Occasionally water will drip into the washtub after the cycle is complete and the clothes have been removed.
Hi Chris, thank you for your question. If you are getting a little bit of a leaking into your tub, you may need to take a look at your water inlet valve for being the issue. It could be that it is not shutting completely to stop the water from coming through. Good luck with your repair.

Randomly my washer will not drain and spin. I could do several loads of laundry and they all work fine, then it will randomly not drain and spin. I then turn the knob to drain and spin, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Any suggestions of what could be going on?
Hello Jennifer, thank you for your question. That sounds like an issue with the timer, or the lid switch. I would recommend testing/replacing those two parts. I hope this helps.

Easy
15 - 30 mins
After removing frt panel which prys off I checked for anything obvious like a loose belt. Then I jiggled the magnet switch located on the inside of the loading cover. I saw the machine start agitating the it stopped again when I stopped touching it. I ordered the new part and spliced it in with the wire crip tool. Now the machine is A ok.

A Bit Difficult
15 - 30 mins
Nutdriver
To diagnose, first I unhooked the washer: power, water supply, and drain pipe. I then slid the washer out, laying it on its front. With nutdriver, I unscrewed two screws that held the other end of the drain tube and removed it completely. Then, again with the nutdriver removed 4 screws from the back near the legs, two in between the leg
... Read mores in the middle, and approx. 4 to 6 on the bottom. This let me pull the bottom off partially to access the motor area. (I did did not take the bottom completely off, only about 2/3 off and let it bend over, as it was flexible tin) The belt was broken. After receiving the new belt, I positioned it between the pulley and the motor and between the drum and the big pulley. Then I rotated the big pulley, pulling the belt onto it as I rotated. At the same time, as I rotated, I pulled the other end of the belt on to the little pulley. Once it was on, I would put pressure on it as I turned the pulley, to jump the belt to the appropriate grooves on the little pulley. Note: the replacement belt had been modified, so it had one less groove than the pulley. I would have known this if I had read the insert that came with the belt first! Anyway, this was not a problem, only a design change. Also it was important to start the belt on the inside, so if it slipped, you didnt loose your bite. Total diagnostic, repair, and reassembly time: 30 minutes plus or minus. I had read other online forums that said you had to loosen the motor, etc. And I do know some type of a belt installation tool was offered on line, but I got along fine with my installation method. An extra set of hands would have been helpful, but not necessary.

Really Easy
Less than 15 mins
Simply put hands, one under each side of the agitaror and pulled up. The part snapped off very easily. I then placed the new part in the tub and pressed down. Extremely easy, should have done it sooner!
