Turned water off at wall and disconnected electrical power cord from outlet.
Tilted washer backward far enough to view water pump and bottom of tub, motor, etc.. Saw drip of water on one of the two clamps that secure the pump on shaft.
Removed the two hoses that are connected to pump (drained water in a pan). Using ... Read more screw driver, removed the two clamps that hold the pump on the shaft. Wet, greasy shaft allowed pump to slip off easily.
Installed large hose onto new pump, then put new pump onto shaft...then aligned four pump legs in place, then snapped the two clamps on to secure pump in place on shaft.
Installed second hose.

First I unplug electric plug, then turn off water lines & disconnected them. Pulled out the washer where I could easily work on it. Then removed the screws holding the back panel and top control knob panel by separating it from main body. (Spring clips on control panel were a bit tight to pop off.) Once removed back & top, the main bod

y of washer, hinges forward and pulls out and off. Now the pump is accessible, so I remove the two hoses clamps and pull off hoses, and pop off two spring clips holding pump on the motor. Then I slide new pump onto the motor, (line up flat spot on shaft with pump) and pop the spring clips back on and reconnect the hoses and clamps. Put main body, back and top control panel back together the opposite of the way I took it a part. Moved washer back and reconnected water lines and plugged in. No more water on the floor… (Note:) Washer leak happened on Sunday & Monday was holiday of coarse. So I ordered the new pump Sunday online and it arrived by Wednesday. Thank You PartSelect.com.

1. Placed the washer with the front side down.
2. Propped up the pump a few inches with a piece of wood, because the pump was resting against the front of the washer.
3. Disconnected the two hoses.
4. Unclipped the pump and it dropped off. The clips came off too.
5. Placed the new pump on the motor shaft, made sure it ... Read more was aligned properly.
6. Put the back clip on, then the forward clip.
7. Connected the hoses and installed a bottom pad that I previously removed to dry it out. Then picked up the washer and tested it. No Leaks. It took about half-an-hour, but really only about 5 minutes if a person knows exactly what they're doing.

8) Set washer back on all four legs and washed a load of clothes to confirm that the leak was fixed. Actually you could see a discolored spot where the water had been running from the pump shaft seal so it seemed pretty obvious that it was the culprit.

I tipped the washing machine over, removed two hose clamps from hoses, removed two clips that hold the water pump, put new pump on shaft, replaced clips, put hoses back on pump, and then i put clamps back on. I tipped machine back over and turned on washing machine and checked for leaks. It might have took 20 minutes to fix.

metal holding the pump in place with a large slotted screw driver. Once the metal holds were removed I was easily able to pull the water pump toward the front of the washing machine. Then I installed the new pump and snapped the two metal bands down upon the pump to hold it in place. I then proceeded to hook up both hoses to the pump and using a pair of pliers clamped the hoses securely in place. I then placed the machine back on the ground, plugged in the power supply and ran a test cycle to make sure it worked and that there were no leaks.

the two water hoses (inlet and outlet) from the pump, right on the bottom of the motor. The pump is held on by two metal clips that are pryed off with a screw driver. The pump pulls straight off of the drive shaft. To avoid frustration when setting the new pump, be sure to align the insert point on the pump with the shaft. The two retainer clips can be reset by hand. Reattach the inlet and outlet hoses, set the machine upright, reattach the drain line, hot and cold water lines and move back into place. Plug the machine in and turn on water sources. Easy-peasy.

The most difficult part was removing the washer cabinet. I (Brendan's wife) loosened a screw at the back of the endcap on either side of the console, unhooked it, and hinged it over the back. Next, I disconnected the door sensor and popped out the brass hooks (with a screwdriver) that held the cabinet to the back of the washer. Then, I

tilted the cabinet toward me and had my husband pull it off. The pump was perfectly exposed at the front of the motor. It was easy to pop off the clips that held it on, top and bottom, with a screwdriver. Then I disconnected the two plastic hoses (using a pair of pliers on the clamps), having placed a pan underneath to catch the water. Being a newer washer, the pump slid off the motor shaft very easily! I simply hooked up the new pump to the hoses, slid it on the shaft, popped the clips back in place, and had my husband help me replace the cabinet. I reconnected the door sensor, hooked the console in place, screwed in the two screws, and started a load to test the repair before going to eat dinner. Halfway through the meal I remembered the brass hooks and hurriedly stopped the load (just before it went into the spin cycle) in order to hinge back the console and replace them. Whew! Overall, much, much easier than I'd expected.

Followed the disassembly instructions given which were quite easy. I will admit I've done quite a bit of my own appliance repair before. VERY easy to replace the pump but unfortunately it wasn't what was leaking after reassembly. The corrugated drain hose was actually the leak source. Guess the smart thing to do would have been to go

after the easier and cheaper repair tries first. At least this way, I have a new pump which should now last the life of the unit and it doesn't leak. I was able to find the hose locally for about the same price as PartSelect. However the pump was much, much cheaper even including shipping from PartSelect. Quick shipping too but a little frustrating because the person on the phone wasn't able to tell me what warehouse the pump was coming from. If I knew it was going to be Dallas, I wouldn't have paid for quicker shipping. Overall, very good experience.

First disconnected water hoses, put machine on the back, removed hoses from the pump, then removed two metal retainers that hold the pump. Motor's shaft got so rusty, that I could not remove the pump. I spent two days (few hours each day), until I finally was able to snap it off. If that wasn't difficult enough, putting new pump on was

even harder. Metal rusted thru, and expanded from long leaking (previous owners probably had this problem for a while). I spent a lot of time filing it down with dremel tool, until finally I was able to attach the pump on the motor. I almost gave up in the process, but I'm glad I didn't, it works great. Motor might fail soon tho due to the rust.
