RTW4640YQ1 Roper Washer - Instructions

I checked out the reviews and the recommendation of these "professionals", replaced the part easy enough when it came in. However, it didn't solve the problem. Got an actual professional to come in and see what the problem was, and they determined that gear oil was being leaked and it wasn't worth replacing.

Tried to get a refund and return the part. Was told absolutely not. The money back guarantee is a lie.

Pull the washer out from wall
Unplug the Washer
Close the supply line valves
Unscrew the supply lines, use bucket to catch line water
Remove 1 cover plate for elec lines (1 screw)
Remove 2 screws on edge of back plate for control panel
Slide long blade under front of control panel corners, pop the lock clips
Lay control panel forward - controls down
Compare new and old part - looks the same, wires, etc
Remove center screw on back plate cover to remove it
Unplug the elec wires connecting the valves and the control panel
Remove 2 screws holding the water valve outlet
swap out the old values for new valves
Reverse the process - step backwards and reassemble
Took me 36 minutes.
Tested the washer for Hot fill and later cold - both work

Removed old drain pump and found a sock in the inlet - must have burned out pump because after removing it pump was still defective. Installed new pump in about 30 minutes and off to the races no more issues

Everything worked perfectly---thanks to the suggestion of your call center agent. She suggested that since the replacement door handles were no longer available, I should consider repainting them--it worked like a charm. Please tell her she was a life saver. We rent that house in Fl and my returning tenants had complained about the discoloring refer handles. Thank you

Removed old striker ( 2 Phillips head screws ) replaced with new striker with the 2 screws and was done, easy fix...

I watched a video on you tube before making the repair, there was only one bad rod support, location right rear, I recommend watching a video on you tube first, it is very simple to change, however the replacement of the part was not the solution to the unbalanced load during the spin cycle, so I guess I have some research to do.

I followed the instructions, however I did not have a spot to hold the bar temporarily, so I drilled a hole in the corner frame to hook them in at the front of the machine. All else was easy and according to the video.

Machine works great now.

The video you sent me was very helpful told me the exact tools I needed and how to do it.
Thank you

I had taken the time to watch videos of this repair so when the switch arrived I knew what I had to do. Removing the screws to get the back cover off was simple as was installing the switch. No tricks here just watch the videos and your all set to do the job

Nothing to it. Just remember to put the insert in the knob, NOT on the selector stem. Line up the flat part of the insert with the flat part of the stem and push the knob in place.

Don NOT ram it on the selector stem. When it's seated, don't push any more. That's all there is to it. It works. If the pointer on the knob indicates the selector is lined up correctly, but it isn't, the problem is the selector, not the knob.
