The Part was very difficult to reach from the top.
There was not a video available on your site so I went to U-Tube and found one. Instead of reaching the part from the top I took off the rubber boot from the front and it was so much easier. Once I found and watched the video the entire repair took about 15 minutes. Now the washer works like new!!

Valve was split causing water leakage
The ONLY problem is the lack of space to work. I took out the dispenser tube to the left but even with that the bottom screw on the inlet valve was a LOT harder to get back in than out. After putting everything back together there was still a drip from the valve. So I uninstalled, used some liquid gasket material on the entire surface connection. Reinstalled n works fine.

Solenoid valve passing water to drum after cycle completes.
Remove top. (2 screws). Remove Plastic cover plate from back where hot cold connections are made (pry carefully to release tabs). Remove vent tube by turning and pulling out.(this allows easier access to second screw). Remove all three color coded electrical connections. Remove two screws that retain valve (this is where I recommend a magnetic bit. (don't drop either screw) Pull valve out, then up and back in to remove. Reverse to install. Good Luck.

Vibrating Washer During Spin Cycle
The video is very good. I have a stacked unit and didn't want to remove the dryer. It was difficult (but not impossible) to get the pins removed and replaced. I made a removal tool by drilling a 15/32" hole into the end of a 1"x1" piece of wood. Taping on this closed the pin safety and pushed it out.

Door handle broke on one end
I had to grip the broken piece that was still attached to the screw with a pair of needle nose pliers and then unscrew it from the back side. After taking the screw out of the other end,I just put the new handle on and screwed it in. Very easy!

Both shock absorbers were not working properly
The video was helpful and gave good ideas to look for, it was harder to reach the pins holding each end. I used a 6-8 inch dowel rod to remove and replace the plastic pins. First time always takes longer than advertised but I wasn't in a big hurry.

Error Code E43 - door lock problem - no spin
Removed retaining band around door boot and prized-off boot on left side to access door lock - simple screw driver replacement job. Deleted last error code. BUT - washer worked again for several days, and now code E43 is back and won't spin - problem is intermittent - so suspect it is NOT the door lock, but a wiring or control board problem. Ongoing.

Door lock mechanism broke and washer would not run
You must remove the top of the washer with screws on rear of washer. Top slides forward to remove. Once top is removed you can reach door lock mechanism from the top. Two screws must be removed from the front of the washer where lock enters mech. You can grab the mechanism from above by the wires that run to it. Undo wiring harness and insert new mehanism. Slide into place and attach in the front of washer with screws. This job is easy and can save you a lot on repair bills!

The door strike just broke (who makes a plastic door strike on a machine that gets used as much as a washer?)
This was easy as pie. I unscrewed the old & put on the new. That's it!
