AFH72909001 - Genuine OEM LG Washer Lifter Assembly

AFH72909001 – Genuine OEM LG Washer Lifter Assembly

The AFH72909001 Genuine OEM LG Washer Lifter Assembly is an authentic LG drum lifter/baffle engineered by the manufacturer for reliable performance in compatible LG washing machines. This OEM component restores proper laundry tumbling action, helping ensure effective cleaning cycles and smooth washer operation. Ordering the correct factory‑designed lifter from a trusted Canadian parts retailer ensures you get the right part with confidence and fast nationwide delivery.

Function & Importance of the Washer Lifter

Inside the wash drum, the lifter assembly (also called a drum baffle) is a set of internal plastic fins that help lift, shift, and tumble clothes as the wash basket rotates. Its primary functions are to:

• Promote even distribution of laundry throughout the wash cycle

• Improve agitation and tumbling action, ensuring clothes move through water for a thorough clean

• Help reduce load imbalance, vibration, and thumping during spin

• Prevent clothing from simply sliding around the drum without proper contact with wash water

A worn, cracked, or missing lifter can cause clothing to bunch, snag, or not clean effectively, and can lead to unusual noise during operation. Using a Genuine OEM LG lifter helps maintain the washer’s original performance and longevity.

Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement

You may need to replace the lifter assembly if your washer exhibits any of the following washer‑specific issues:

• Clothes not tumbling properly or remaining soiled after a cycle

• Loud or unusual noise during wash or spin cycles

• Visible cracks, chips, or broken drum fins inside the wash basket

• Load imbalance and excessive vibrating when spinning

• Drum “dragging” or inconsistent movement

Replacing a worn lifter with this OEM part will typically restore proper tumbling and wash performance when these symptoms are caused by a failing drum lifter.

Compatibility Guidance

• Designed specifically for LG washing machines that use this style of drum lifter

• Before ordering, verify the model number on your appliance matches the part requirements

• LG lifter assemblies vary by machine design—checking your model number ensures a precise match
