Two knobs were cracked and I had already replaced one or two of them before. They seem to crack very easily.

Just pulled the broken knobs off and pushed the new ones on. Very easy!!!!!

Old knobs were stripped and would not turn.

We decided to see if this was the problem so we ordered replacement knobs, and IT DID!

Knob had broken

Had already pulled off the broken knob--actually it had fallen off in my hand. Opened the package, pulled out the knob and pushed it onto the knob shaft. Simple. Less than one minute.

My washer started making a loud, screeching noise and then stopped working.

Following the easy instructions on PartSelect's website, I first removed the screws from the bottom, front of the washer. Then, using the putty knife, I unhooked the clips holding the washer top to the front and pulled off the front. I pushed in the belt wheel and removed the old belt, which was being held on by one strand. Then, I put on the new belt, put the front back on, replaced the screws and then pushed the washer lid back down over the clips. It worked perfectly and took less than 15 minutes and cost me next to nothing. Thanks for a great site!

Washer won't drain

My wife done the repair while I was out of town. She never tries to won't on anything in fear that she will mess it up.But she said she had it fixed in ten minutes. Just take the hoses off the pump, unplug, and unbolt where mounted. Then reverse to put on new one. Partselect is always very prompt to sent my parts and I have never had an issue with anything. I will buy all my parts from them from now on.
