Reviews of Whirlpool Washer Motor Coupling # 285753a

New version of Whirlpool Coupling Assembly
Rating by : William R. Thorne,

Don't buy Whirlpool's new coupler Part #285753A with the steel insert!

This latest version coupler has steel inserts imbedded in its 2 plastic sections, the idea
being to make it more reliable. I'm afraid this hasn't been the case in practice, so
avoid this one.

I have two reasons for this. First, they are so tight and hard to drive onto the gearcase
and motor shafts, it's hard to install one without damaging the shafts. And because they
are so tight, removal when they do break can also be very difficult.

Secondly, professional repairmen have started to see them either stripping or rounding off the drive flats on motor
shafts, thereby ruining motors - and that's unacceptable! The idea behind any drive 'weak link'
- belt, coupler, etc - is to slip or sacrificially fail when something goes horribly wrong,
to keep from ruining something more major and expensive.

Having to replace an expensive main drive motor due to a less than $10 drive coupler failure
tells us there's a major problem with this new coupler design with the metal insert. Continue to use Part #285753 (no A) which Amazon sells for a few cents more.

Correct Replacement Part

This the stock replacement part Orderd BY Whirlpool. The Metal Inserts as They may seem stronger are going to cause Rounding of the motors drive shaft and the trannys input shaft. Also they wont fail when they are suposed to. Potentially causing more expensive damage to the trannsmission. Your better off going with the stock design!!! NO A for you!!! If you see "a" at the end of the part number its the metal inserts

Saved $175 by spending $4.98

Priced repair for my Whirlpool washer at $175 (potentially even more if technician had "found" any additional repairs "needed") Went on-line, diagnosed problem and part needed. Watched several on-line videos and "Amazoned" part for best price. Priced from $19 at Sears parts, $11 from several appliance sites to $4.98 (w/free shipping) from this discount site. Ordered on Sunday and received item on Wednesday and repaired washer next day (on Thanksgiving - how appropiate!) Great!
