The Mode Shifter & Shaft Assembly is an OEM replacement part for GE washing machines. It is a mechanical component located inside the washer tub that allows for shifting between agitation, spin, and other cycles. The mode shifter and shaft assembly receive input from the control system to precisely change the operational mode at designated points in the cycle. Causes of a bad mode shifter & shaft assembly include worn out or damaged internal gears, stripped or broken shafts, or a loss of integrity in components that restrict smooth shifting between modes. Symptoms of a bad mode shifter & shaft assembly include: Inability to start or change wash cycles The washer getting stuck in one mode of operation Grinding noises and vibrations during cycle shifts Premature ending of cycles This GE OEM replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
