140143410060 Genuine Gearbox Assembly 6.4:1 Ratio IND for Electrolux Group Appliances, Replacement Gear Box Assembly

Part 140143410060 is a genuine Electrolux group gearbox assembly with a 6.4:1 reduction ratio, catalogued as the IND version. A 6.4:1 ratio means the input turns 6.4 times for every turn of the output, trading speed for turning force. The catalogue doesn't name the appliance it suits, and gearboxes with other ratios won't run at the right speed, so match the ratio and part number on your old unit.

Signs a gearbox is wearing out

A gearbox takes the fast spin of a motor and steps it down to a slower, stronger output. Inside, gears, bearings and seals do the work, and wear or a leaking seal eventually takes its toll. Typical symptoms are grinding, clunking or whining noises, an output shaft that slips or turns unevenly, oil or grease weeping from the housing, or a motor that runs while the driven part barely moves. Catching a noisy gearbox early can prevent damage to the motor, belt or coupling.

Swapping the gearbox

Disconnect power and, if the appliance has water connections, turn off the taps. Gearboxes are heavy and can hold residual oil, so have rags ready and support the unit as it comes free. Note the position of couplings, belts, spacers and mounting bolts. Fit the new assembly, tension any belt correctly and turn the drive by hand before running it under power.

Questions about this part

Can I use a gearbox with a different ratio?

No. The appliance's controls and motor are matched to the 6.4:1 ratio, and a different gearbox would run the output too fast or too slow. Order 140143410060 if that's the number on your old unit, or check with us through the parts enquiry form.
