⚙️ About these part numbers. These are the OEM part numbers for the GE GTW585BSVWS at the time of writing. Manufacturers supersede part numbers over time, and some parts split by serial-number range — the same model built two years apart can take a different pump. Always check the number against the full model and serial number on your machine’s tag before you order, and buy from a supplier who accepts returns on the wrong part. Not sure? A local appliance repair pro will confirm the right part in a two-minute phone call — and often has it on the van.

Tech notes

Deep-fill top-loaders let small items over the tub rim — sudden drain failure after a socks load means check the pump inlet first.
