Replacing a Bearing on a GE Adora Washer

GE Adora washing machines are front-loading models designed for residential or commercial use. The washer tub relies on a bearing to keep the tub properly aligned and balanced. If the bearing is defective or damaged, the wash tub may not spin properly. One possible sign of a faulty bearing is a thumping or squealing sound while a wash cycle is running. Replace the faulty bearing with a new part to keep your GE Adora washing machine working properly.
