This Whirlpool Washer Spring (WP22004376) is a genuine part designed specifically for Whirlpool washing machines but is also compatible with GE, Maytag, Admiral, International, Amana, Jenn-Air, Norge, Crosley, Magic Chef, Hoover, and other brands.

Metal springs throughout washing machines provide flexible suspension, sealing force, electrical contacts, and component attachments. Suspension springs isolate vibrations, door gaskets use springs to maintain sealing pressure when closed, and electrical contacts employ springs for reliable connectivity during motion. A missing, broken, or fatigued spring can impair component function, indicating a need for replacement. Properly specified washing machine springs, like this one, provide essential flexible forces critical for smooth operation.

Symptoms of a failing Whirlpool Washer Spring include the drive motor shaking during use, pumps not operating, or the washer being excessively loud during operation. Before purchasing, remember to verify your device's model number for compatibility.
