Signs of a worn lower bearing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lower bearing supports the shaft that drives the wash action, keeping it centred as it turns. As it wears, you'll hear rumbling, grinding or a high pitched whine, especially on spin. Other signs include play or wobble in the shaft, rusty streaks below the machine and water leaking from the base, as failed bearings often go hand in hand with a worn seal. Left too long, a dry bearing can damage the shaft and gearbox, turning a moderate repair into a costly one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux group part 4055578738\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBearing size 25mm x 52mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso listed as 0542250064\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits a large range of Simpson and Westinghouse washers on file\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBearing size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm x 52mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting the lower bearing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBearing replacement is an advanced repair that usually means stripping the machine down to the transmission or tub, so many owners leave it to an appliance technician. Unplug the washer and turn off both taps first. Replace the matching seal at the same time, press the bearing in squarely using the right tools rather than a hammer, and check the shaft turns freely before reassembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I find my Simpson or Westinghouse model number?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLook for the label on the back of the machine or under the lid.
