Common failure areas on this model

The confirmed parts above group into a handful of failure areas. Here is what each points to and how to check it before you order anything.

Suspension and tub hardware

Symptom: Excessive vibration, banging, or the machine "walking" during the spin cycle.

Check: Check that all leveling legs are actually contacting the floor, then inspect the suspension rods or springs for wear or a broken mount point.

Parts in this group on A16CM: WP60A57420 (Agitator Drive Shaft Seal).

Storage, trim and cosmetic hardware

Symptom: A cracked shelf, broken door bin, worn hinge, or missing trim piece -- cosmetic and storage wear rather than a functional breakdown.

Check: Match the physical dimensions and mounting tabs of the old part before ordering; these pieces are often model-specific even between visually similar models.

Parts in this group on A16CM: WP22001619 (Air Tube for Tub Fill Volume), WP22213057 (Injector Sleeve Bracket - Side Mounting), WP22001650 (Spring Retaining Clip), 202718 (Tension Springs -Set of 2), 205000 (Glide and Spring Kit).

Drive system (belts, pulleys, motors)

Symptom: A drum or tub that won't turn, a burning-rubber smell, or a loud thump or squeal during a cycle.

Check: With power off, turn the drum or tub by hand -- resistance or grinding points to the motor or a bearing, and a cracked, glazed, or snapped belt is visible once the cabinet is open.

Parts in this group on A16CM: 12112425 (Belt Kit), 12002351 (Drive Motor - One Speed - 120V), 2301530 (Transmission Drive Pulley).

General hardware and mounting parts

Symptom: A small mechanical or mounting part has failed, cracked, or gone missing.

Check: Compare the physical shape and mounting points to the original piece, and confirm the exact part number against your model plate before ordering.

Parts in this group on A16CM: WPY056016 (Center Seal Grease - 4 oz.), WPY015666 (Center Seal Retaining Washer), WPW10548433 (Clamp), 203956 (Damper Pad Kit), WP211949 (Eyebolt Nut), WPY055980 (High Temperature Adhesive - 2oz.), WP22003555 (Lock Washer for Stop Lug), WP211232 (Outer Tub Clamp Seal), WP213045 (Outer Tub to Pump Hose), WP215120 (SEAL FOR I), WP210286 (Seal), 2040130 (Tub Bearing Kit), W10175939 (Tub Bolt), WP212716 (Washer Lid Bumper), W11129403 (BOLT), WP213013 (Injector Hose), WP211089 (LUG- STOP), WP213015 (Plastic Injector Nozzle), WP22003441 (Rear Bearing), WP216201 (Rubber Injector Valve).

Door, lid switches and latches

Symptom: The washer won't start, or it stops mid-cycle as soon as the lid is opened.

Check: Listen for an audible click when the lid closes. No click, or a visibly cracked plastic tab on the latch, points to this part.

Parts in this group on A16CM: WP213720 (Lid Switch Actuator Spring), WP211726 (Washing Machine Lid Hinge Ball).

Water inlet and drainage

Symptom: A washer that won't fill, fills slowly, won't drain, or leaves standing water in the tub.

Check: For fill problems, check the inlet valve's screen filters for sediment. For drain problems, check the pump for a jammed object and confirm the drain hose isn't kinked or looped too high.

Parts in this group on A16CM: 76660 (Siphon Break Kit), 205613 (Water Inlet Valve).

Before you buy

Match A16CM exactly against the model and serial plate on the appliance itself before ordering anything — a single mismatched character can point to a different production run with different parts. Then check the part number printed or stamped on the part you are replacing against the part numbers in the table above; the printed number is the most reliable way to confirm fitment when a model has gone through multiple production runs. RepairKitHub does not sell parts directly — every part link above routes to an Amazon search for that part number so you can compare current listings and sellers yourself.

How to confirm this is your model

On most washers, the model and serial plate sits under the lid or on the back panel. Match every character exactly, including letters and dashes at the end — appliance model numbers often have similar prefixes but different suffixes for different production runs.
