  • Whirlpool wash plate

    Model- WTW5000DW0
    Problem - washplate vibrates up and down rapidly during agitation sometimes
    Never noticed one doing this. Normal?
    I have been told splutch. I don’t really see that.
    I did change the hub, but not with a new one.
    Comments?

    Hi Rick,

    I saw nothing in the use and care manual about the wash plate moving up and down....just back and forth.
    I would say either the wash plate is loose on the shaft and moving or the gearbox shaft is moving up and down.
    I would not think splutch but more a bad tranny/gearbox

    Around this time in 2020 we couldn't find toilet paper.
    Now we can't afford it!
