research, grinding sounds can be due to a worn or rusty drum bearing. The bearing supports the drum and holds it in position while it turns. The drum bearing does not come separately. It comes with the outer tub, part number PS12730826. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope that helps!
During agitation there is a chunking squeak also there is a sticky grease all over the rotor and stator. There is light rust on the shaft area. There are light contact marks on the rotor and stator on one side. From my research it looks like the clutch, seal and bearing are all shot! Is this accurate
For model number MVW7232HW0
Hello Kenneth, thank you for reaching out. You will indeed need to replace the gear case, part number MVW7232HW0. A malfunctioning gearcase can result in issues such as excessive noise, or failure to agitate properly. We will also recommend cleaning the seals and lubricating it again properly. We hope this helps.
