Frigidaire 5304517318 Washer Transmission Gearcase Assembly

Product Description

The FRIGIDAIRE 5304517318 is a genuine OEM washer transmission, also referred to as a gearcase assembly, designed to transfer power from the motor to the agitator and drum. During the wash cycle, it converts rotational motor energy into the back-and-forth stroke of the agitator. During the spin cycle, it drives the drum rotation. The assembly also supports brake and clutch functions that govern smooth cycle transitions. At 11.80 pounds, this is a substantial mechanical component intended for replacement by an appliance service technician with the appropriate tools and experience.

This transmission is used in laundry center and washer/dryer combo units. It is a direct-fit, genuine OEM part engineered to factory specifications, making it a reliable service replacement when the original gearcase shows wear, noise, or mechanical failure. Compatible brands listed in source data include Frigidaire and Kenmore. The part is sold as a single unit.

Installation Notes

This repair is typically performed by a qualified appliance service technician. Unplug the laundry center or washer/dryer combo from its power source before beginning any disassembly. The gearcase is a central mechanical assembly - surrounding components such as the agitator, basket, and motor coupling will need to be removed to access and replace it. Wear appropriate work gloves during handling due to the weight and mechanical edges of this component.
