NAV3335AWW Amana Washer - Instructions

I had to pop the top of the washer which is hinged in back. Raised it up and removed old hinges. replaced "hinges and hinge pins. It works like new.
Thanks for your "website". It was very easy finding the parts I needed.
Sincerely
Bill Hines

Once the machine was unplugged, I used the paint scraper to release the top of the washer by inserting it at right front and left front about two inches from the sides. The spring clip's were released and the top swung back on the rear clips . The lid hinges were exposed , removed and replaced with the the screws from the original parts, "as they do not" come with the replacement parts.
"Replacing first one side" then taking the lid and replacing the parts (pivot parts) attaching the- 2nd lid hinge piece at this time as they will not go together in any other fashion. Snap thewasher top down to close. I would suggest spraying a little silicon spray occaisonally, to avoid the parts failing prematureily. All told about 20 min. to do the job. Don't forget to plug in the washer!

Removed the screws and lid. Cleaned up lid and parts. Had to sand down pin as to tight on lid. Easy job.

Followed instructions and needed help lifting drum out but no problems. Parts fit perfect and unit is as smooth as new.

Viewing the video on how to replace the hinge pin was very helpful orienting me on how to get the job done. As I viewed the video, I thought to myself, "It couldn't be that easy!" Once I received the part in the mail, which was received quickly, I followed the video instructions in finished the repair in 5 minutes. It was a great experience and gave me a new online parts distributor that I will use in the future since I am a born "Do it Yourselfer." Thanks.

1- Unplug unit 2-disconnect water hoses 3-put unit in open area so you can work on it. 4-Open top cover with screw driver 5-take off front cover with appropriate socket 6-lay unit on it back to get access to the drive belt (take off). And take off water hose with plyers. 7-With vise grips take off the six springs. 8-Take tub assy out,and lay it on the floor upside down. 9-Loosen the screws to take out the old snubber ring, note ( when lossening screws,keep your finger on the bottom of the screw ,so you can feel how far to back the screws out,just enough to have access to the snubber ring,to take out,and install new one. )Remember not to take screws out completely. The unit is under spring tension. 10-Put washer back together in reverse order,and problem solved!

clicked on how to do it yourself on the part and video showed how to change it.

Spoke with a trusted repair man, described the problem best as I could. I smelled a burning rubber smell. Got on Internet for troubleshooting problems, 77% likely a drive belt. BINGO! Ordered a new belt, took old one off, cleaned the pulley ( it had burnt rubber stuck on it, difficult to remove) lightly sanded pulley just so it would be really smooth. replaced belt. Magic, it worked. I am no repair woman, but carefully listening and explaining helped. Oh, belt is under the very bottom of machine. Very easy to get to, just tilt back and lodge at an angle and make sure it doesn't move.

All i had to do was pull the washer machine from the wall and lean it back as far as i could and get under it and place the (DRIVE BELT) on the two smallest pulley then put the belt on the large pulley and my work was done it was very simple and easy.......

tilted the machine forward, worked off the old belt and put the new belt back on. no tools required, done in less than 5 minutes.

I followed the instructions on this site. The only difference was I discovered that the bottom hole for the springs actually has 2 holes. The rectangular long one is for the spring to be inserted into. The small hole is for the end of the spring to pop up through. Making sure you do this makes it easier to hook the spring into the top spot.

I found white shavings under the washer. Removed the front and back cover. Folded the top section back. Removed the drive belt. Removed the 6 suspension springs. Disconnected the drain hose from the tub. Lifted the tub assembly out of the base and replaced the snubber ring. Replaced the 6 suspension springs. Everything is working great now.

one person on each end of rod spring hook on center of rod one person on each end lifting rod with spring hook to required hole.

I used a putty knife to depress the holding clips under the front of the lid, then raised the lid to access the screws . Using a phillips head screwdriver I removed the screws holding the hinges and removed the door/lid then after removing the screw holding the broken pin, removed and replaced it with the new pin. and reinstalled the two screws on the hinges to reinstall the lid, and snapped the top back down. The whole thing took me less than 10 minuites to accomplish.
