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.

Agitator did not move
With the instructions found online, this was a quick easy repair. I used youtube to have video to show the method. Used rope to pull up agitator, used wrench to loosen bolt and then put back together. Part was delivered really fast, I recommend Partselect.com for the parts you need!

Overflow when filling
My washer was overflowing when filling. Stopped filling when i unplugged from wall so i knew it was the pressure switch because the tube was fine. It took 28 hours from the time i placed the order to the time it hit my front porch. Got home from work and two minutes later i was washing clothes. Thanks for all the info, Tom

Washer would no longer spin---dry rotten belt
Gently turned washer over onto its front. Removed bottom metal panel (3 or 4 screws on each side). Removed old belt. Installed new belt. NOTE: The new belt is a tight and perfect fit, therefore it will not want fit on to both pulleys/ rotating discs. I have found the best method is to start the belt on the disc that drives the belt. Then place as much of the belt over the disc that sits below the washing machine drum as is possible(the spinning part)and then turn the belt by hand and the belt should pop on to the disc. If the belt goes on easily you may have the wrong belt as the belt must be tight to achieve the traction necessary for the washing machine to spin. HOPE THIS HELPS!! A screwdriver may be handy in helping to pry on the belt. Good look.

water wouldn't shut off.
My 45 year old son did it in the shop, and it only took a short time before we were washing clothers again, and no water on the floor. The part came through the day after I ordered them. Thank you very much
