My machine was wildly out of balance
I followed the online video on the Partselect website to replace the snubber ring on my Maytag Washing Machine. It was a very good video. The video had the same exact model even. The gentleman on the video was awesome! This is my second time using Partselect for a DIY job. I fixed my dryer a few years ago by watching one of your videos and purchasing your parts. I will never call a local repair company again. Half the time the don't even show up and then they charge you an exorbitant markup on the parts, not to mention the labor costs. Of course they never have the part in stock and they always have to order it. I did call around my hometown to different places that sell appliance parts... The all said they would have to order the snubber ring ... none had it in stock. So, I bought the parts from Partselect.com, had them shipped overnight and still saved a bunch of money. After I installed the parts, my machine runs perfectly! It has been about two weeks now and it has not been out of balance a single time. I will definitely be a return customer and I will highly recommend your website to all my friends. Thank you!

Lid hinge pin broke
The videos included in the shipping notification email made the repair a breeze. The only thing not shown was (at least on my washer) that the screws that needed to be removed had torex heads instead of normal slot or phillips heads. Luckily my tool crib had what I needed.

Loud screech at end of each cycle and knocking sound from bearings going out.
Tipped washer backwards and removed belt from all three pulleys. Stood washer upright again and removed back panel around pump(4-screws)Removed drain hose from house drain and emptied excess water in the pump into a bucket. Removed the hoses from the drain pump then removed the three bolts holding the pump in place. Removed damaged pump and replaced with new drain pump. Reassembled in reverse order. Once the pump cover was replaced, tipped machine on its back, replaced the belt onto the three pulleys and promptly returned machine to its upright position and ran a test load of laundry! Success! Works great!

washer leaking from rear
Removed front and rear covers, replaced drive belt, tub hose and pump. simple operation. Washer still has some leakage not as bad as original leak. Think I have main tub seal problem. Going to check all hose clamps and run again. If the main seal is problem I will be forced to buy new as the parts cost and difficulty of replacement will be the important factors.

Loads of various sizes were out of balance during the spin cycle. Had to adjust the wet clothes frequently.
First unplugged washer. Found clips on front of machine and lifted the lid back. Took out two 5/16" screws and removed the front panel. Tilted back the washer slightly and took off the drive belt underneath. Started removing the 6 springs with visegrip pliers that support the tub. Then removed the hose on the back left, no pliers needed. Then used pliers to loosen the clip holding the drain hose on the bottom of tub. Moved the clip down, then took off hose. There will be water in the hose, be ready with towel. Watched the video for snubber installation.

Bad bearing on pump
Lay the washer on it's side and remove the drive belt. Set back upright. Pry top cover up. Use a small flat bar and try not to damage the porceline. Two hex head screws (one on each side by the tub)holds the frone panel on. Remove those. Panel can now be tilted forward and removed. Pump is on right side. remove the two hoses and save the clamps. remove the three hex head screws holding the pump. Install the new pump and reassemble. Pretty easy.

change out pump bearing wore out
Unhook water lines after shutting off water, unplug power cord.Then move washer out into open space for easy access. Used flat tip driver to push in the spring clip to open the top of washer. Flip top up and had wife tilt the washer back. Once bottom is exposed took belt off the motor pulley. Let washer back down. Use the socket wrench to take out two ( front corners ) screws. Tilt front panel back and lift out off the clips . Water pump is front right corner. Use socket wrench to take out the three screws that form a triangle. Lift out the pump. Have something to catch water from pump . Use pliers to remove the two clamps spring from the hoses . Remove both hose from the pump. Then install new pump in the reverse order and close up washer in reverse order and put belt on . Replace washer in it place reinstall water line and lastly the power cord needs tobe pulg in.
