Water drains normally but the basket never reaches spin speed — stripped splutch cam splines prevent the clutch from engaging the drive shaft.
Washer fills and cycles through but the wash plate or agitator does not move; the splutch assembly fails to transfer motor torque to the basket drive gear.
Worn or cracked cam ring and housing create grinding, clicking, or rattling sounds from the bottom of the machine during wash or transition to spin.
Basket spins but never reaches full RPM; degraded splutch spring tension or partially stripped gear teeth reduce clutch engagement force.
Slipping splutch components generate friction heat and a rubber-burning odor, especially on heavy or unbalanced loads.





💡 Pro Tip: How to Know Your Splutch Cam Kit Has Failed
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Washer pumps water out but drum will not spin at the end of the cycle
⚠️ Loud grinding, clicking, or rumbling noise from the bottom of the machine during wash or spin
⚠️ Agitator fails to move — washer fills and drains but clothes come out unwashed
⚠️ Burning rubber smell or intermittent spin — splines on the clutch assembly are stripped
Tip the washer onto its front and inspect the splutch cam ring at the bottom of the drive shaft. If the plastic splines are visibly worn, chipped, or the cam ring spins freely without engaging, replace the full kit. Always run a calibration cycle after installation to reset the motor position sensor.
