The pump filter leaked after cleaning it out. Would work with teflon tape, but wanted to see if a new part would eliminate the need to wrap it every time.
Unscrewed the old part; screwed in the new part and said a quick prayer - LOL! The part worked great, but I wanted to mention how quickly I received the part! I would definitely order from this company again!
followed instructions on video , when part was delivered I had washer fixed in about 1/2 hour, very easy to fix . Wife is happy and I saved a lot of money. Thank you partselect.com
Replace both bearings and seal also replace spider gear due to the bearing seal surface damage,also replace drum gasket and door gasket and all shock absorber.The clean up two more time then the repairs did.
Slide out double stack unit, take the back off, stand on my head and reach in to remove hose clamo off pump hose. slide new hose on and clamp, but back on, and slide washer/dryer stack back in to place.
You have to take the back plate off the machine.The hose is all the way up front on the bottom right hand side.It has a spring clamp on it.You have to turn the hose to reach the clamp.After that the job isn't that bad.
After reading thru previously posts by other people, I started: 1) Took pictures of inside door, the hook that involve with the handle and the hinge. So they would be very helpful as needed later. 2) Removed the whole door from the combo and lied it down, 3) Disassembled the door and took a few more pictures, 4) Replaced the handle, 5) Took a look at the picture of the hook in (1) then jammed the hole with a piece of card board that cut to fit the hole. Used tape to secure the card board. Made sure the hook was secured/tighten. (This step is very important because it will make the spring works with the handle properly later!) 6) Reassembled the door, 7) Removed the card board from the hole in step (5). If the hook was tighten as before you start, it will be ok. Meaning the spring was resting properly on the inner door behind the handle (If the hook is not tighten then you have to redo steps (3), (5) and (6) again), and 8) Made sure the handle and the hook were working properly. I think If you follow the steps above it will be easier and faster to replaced the handle!
I took the washer completely apart and ordered any parts that looked worn and put it back together. It’s working like new and will last for a few years
Removed the door by undoing two hex nuts. Then removed the plastic cover over the glass and attached to the metal door frame. Broken part easily came out. But putting back together took two phone calls to you and finally getting the video from you that showed that the tension on the door spring was induced by the attachment of the outer plastic piece. The the spring worked as it should and I could easily return the door to it's place on the machine. I now know how to fix this when it breaks the next time.
My husband couldn't fix it. We called our Handiman/repairman. He had a difficult time and took 2 hours. $197.00 charge. This handle does work better than the original.
It's easy, I removed the two bolts that hold the door hinge on, placed the door on a protective surface, removed the screws that hold the cover on, remove the cover, take the old handle and spring out , replace with the new part and reverse the assembly.
disasemble the whole mashine... split outer tank...pound out old bearings... press in new... reassemble.... look for leaks... repair man estament..$900...cost me less than 100.. took 4 hours

blown out front and back bearings on front loading washing machine
took lid off of washer (slides back, not pry) and had to dismantle from springs, rubber around door and pistons on bottom. also had to disconnect from electrical plugs and took out dispenser drawer and all hoses. also have to take off magnetic piece devices from off back of drum. mark everything before dismantling with a black permanent marker so you will know what went where when putting back together and what pieces were facing up,top, etc. once get everything freed up, entire tub pulls up out of the washer. get old shot bearings out of drum, but be careful not to beat on it too much so that you don't damage the shaft or "oblong" the tub, etc. ordered parts that arrived in about 2 days. to put new bearings back in, get large washers -one for front and one for back -same size as the bearings so you will have equal pressure coming from front and back, put a long bolt thru the holes in the bearings with one of the large washers on each end. put a nut on the end of the bolt and begin to tighten. this will pull the bearings together back into their positions without ruining them and gives you equal pressure all around. be careful when you get them tight, they will fit snugly back into place. put it all back together carefully, just like you took it apart. if you labeled everything, you should have no problem putting the puzzle back together. before putting the tub pieces back together, i ran a bead of silicone caulk to prevent leaks. started it back up and runs great! fixed it for total of $72 (including shipping charges), which is a lot cheaper than buying a new washing machine. it is tedious and somewhat challenging, but if you are in any way mechanical, you shouldn't have any problems.
