FAQs

This clutch band kit is compatible with a wide range of top-load washers manufactured by Whirlpool, Kenmore, and Maytag. It is designed to fit various models, including those in the MAT14, CAM2742, CAM2752, and CAM2762 series.
This part directly replaces OEM part number W10817888. It also cross-references with several other part numbers, including 3951993, W10817173, 4283279, AP5985204, and PS11723124.
If your washer is failing to spin properly, making loud grinding or squealing noises during the spin cycle, or if the clothes remain excessively wet after the cycle finishes, the clutch band lining may be worn out. These pads provide the necessary friction to engage the transmission; when they wear thin, the clutch slips, resulting in poor spin performance.
The clutch band and lining assembly is a critical component that connects the transmission to the inner tub. It allows the washer to transition smoothly between the agitation phase and the high-speed spin cycle. Over time, the friction pads naturally wear down due to repeated use, which eventually prevents the clutch from gripping the basket drive properly.
Replacing the clutch band requires access to the underside or the transmission area of the washer, which involves removing the cabinet and the drive assembly. While it is a manageable repair for those comfortable with appliance maintenance, it does require basic hand tools and typically takes about 60 to 90 minutes. Always ensure the power is disconnected before beginning any work on your machine.
