Washer wouldn't spin / drain
First I looked up the error codes in the washing machine technical information pamphlet I got when buying the machine to determine what the problem was. It indicated that the machine wouldn't spin. After doing a few more tests I couldn't find the error code that was displaying, but the machine wouldn't run at all and just did a terrible growling sound. I tilted the machine back to get access to the bottom. Undid the flimsy corregated covering held in by 4 screws. In the right front corner I found the pump. There were 2 tubs connected to the pump; I undid each (a simple squeeze off holder) and found nothing blocking either passage. The type of pump is build as one part, so I was unable to open it up.
I decided to order a new pump assuming that was the problem and in fact it was. Replacing the pump was a piece of case. I undid the two tubes, disconnected the electrical connector then removed it from the washer casing with 4 screws. The new pump was easy to install -- screwed it in place with the 4 screws, reconnect the electrical part (just a simple female / male connection), reconnect the 2 tubs, put the bottom covering back on, and that was it. It's working just fine now.

Coin ruined drain pum impeller blade / SUDS error
Unplug machine, turn on its side (have bucket to drain water from hose), unscrew drain hose bracket on back (so you can fully empty water still inside machine) unscrew bottom plastic cover, locate pump on left, pull out electrical connector, unscrew hose clamps, twist off hoses, unscrew pump and replace, and follow the above steps in reverse. I also made a coin trap from a sawed off plastic drain or downspout cover/protector and installed this inside the hose at the entry point to the pump, enlarging the holes enough to make sure they wouldn't easily clog with lint.

Main sping wore through Spring support bracket
In this model the 2 main springs hang from a bracket built into the top of the machines frame. For some reason one of the pring was installed without the protective plastic grommet (called the guide spring washer). The handened spring eventually wore through the softer metal bracket due to the vibration of the washer.
The purchsed plastic part fit into the bracket so firlmy that even with part of the bracket wore away it appears to be still strong wnough to support the weight of the tub. It has made it through 10 loads so far and it still working well.
Getting at the spring was easy but lifting the tub was heavy. Thanks - $4 part saved a $1000 washer.

washer did not complete the cycle due to bad pump
I turned the washer on its side disconnected the hoses attached to pump. Then unscrewed the pump attatched to the washer base; undid the power source and ordered the part from you.
Reattached the new pump to the washer: reconnected the power source and hoses to the new pump. Then flipped the washer upright and it works.

A quarter was lodged in the drain pump and demolished the impeller.
After two weeks with out a Washing machine in the RV, we were finally in a place long enough to order the part to fix it. I replaced this part before through Sears and although the price was similar,'it took two weeks to deliver the part. This was here the next day. One screw, two clamps and it was done.

Wouldn't spin or drain properly, suds error.
Since this was our 3rd time to remove this part, due to coins getting stuck in the pump, it went pretty easily. Removed the panel underneath, removed and replaced the pump, replaced everything as it was. Washer works great again!

A friend had leaned a little on the washer door, and the 10 + year old plastic broke.
Phillips screwdriver is only tool needed. There are about 14 screws around the perimeter, and my hand got tired, so I ended up getting my power driver to finish. Cleaned up all the surfaces while it was apart.
