Part WH1X2026 Drive Belt

Purpose

Transfers motor power to washer basket and agitator.

Details

The WH1X2026 drive belt is a genuine OEM replacement for select GE and Hotpoint washing machines. This durable V-belt connects the drive motor to the transmission pulley, ensuring proper spin and agitation. Over time, belts can stretch, crack, or slip—leading to slow spinning, no agitation, or burning smells during cycles. Replacing the worn belt restores smooth and reliable washer performance.

Included Items

One drive belt (black V-style). Mounting pulleys and hardware are reused from the original installation.
