My fabric dispenser seems to be getting water in it, and over flowing
For model number GTW860SSJ1WS
Hello Ken, thank you for your question. We would recommend cleaning out the dispenser Part #: PS8756956 and hose assembly Part #: PS8757200 that carries water to the unit. If that doesn't fix the issue, the water valve should be tested to be sure there it is not sticking open and allowing too much water to come to the unit. I hope this helps.
This procedure was completely different from any other Tub Seal I've done and in my opinion needs 2 people. The first thing to note is that this seal must be removed from the bottom of the outer tub. Also, the top of this machine does not hinge in back. The typical clips are in front, but the back has 2 screws that must be removed. Since
... Read morethe wiring was too involved to completely separate the top from the base, I had to improvise a stand to hold the top while the rest of the process was completed - keep slack on all remaining connected wires. The motor, clutch and bearing plate must be removed from the bottom in order to access the Tub Seal. Below are the steps I did to complete the process: - Remove Control Panel Cover (rear) - Disconnect as many wire harness plugs as possible from Control Board (Note positions for reassembly - pictures work well) - Remove Pressure Switch - Disconnect Detergent and Softener dispense hoses from Machine Top - Rotate top 180 degrees (Flat-Spin) and position so no strain is on the still connected wires. - Remove Tub Cover - Remove Impeller (Agitator) from inside tub. - Remove Tub Nut - Note Left handed Threads (I used 1/2" Drive Impact) - Remove rear Cross Bar from cabinet (Cross Bar must be removed since tub will not fit through opening. Once removed it must be held in place or outer tub will fall) - Remove Inner Tub - This tub is heavy and fluid-balanced. Mine required 2 people to wobble and pull for removal. - Replace Cross bar to keep unit stable - Lay machine on its side - use care not stretch or pull any wires. - Remove motor, (Rotor and Stator) - Remove Clutch and wires - Loosen all wire ties (Use tiny screwdriver to release ties - Do Not remove the tie mount) securing wires to Bearing Plate and push wires to the outside edge of bearing Plate - Remove all screws securing Bearing Plate to Outer Tub - Use flat-head Screwdriver to gently pry Bearing Plate away from outer tub (Quite Heavy - Use Care) - Tub Seal is now exposed on top of Bearing Plate and can now be removed and replaced (Be sure to clean all seal mating surfaces and lubricate with dish soap) - Reverse this sequence in the exact order for re-assembly taking care to reconnect all wiring plugs and ground wires. - During Re-assembly I used Blue Loctite on all bolts securing the Clutch, Stator, and Rotor as I found several very loose on my machine
