WH12X1001 - GE Washer Capacitor

This GE Washer Capacitor (WH12X1001) is a genuine part manufactured by GE, compatible exclusively with GE washers. It acts as a crucial component in your appliance, storing temporary electrical charges to help start the washing machine motor spinning. Located near the motor, this capacitor provides an extra current surge to overcome the motor's inertia upon startup commands. Once the motor is running, the capacitor discharges its stored power. Symptoms that the capacitor may be failing or broken include difficulty in starting the washer, a humming noise from the motor without spin initiation, or a complete failure to start. To ensure smooth, reliable starts for your washing machine, consider replacing a faulty capacitor with this genuine GE part. Before purchasing, we advise you to check your washer model number for compatibility.
