There was no hot water coming out, I had already checked the screens
12 of 12 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Tricia from Glen Allen, VA
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Screw drivers, Wrench (Adjustable), Wrench set
First I removed the old part (2 screws)
Pulled off 4 wires (maybe the wrong word, I'm not a professional!
Put the new part in-turned the water on and had a stream of HOT water-yay
I had been putting this off because no one in my family had noticed (except me) and with my husband out of work it seemed like a low priority, bu t when my daughters came home for Christmas, they said "There's no hot water in the washing machine" so I took the plunge--I cannot believe I waited that long!
It literally took me seven minutes!

Would Not Turn On
12 of 13 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Reginald from Franklin, VA
  • Really Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Nutdriver, Pliers, Screw drivers
The two tabs that went under a stamped area of the frame were broken off the timer allowing it to move away from its mount when the switch was depressed. The new timer took care of the problem. A shame that a perfectly good timer had to be trashed because the plastic tabs broke off probably because of too much pressure exerted on the ti mer button.

Noticed 3 straps were broken when we replaced the hose
14 of 20 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Christine from Tempe, AZ
  • Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Pliers, Socket set
I removed the front cover, then unscrewed the top to expose the top. There are two screws that hold each strap, which turns out are different sizes, so I had to use two different sockets. I also had to remove the hose & plastic tube for the bleach. Once that was done, the replacement was easy, I replaced all 4 straps, reconnected the t ube for the bleach, screwed the top back on and snapped the front cover into place. This took maybe 30 minutes - and I am female!

washer overflowed while running
12 of 14 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Michael from Katy, TX
  • Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Pliers, Screw drivers, Wrench set
First, I removed the four screws to expose the control panel. Then I removed both of the wiring connections on the switch, unscrewed the two screws holding the switch, and removed it carefully. Take the time to look at the old switch because it does not simply lift off the panel. It has a sliding lock to keep it in place on the panel and you must be careful when you remove it or install a replacement. The new switch installed easily, so I reconnected the power and started the washer. Bingo!

Overflowing washer
12 of 16 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Paul from Perrysburg, OH
  • Really Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Nutdriver, Pliers, Screw drivers
Unplugged the washer and unscrewed the hot and cold filler hoses from the back of the machine. Removed the 6 screws holding the top together. Unscrewed the 2 water valve mounting screws. Pulled off the electrical wires from the leads. Unclipped the water feed hose clip. Reattached everything to the new water valve in reverse order. Put the screws holding the top panel in place back in.

For good measure, I also replaced the drain hose since I had noticed a little leakage there. Two screws and a little twisting and pushing was all that took.

Then I hooked everything back up and it worked like a charm. Finally, I went out to dinner with my wife on the money I saved!

Purchased used washin machine w/o drain hose
10 of 11 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Daniel from Oxford, GA
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Socket set
After realizing I had purchased a used washing machine without a drain hose I thought I would never find one, but then I found partselect.com. After easily locating the part on the web site from the detailed diagrams and model number I then ordered it. Receiving the part quickly I used a socket to remove the plastic connector that preve nts the hose from disconnecting once the washer is turned on. I fed the hose through the plastic connector and into the drain hole without any issues. I then used my one small socket to secruely fasten it back together. There was no additional tools or items needed to successfully attach the washer drain hose.

Washer tub fell sideways
12 of 17 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Chris from Tampa, FL
  • Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Screw drivers
Only took 2 days to ship. Took the screws out of the bottom rear panel to gain access to bottom of tub. Next pushed the two hidden tabs with flat screwdriver in the front to gain access to the top of tub, they are located straight inline with each side of the washer lid in seam between the top panel and the front side panel of washer. The n installed the new suspension rod and reassembled. You can find online videos that show how to disassemble appliances if you're not sure how to get them apart for repair. My first appliance repair was easy to do and saved a lot of $$$ vs paying for repair or purchasing a new unit.

Washer won't drain water

  • Ben from Lake Forest, CA
  • Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins

Took front panel off the washer and found the pump working but no water drained from the tub. Took the motor off the washer by removing the two 10mm screws and attaching hoses. Decided to take the motor apart and found the propeller shaft has broken off inside the pump. Ordered new motor from Partselect and replaced it. Washer is working fine now.
