12002773 - Genuine OEM Whirlpool Top Load Washer Suspension Spring Set (6/Pack)
The 12002773 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Top Load Washer Suspension Spring Set (6/Pack) is a critical replacement component designed to restore stability and balance in top-load washing machines. Manufactured to exact OEM specifications, this spring kit ensures proper support of the washer tub during operation. Available from Appliance Kingdom, this part ships quickly across Canada, making it a reliable solution for homeowners, landlords, and appliance repair professionals.
If your washer is shaking excessively, making loud noises, or failing to operate smoothly, replacing worn suspension springs is a proven fix that restores normal performance and prevents further internal damage.
Function & Importance of the Suspension Spring Set
This suspension spring set includes six heavy-duty springs that support and stabilize the washer’s outer tub. These springs absorb movement and distribute the weight of the drum evenly, especially during high-speed spin cycles or unbalanced loads.
Their role is essential for:
-
Maintaining washer balance during operation
-
Reducing vibration, noise, and movement
-
Supporting proper agitation and spin performance
Using a Genuine OEM spring set ensures the correct tension, length, and durability required for safe operation. Inferior or mismatched springs can lead to excessive wear, unstable operation, and even damage to internal components.
Common Symptoms of a Faulty Suspension Spring
If your top-load washer is showing any of the following issues, this suspension spring set is likely the solution:
-
Washer shakes, vibrates, or “walks” excessively
-
Loud banging or unusual noise during spin cycle
-
Washer becomes unbalanced frequently
-
Poor washing performance or failure to agitate properly
-
Washer may not drain or complete cycles correctly
Will replacing this part fix your issue?
Yes—if your washer is unstable or excessively noisy during operation, worn or stretched suspension springs are a common root cause. Replacing all six springs together is recommended for even wear and optimal performance.
