GSSR4170H0WW General Electric Washer - Instructions

The trouble shooting suggested the problem and how to resolve by replacing so did an appliance retail parts place. Both suggested replacing the water level pressure switch. Took only 15 minutes to replace. Machine worked fine with 1st full washing. However, the 2nd full washing the washer would not spin. Went back to the trouble shooting on the computer. Someone suggested the tube from the washer tub to the pressure switch was stopped up with lint. Took hose off and blew into it. Lint came out the washer is working fine.

Placed new knob on washer manually

removed and replaced knob by just pulling old one off and pushing new one on.

I was frantically trying to find a cheap washer to replace the one that "broke". Fortunately, my son's roommate is a maintenance technician. He diagnosed the problem immediately. I googled the issue, found the part, ordered it and received delivery of the part in 3 days. It took all of 5 minutes to replace the part and reassemble the washer. Now on to the 15 loads of laundry that have been stacking up!

This job did not take much longer than 15 minutes if that.1st take the cord or twine and loop it under 2 paddles of the agitator.( there is a small groove under each of the paddles that has enough space to put the cord in) Pull up on the cord to remove the agitator. 2nd. Under the agitator is a bolt that secures the agitator coupling. Remove that bolt. Keep bolt(you may want to replace this bolt if rusted and worn. Mine was still ok so I reused it.) 3rd pull up on Agitator coupling to remove. Teeth were worn on Coupling, So discard. 4th Insert new coupling, replace bolt to secure coupling. finally slide agitator back over coupling till locks back in place. ....Done.

Step one: Order the Belt and the $10.00 tool that fits on the motor sprocket to keep the belt from slipping off. Step 2: Lean the washer back at about a 45 degree angle, you may have to disconnect the water lines to achieve this. This puts the machine in a good position when you sit in front of it as you are installing the belt. Step 3: Install the tool over the motor sprocket leaving the grooves exposed. The belt fits in these grooves. Step 4: Slip the belt over the motor sprocket first and than the large sprocket wheel behind. This will take a little muscle as the belt is considerably smaller. After a couple of attempts at rotating the big sprocket the belt kept slipping off. I than took a plastic tie and strapped it around the belt and the big sprocket wheel, this kept the belt from slipping off as I rotated the wheel. Once the belt is on snip off the plastic tie and you are home free.

I watched the video and did the same thing that was shown. It was a very easy process!

I took off a couple of screws on the back of the control panel and took off the front of it. I removed a couple of screws from the part and the two electric connectors. Then I removed the part and placed in the replacement, and put back the connectors and screws. Now the machine works great!

Watched the video you had on how to replace it and did it like you showed and said and it worked fine.
