Washer timer would not advance.
I watched the video on the knob and clip, ordered the new knob only to find out I needed a new timer as well. The little gears were striped off at a closer look. So I ordered a new timer. They were sent out right away, that was nice. We both parts now, the install took about ten minutes.

agitator stopped working
I had no intention of trying to fix the washer myself after reading about how to do it, only because I didn't know what half of the words were referring to. But once I watched the video, and I saw that the part was going to cost less than $15.00 (shipping included), I thought I would at least try it before going out and buying a new machine. The washer in the video was slightly different than mine, but I recognized the parts from my machine and mine was actually easier to replace than the one in the video. I just pulled off the agitator, unbolted the old agitator coupling and replace it with the new one, bolted it back on and lined up the agitator grooves with coupling and that was it. It worked and saved me a lot of money. I once had an appliance repairman tell me that if your washer or dryer lasts 7 years nowadays, you should consider yourself lucky. Mine is 7 years old, so I thought I would have to replace it. I didn't particularly want to pay someone $100.00 to come to my house and tell me it couldn't be fixed if I was going to have to buy a new one. But fixing it myself was very easy. Written instructions never would have worked for me, but the video was very helpful. Thanks!

Start knob broke from being turned too far
Fortunately I watched the video on how to change the knob. I may not have noticed that the metal clip part of the old knob was still attached. Once the old part was removed, the new knob slid right into place.

washer would not stop filling with water
I removed the control panel and front panel of the machine exposing the water level pressure switch and hose. There was a clog in the hose that once cleaned out (with a shish kabab skewer)the problem was solved I didn't even need the switch which I returned and got a full refund no problem.

Washer knob was stripped.
Followed the I minute video instruction. Easily removed old knob and simply slipped on new knob -- all in 5 minutes. And It worked -- and saved me around $70 for a service call that would have required me to be home for two visits. The part was only $10, including shipping!!

After ordering the part on a Friday afternoon, I was amazed to have it delivered before 2PM the next day. The part was the timer knob and it was a perfect fit. It took less than 15 minutes to replace the faulty knob with the brand new one. Amazing!!!
