Hotpoint Top Bearing Assembly

If your washing machine is making a loud grinding, rumbling, or squealing noise during the spin cycle, it often indicates the bearing assembly is worn out. You can confirm this by manually spinning the drum when the machine is off; if it feels rough or makes a grinding sound, the bearing is likely the culprit.

This is a genuine OEM replacement part designed for specific GE, Haier, and Hotpoint models. Because compatibility varies significantly by serial number, please check your appliance's manual or the model number on the machine's sticker against the part number WE03X25094 before purchasing.

Yes, this part is a direct replacement for the older WE14X22579 assembly. It is designed to fit the same mounting points and restore the original mechanical function of your drum rotation.

Replacing a top bearing assembly is considered a moderate-to-advanced repair. It requires disassembling parts of the washer cabinet and drum housing, so you should feel comfortable using standard tools and following a service manual or repair guide before attempting the installation.

Choosing an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part ensures that the component meets the exact material and engineering specifications of your original machine. This guarantees a precise fit and reliable performance, which is critical for a high-stress component like a drum bearing.
