My washer leaks water when it is not in use. I pulled the front cover and it appears to be leaking from the upper left of the washer. I lifted the valve which connects the water hoses. There appears to be a small plastic wheel that incoming water must pass through. This wheel turns freely on the cold side but not on the hot side. Could this be causing my leak or is it something else? If not, do you have any suggestions for repair?Thanks, Joe

Hi Joe, thank you for your question. That part would be the filter inside of your valve. It should not turn, however it would be strange if it was the reason for your leaking. It just makes sure that no debris comes in to your machine from your inlet water. We would suggest checking if the valve itself is leaking or not. Usually if you are getting a leak when your machine is not running at all, it is either because of the hose connections or the valve itself. We hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

My pump was making noise.I removed the hoses that go to it and found several small metal pieces lodged in the pump. I removed the pieces and put hoses back on but not sure where the metal pieces are coming from. They look to be like cast iron. Any ideas on what is going on? Thanks

Hello Marvin, thank you for contacting us. Might be something foreign was left in a clothes pocket and has come out in the wash. Also, look for any damages in the basket and hub assembly as the drain pump is connected to the tub basket and the basket is metallic. We hope this helps.

My washer (bought in 2011) is making a grinding noise while agitating. I'm pretty sure it's the clutch, I understand the nylon teeth wear out. Do you carry the clutch and associated parts?

Washing Machine was not draining water from tub.
1. Drained the wash tub by taking the drain hose from the back of the washing machine and dropping it below the tub - water flowed out of hose a lot easier than trying to suck water out of tub using a pump (tried this on the first time I tried to fix washer). (Washing machine on 2nd floor of house and didn't want water running on floor)<br />2. Removed the 2 bolts holding the Pump/Motor assembly to the machine.
3. Removed both hose clamps on the Pump/Motor assembly and removed Pump.
4. Attached the new drain inlet hose to the pump and then to the tub with the original hose clamps.
5. Attached the drain hose to the pump and then plugged in the 2 wires for the pump.
6. Plugged in the washing machine and everything worked.

NOTES:
1. Hardest part was working with hose clamps (spring type clamps) in the tight space under the machine.
2. Easier to fix since I pulled machine apart a few days before - removing the clog in the pump/motor assembly only to get everything back together to find out that the motor was dead. Still well worth the time and effort due to not having to go out and buy a new Machine...

washing machine would not go through all cycles or agitate
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.

machine would not drain all other functions seemed o.k
Aside from getting the wet clothes and most of the water out,the toughest part of the job for me was to figure out how to get inside the machine. I nearly wrecked the thing trying to lift the top panel. After some frustration I removed the star-type screws on back of the control panel and found, tucked away neatly, the documentation/parts list complete with instructions on how to remove the FRONT panel. Once I got inside it was easy to locate the pump. I ran the drain cycle for a moment to see if the pump turned at all. The original had an exposed fan so it was easy to see that indeed the motor was not turning. I inspected all the hose and electrical connections to make sure I had the tools I'd need and the savvy to replace the part(s) if I could locate them. I'm not much of a web-head, so I was a little surprised when I typed G.E. appliances and the search took me to partselect.com where I was pretty much coached through the procedure before I even ordered the part. The box arrived ahead of schedule (yay) and when I looked at the pump it didn't look much like the one I was replacing. But then I realized it was the same thing just ten years more advanced. I used a small pair of vise grips to pinch and lock the pipe clamps open. I know there is a plier made for this, but... Anyways, after loosening the clamps and sliding them away from the pump I pulled the hoses off and let the last of the rinse water still in them run down my shirt sleeve to my elbow. (optional, not recommended) Thus refreshed I then rummaged through my socket set and found what I needed to remove the 2 sheet metal mounting screws and disconnected the 2 power leads. I removed the faulty pump and proudly showed it to my wife. Unimpressed, she asked how much longer. I quickly reversed the procedure to install the new unit and confidently piled in a load of laundry. The cycle completed just fine and has done so since. I will and have recommmended partselect.com to friends and will use it again for sure.
