Whirlpool WPW10178988 Genuine OEM Top Load Washer Rotor Position Sensor Replacement Part - Replaces W10137685, W10178988

This Top Load Washer Rotor Position Sensor communicates the position of the tub's rotor to the control board during the washing cycle. If the appliance's motor isn’t working properly to spin the wash tub or if your washer displays an error message, replacing the rotor position sensor may alleviate these issues. To access the part, tilt the washer back and let it rest on a supportive surface, then tape the lid down. You'll need to remove the rotor and rotor stator at the bottom of the machine. The sensor is attached to the top of the stator. Replacing this part requires basic hand tools, such as a multi-screwdriver and needle-nose pliers, along with some disassembly of the appliance and novice repair experience. Before installing this high-quality and easy-to-install replacement part, remember to unplug the washer or shut off the household circuit breaker to ensure safety. Also, make sure you turn off the hot and cold water supplies. Helpful Tip: We also recommend using affresh® Washing Machine Cleaner Tablets* (item W10135699) once a month to help reduce odor-causing residue that can build up in your washing machine's drain without proper care. *affresh® brand products are owned and distributed by Whirlpool Corporation.
