GE WH49X10042 Washer Agitator Coupling Kit

Restore strong, reliable agitation and bring your washer back to proper cleaning performance with this upgraded coupling kit.

The GE WH49X10042 Washer Agitator Coupling Kit is a genuine OEM replacement designed to connect your washer’s transmission drive shaft to the agitator base. When this part wears out or the internal splines strip, your washer may fill and drain normally but fail to properly move clothes during the wash cycle. This results in poorly cleaned laundry and wasted cycles. Replacing the coupling restores the mechanical link that drives agitation, bringing back the scrubbing motion needed for effective cleaning. Installation is straightforward for experienced DIY users—however, it is important to follow the included instructions and always replace the retaining bolt provided in the kit for proper secure fitting.
