Because I live alone, the washer is very heavy so I just used some sliding robots under the legs of washer so I could slide it out from the wall by myslef after removing the small plate in the back to accfess the water pump I used the nut driver to remove the 3 screws holding the pump in place, but I used the pliers to remove the 2 water hoses first then I mounted the water pump back into place, installed both hoses again then I tilted it back against the wall while re installing the belt then I pushed it back against the wall and removed the sliders so I could make sure it was back level this was a very easy repair even if you never fixed any thing before the belt replacement was even more simple to replace because the motor is springloaded so you just had to pull on it enough to remove it from the pulleys
I found on-line that replacing the snubber ring may fix the problem and ordered the part. With the instructions also downloaded I started taking the washer apart. Without the instructions the task would have been more difficult and possibly disastrous as I might have taken the bolts out that tighten down the snubber ring. All went well with a little patience. The washer works good.
I had to raise the top of the washer and take off the front pannel. It was not too hard to replace the pump except that it was in the back corner and it was hard to reach the bolts to remove and install the new pump.
open top,remove back panel.then laid on the side and removed belt.remove hose from tub to pump.removed small hose for fill level.Hard part was to remove springs from tub.Then pull tub and transmission out of housing.Remove pulley from shaft.Lossen screws around snubber ring but do not remove them.Remove old snubber ring.clean surfaces with alcohol.install new snubber ring and assemble in reverse order.
Made an awful sqealing noise and did not spin the water out all the way
Leaned the washer back and propped it up and changed the belt. This is the first time ever repairing an appliance. I feel very good about myself as I am 49 yrs old and did not have to call a repairman for this.
I pulled the washer away from the wall so that I could lean it back at an angle. I removed the old belt and put the new one on. I started with the smaller pulley first and put the belt into the groove. Next I went to the next larger pulley and did the same thing. Then I went to the largest pulley and started to put the belt into the groove and started turning the pulley by hand. The belt went right on.
Troubleshoot problem, removed front, removed drive belt, removed pump with pulley. Note, new pump did not have black plate, installed worked great.Thanks
Turned it over to my 35-year old son who removed pump and pulley assembly and the old drive belt, then simply replaced with new assembly and belt from PartSelect! Could not have been easier - from my viewpoint.
washing machine filled with water, nothing else happened.
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.......
I first opoen the front panel of the washer. That was a bit tricky. Had to slide a thin blade between the top of the washer and the front panel, pushed in to release the "clamp" and gently raise the top, it hinges on the back. The rest was undoing three bolts, refit the new pump and put the belt back on. The part cost me less then $65.00. The repair estimate by the local repair man was $ 250.00. I am very happy.
Raised washer. Identified problem. Removed from panel, gaining access to drain pump. Removed hoses, replaced pump. NOTE: I used blue Loctite on pump mounting bolts. Reinstalled from panel, lowered washer, cleaned drum. Ran one (1) cycle with hot water and bleach ONLY.
