Also known as a Door Boot Seal and is used in front load washers. This part is used to keep the clothes inside the tub during the wash cycle. The folds in the bellow allow the tub to move separately from the door during the spin cycle.
NOTE: This part has been redesigned by the manufacturer and is interchangeable with the old design.

Really hard to put in ... they say it’s easy , it’s not !!!!! They should send someone to do it for you .. I shouldn’t need a new seal , therefore they should fix it for you !

Moldy smelly rubber cowl around door.
After viewing the installation video, I decided not to attempt this and caled a repairman. He cautioned me not to replace the rubber if the only reason is the moldy smell.

Old Bellow Ripped
remove top of machine by removing 3 screws along the top edge in the back of your machine and then sliding the top back and up. Then loosen the screws holding on the control panel enough to get to the 2 screws at the top of the door panel. Next remove bottom panel by removing 2 screws along bottom edge then pulling it free from snaps. The
... Read moren along the outside lip of the bellow, just inside the door, is a wire clip that is easily removed by prying it past rubber lip with a screw driver and lifting it away. Remove the door panel by removing the 2 screws you exposed by loosening the control panel and 2 more along the bottom that were exposed when removing bottom panel. After the door panel is removed and the bellow is completely exposed, you will find that it is held in place by a circular spring which wraps the whole way around the drum opening. Again it can be removed by prying it out away from the groove in which it sits with a screw driver. Now your machine is broken down as far as it needs to be. From here you can follow the directions included in your new bellow kit and put it back together by following these instructions in reverse.

Your installation instructions for this part mentions a wire clip and a circular spring which wraps the whole way around the drum opening (spring-held bellow clamp, partselect number ps1146211, manufacturer part number 134527100). Are replacements for wire clip and the below clamp included with the bellow kit?

My washer has started making holes. I seen a suggestion that if the below is torn or ripped that it will leave marks. Could this also be causing the holes?
For model number FAFW3511K
Hi Joe, Thank you for the question. It is possible if the bellow if damages it could be allowing the clamps that hold it in place catch the clothing. You should be able to feel around the bellow to see if the clamp is exposed. Hope this helps!
